Pieman · 02-06-2004, 22:35

Evening all - can anyone ask whether there are problems in the Solent area.....are box is only giving certain channels.....

Upon unplugging / removing card / putting it all back in - we are getting the error "there are no channels available - check connections"

The confusing part is tonight occassionally we can watch channel 4 = then change channels nothing - back to 4 and nothing.....

Any help / advice appreciated !!!!

Cheers!!!

I've only just got on here this evening but everything seems to be fine here in Portsmouth, I've just skimmed through a whole load of channels with no problems.

Thanks Graham - will check this evening if it's still playing up will get a Engineer out......

Box decided it had had enough - spoke to CS last night - went through some diags with no joy - then put out for an engineer visit.....

Engineer's turned up this evening - checked it - signal being received - box not wanting to display it !

Our old Pace 1000 box has now been replaced with a shiny new silver Samsung box (with new remote etc). Looks smart - seems a little speedier (certainly on startup - just hope we don't have to restart that often

)......

Cheers......

I'd be very interested in your views of how the Samsung performs, since I've been involved with it on and off for a year. Thanks. Feel free to drop me your smart card number or STB MAC address if you want me to check the box remotely.

Are you saying it was a problem with your box?
My Mum is in Portsmouth , and she has had the same problem since Thursday - half the channels are fine , the rest say "There is a problem displaying this channel . Please try again later".
Any ideas?
