Angry V+ Fast Forward Problem

I had my old Pace box replaced with a new Samsung V+HD box & am having a problem with the fast forward. At 2x the picture is great but 6x & upwards the picture jerks & is unwatchable.

Any-one know if this is usual with the Samsung box?

Do you mean on HD channels?, mine has always been more 'jerky' on HD, probably due to the amount of data contained.

I've checked this out & it is only on HD, SD is fine.

Looks like I'll just have to live with it.

Many thanks.

If you think the V+ box is jerky then try fast forwarding a Sky HD box,the fastest you can control the fast forward is X12,at X30 it skips around 15 seconds a frame!!
