BBC HD / ITV HD - Sever Pixelation
Morning all,

Has anyone suffered from severe pixelation / sound quality issues on BBC and ITV HD channels ??

Ive noticed these channels getting progressively worse over the last week, now at the point where the channels are now unwatchable. Other HD channels are fine.

I've rebooted, power cycled etc several times.

Put a call in last night and prognosis was that there maybe a problem with the V+ box .... Engineer visit Monday morning.

Any ideas of the root cause ???

No issues in Edinburgh, although there is always a single breakup of picture at the start of the one show... every night! On both HD and SD.

Otherwise I never have PQ issues with either BBC or ITV, could well be your box/HDMI cable?
