Pete: Anyone experiencing odd problems such as you have described is always advised to carry out a complete default reset on the box to return it to its original state, then this action being followed by a fresh auto-tune.
The reason for this being necessary is because that in common with all digital equipment glitches can always occur when updates etc are taking place that results in the data being corrupted, and with complete elimination of whats already stored being the only way of getting around the problem.

My HD channels are breaking up today. (They have been all right up till now - although last night there was an occasional breakup but only for a second if that.
Checked other Freeview channels (non HD) and they seem to be okay.
Are there any problems at the transmitter ahead of switchover ?

Hi, I hope someone can help. I purchased a Samsung UE32D5520 with Freeview HD at the weekend. My postcode is KT10 0JY and I have quite a big aerial in my loft (installed in 2008) which faces East.
I've been able to get all the Freeview channels but none of the Freeview HD Channels. I tried a manual tune on C31 (554.0MHz) but am getting no signal on this specific channel.
I'm also only getting 576i on all the other channels, I'm not sure if that's normal?
Thanks in advance.
