U&Drama Aspect Ratio problems?

[EEPhil]

I have my Aura's aspect ratio setting on auto (not full) as it usually copes with most channels. Last night (12/10/24) I tried to watch U&Drama but every few seconds the picture would go from 16:9 to 4:3 and then straight back to 16:9. My TV didn't do that. (I haven't checked other Humaxes, yet). Changing the Aura to full seems to stop the switching, but can cause problems with 4:3 broadcasts on other channels. I think this has happened before on one of the "U" channels.

Is this observation unique to my setup or have other users spotted something similar?

Deja vu? Also affects my HDR Fox T2.

I noticed a few glitches on a recent U&Drama recording (but that's on different mux). On closer inspection it looks like screen aspect ratio change in the middle of a scene! I usually have Menu/Settings/Preferences/Video/Display Format/Pillarbox on the HDR. But this recording flickers every now...

Previous problems like this occurred on some (maybe all) of my Humax devices, but rarely on a TV. I remember it happening on Dave and Yesterday. That seems to have stopped. Admittedly I haven't watched Drama for a while, but last night was a pain! Looks like UKTV could do with some new equipment rather than shifting it between channels.
