A couple of weeks ago I noticed all my recordings were failing - I didn't spot it straight away as mostly they were just re-runs I'd seen 10x over. The feed to my npvr box is from a loft aerial via a powered splitter / amplifier to my 4x DVB-T cards.
Can't help feeling somebody somewhere has been screwing with something.
On or about the 10th December? That was when the new HD mux's started - they seem to be squeezing them in with more chance of Co-channel interference.
But hey it doesn't matter people only watch TV on a 4" screen now-a-days. Sky are complaining that there isn't enough terrestrial frequencies being released for mobile communications - bet they would change their tune if forced to provide free satellite for everyone. - end of rant
Also weather conditions the last couple of weeks have been conducive for interference.
It's not an overly complicated system - it's more - overly simple operatives
