Hi all, received my eurovox 5000 pvr today. Not flashed yet either. I have a V+ connected via hdmi and perfect picture. On the eurovox I get pixeling / jumping and I have tried to manually adjust frequency but dont change. Im thinking it may be the scart lead?

I also bought the PVR when they first came out and have not had as much interference. Think you might be as well to swap scart lead and see. Don't forget, v****n may be playing games with us all i.e. key rolls etc.. Hope you sort it out mate.

Cheers stacey, gonna keep searching for tips/suggestions, will try an flash it later see if that make any difference along with a decent scart lead.

Ok got a variable attenuator and while it sorted some channels it made others a lot worse. So have been adjusting it but then the others go back, seems theres no inbetween to sort them all. Will try a better scart lead and see if that works.

it may help to get replys if you actualy post what the signal levels are on good and bad chans also try the receiver without any splitters in line

Hi, they are between 79%-85% on most. Tried it with no splitter as was going to do away with the v+ completely but it didn't make any difference. Have had to redo the position of the attenuator after putting the new keys in sports1 was really bad.
