Ginx tv channel poor with serious freezing intermitent

plus also channel has sound pop worried this might damage audio equipment. It can be anything from 3 secs to fully 20 seconds picture freeze

Only channel to do this.

very intermittent but at least once hour you will get the problem.

Not sure if fault coming from virgin to be fair as its only channel doing it.

No problems here with ginx tv so maybe its worth giving VM a ring to boost the signal.

Same here, but I don't think it's signal level related. All other channels are fine.

yep usually only small last night during blurb was much bigger which worryingly is it getting worse.

Can popping damage audio in tv or say hifi headphones as ccan be quite nasty.

dav agreed getting impression too more I think possible ginx tv fault

Who owns ginx gamespot? only thinking this because lucy james.
