Has anyone else noticed a dramatic downturn in the picture quality on all the Channel 4 stations? Pictures keep going blocky sound not matching picture, slight picture jumps etc. Its been like it for a week or so. Its on all 4 of our sky box's and I noticed it on the caravan box last weekend while we were away so it cant be my dish.

Theres a long thread about it over on the DS forum somewhere. Ive got the Tsunami programme on here on my DB atm and havent noticed any problems yet.

Hi, the problem is not there anymore?

There is a subscription card in one system, Freesat card in 2 other systems (one of these used in caravan box as well) and very old x subscription card in other system

Yes this problem will come and go. You have too much signal! You must decrease your signal. This happened with my freeview on my 52'' tv. I decreased it and it had fab quality. Just decrease it a bit. Do it has soon as possible then just reply back to me. Thanks.

badboy147 · 01-01-10, 05:15 PM

Well if it does happen again just use my advice.
