When I was watching ntl last night I kept thinking I could hear another conversation, perhaps from outside, or the flat next door. It was sending me slightly mad.

This morning I noticed that it's actually the audio of the ntl channel I'm watching being repeated, quietly, about a second behind the normal audio. This is happening on ITV, C4 and possibly others.

Now, it might be a coincidence, but I had an engineer around on tuesday to fix some picture breakup and audio sync issues. He fixed the connector on the cable going into the STB and boosted the signal at the cabinet because it's crowded and I'm on a 2 or 3-way splitter. I didn't notice the problem that day though. I've rebooted the STB and it's still doing it.

Is this an ntl problem affecting others (I'm in the CB1 postcode) or is something wrong with my service?
