    Audio dropouts - PBS America ?

    Yeah I bought an LG TV a few years ago and suffered it on all channels. So I sent the TV back. This issue seems recent and channel specific.

    Audio dropouts - PBS America ?

    Anyone else getting split second audio dropouts every few minutes on PBS America ? May be on other channels too but PBS is the only channel I watch that I noticed it on. Bizarrely.. I only seem to get it on Live TV. Haven't noticed it on any recordings.

    Multiple Failed Recordings

    Yeah I've had full normal signal on my HD channel though. Its only the name that has changed. Which I never thought would be affecting my recordings. But it has been.

    Reasons for a 0 minute recording fail ?

    Yes I have. All good lately. It'll probably mess up again once the F1 season starts. Sods law init.

    Yep. F1 was what triggered me to post this. Good to know its not the box.

    Reasons for a 0 minute recording fail ?

    I seem to be getting much more of these lately. Is it always a broadcaster issue or maybe the slow decline of my aging box ? There was one day after the Queen had died where pretty much every recording that day failed.. which after an initial panic I put down the the EPG had just melted down...

    Folder Names - Old ones sticking around

    My biggest bugbear with my beloved Hummy is the folder names not being updated/updatable. Example of what I mean... I recorded the first F1 Grand Prix of the year, the Bahrain GP. Now every GP thats recorded is placed in a folder it names "The Bahrain GP". Even if I delete that folder and...

    Signal - Strength / Quality

    It is ARQ-B giving me 30% Although viewing is OK now I have suffered with dropouts in the past and was just looking at it whilst everything is working (rather than trying to figure it out when I have no signal at all) I'm not overly worried, just thought 30% is quite low considering my...
