Hello,

For many months now I have not been able to get Fiver, Five USA or Virgin One on my Humax Digital Television. I used to be able to. I miss my Sunday CSI fix! Obviously I have rescanned numerous times but it doesn't make a difference. When I look at the details it says the signal is strong but quality is poor, under 10%. If anyone has any bright ideas I'd be grateful.

Who is the new announcer that the station is using? his low bland voice is nearly inaudiable to us who are hard of hearing. If it is intentional, to be cool or something it is not, its just annoying.

David: 5* and 5 USA are encrypted and require at least a 'Freesat from Sky' viewing card. If you have a Sky subscription and they don't appear in the EPG it may be that they're not available in Ireland.

You can try using Add Channels, but it probably won't work. Still, the details you need are: 12422 MHz, H polarization, 27500 baud FEC 2/3, and the stream IDs are 7710 (5 USA), 7711 (5 USA +1), 7715 (5*) and 7716 (5* +1).

I re-tuned my Freeview box (not Freeview plus) to get BBC Alba - but 5 USA and 5* have disappeared. I have re-tuned several times using automatic and manual search but they haven't tuned in.

Anyone help? CSI was my main viewing.

Living in Highlands and Islands.
