    missing channels

    today ive had a problem not being able to receive itv or channel 4. all the screen says is not able to find a signal. i have no other problems getting channels. anyone else had this today? any tips on what to do? i have re-scanned a few times and still nothing.

    also just a quick q on my SV5 i cant seem to get the menu bar along the bottom off the screen.

      Are you doing a direct scan? ie no splitters, you could also do a manual scan on that channel.

        we have a splitter as we have a box in living and dining room. was just a auto scan not manual.

          factory reset first 0000 to delete,power off at back for a min/on remove any splitters first,auto scan your provider and emu or keycode to on/enable and exit out.
          you need a full strength signal,no splitters or extensions when you scan.

              Same problem for me today - no ITV or channel 4.
              Was working fine the other day.

              Mansfield area.

              None of the ITV or C4 options work - expect for 'ITV Audio Desc' and 'Channel 4 Audio Desc'.
              So I'm using them in the mean time (hopefully I will have the option to turn the narrator off).

                      it is well known for outside tps to go down if faulty or upgrading,if you have done all as in no 5 post you may have to wait for provider to fix the problem.
