Report today on AVForums that it has been fixed - at least ex Belmont. Any confirmation from people here?

PSB2 aka D3&4 is now C&M in the cloud by BT for the companies concerned... https://www.mediaandbroadcast.bt.com/case-studies/coding-and-multiplex.html Complaints to the Broadcasters (ITV, C4, C5) would be the correct route -- plus Everything TV (aka Freeview) and maybe Ofcom. I would be...

Waltham doesn't broadcast on frequency ch48. AFAIK adjacent channel DTT is not the issue it was with analogue either. 5G 700 MHz filters will have insertion losses and lose some not entirely insignificant amount (up to 3dB?) at ch48 probably. Not that all of us have (or need) such filtering...

As alluded to in the thread already we have had steady High Pressure about recently that might affect your reception https://www.bbc.co.uk/reception/work-warning/weather-warning/waw-high-pressure That is now changing, so stuff might improve (or not). Location (approx) or your Freeview...

Installing the Custom Firmware will allow power off of the -T2 via the WebIF remote without affecting the 4k box state.

I believe this is a known issue with the (Arris made) freesat 4k/recordable box https://www.freesat.co.uk/help/faqs/remote-interference? and all Humax PVRs. No fix as far as I know. See AVForums and DigitalSpy threads on the Arris / freesat 4k box for confirmation.

250 on my HDR-Fox-T2 ex Sandy Heath is fine, the colourful MHEG slate appears quite quickly. It's not my default channel on switch on if that makes a difference. My Panny OLED being HbbTV capable produces just a black screen for a variable length of time before a stark b&w text message appears...

But how? Re-pointing an aerial? Switching between aerials? We need @Peter H to come back and answer the transmitters and reception issue questions if possible. Remember these PVRs generally don't play well with a mix of English and Welsh EPGs.

I didn't. I try not to assume too much. I can't think of a location where Wenvoe would be used but there is a Vp relay of West ITV/Bristol BBC in a similar direction off the top of my head. {Relays being Vp and mains Hp should need two aerials for best reception but RF is an art as much as a...

I'd agree with that! Also what does a TV report as signal level/quality from the same muliplex frequencies. If the same poor reception for English TV then it's signal related not tuner sensitivity. I'd also be interested in exactly which two transmitters are involved and how the two aerials...

It is 1080p on compatible devices - as is UHD in the "trial". That's been discussed and explained (almost ad nauseum, here and elsewhere). BBC simply have higher expenditure and development priorities (as much as I'd also like iPlayer to be 5.1 surround sound system viewers are still in a...

Analogue TV Teletext services (BBC Ceefax, ITV Oracle/Teletext Ltd) were pretty revolutionary in providing information to the Public (and Trade) in an era (1974-75 onwards) where there was no other way so universally available. (Fax, ticker tape news feeds, telegrams and voice telephony being...

Friend needs to get Internet installed? HbbTV went live in 2017 and some sets still support both MHEG and HbbTV, I suspect. https://www.bbc.co.uk/reception/red-button Things move on... AM radio is ceasing... other (current) TV and Radio broadcasting will follow and be replaced by a modern...

Thanks for the head up. Strangely (at least some of) those channels are duplicated, on different Tps, and still MP2 while others are MP4 according to scans taken on https://www.digitalbitrate.com/dtv.php?live=69&mux=11954&liste=2&lang=en

Sunwoofer-Amp is an inanimate object so IT would be correct English; although in French and German it is a masculine noun, so I'll forgive you. ;) As to the other part - "waning powers" - again. :cool:
