    even quicker way is push info twice on the channel you have lost note down the frequency i.e 635.00 go to user installation (pin oooo) find the frequency push ok it will put a tick there then push the coloured button for manual scan. its a lot faster

      Will this work for channels that are jumping/skipping too?

        worth a try m8 , but jumping and skipping ie. digital tiling is due to weak signal check your feed no splitters try a booster.

          Cool, thanks.

          Quick question.

          I have my splitter directly from the cable coming in to the home and then seperate cables going to the box and modem.

          Is this correct?

            You may have to lose the splitter and just run one box to stop the pixelation...or a booster if ya want to run both boxes together...press info twice on the remote on the bad channels...ya lookin for 82-85 % for the euro to run at its best.

                What do you mean by this?

                I am running a splitter in order to run the EuroVox and cable modem in the same room.

                It was subscribed for Broadband only, so never had an original cable box.

                I do pay for a Virgin subscription, but this is downstairs.

                EDIT:

                put a booster where your cable is coming in use the booster as a splitter good luck
                I may give this a try, thanks.

                              you might have too strong a signal, where you would need to add an attenuator ( think its spelt right ) I had to add a 3db one a few years back to get a clear pic.
