We were having a similar problem on both our TiVo and V+ boxes. We were suffering from picture break up on HD channels, SD channels were fine. We had 5 engineer visits who, to be fair, tried all that they could to get it working. I eventually told customer service that I would be cancelling the TV in January when the contract expires. Not long after we received a call from the network team. Chap turns up a couple of days later, diagnoses it as a faulty amp in the green box. Swapped it out the next day and all has been fine since. Could that be the surge of your problem maybe?
