My System: fortecstar passion hd 80cm dish
Digitalb hd channels sound but no picture

hi im a newbie ive got the passion hd box and scanned in the new hd channels on Digitalb they worked perfect for about 3 days .They are still there but no picture.
I know is sounds daft but if i turn the channels over quick it sometimes comes on.
But even dafter if i change the audio from eng to whatever the other lang is quickly, the pic comes on untill i turn over to watch somthing else.
Ive tryed to delete all channels and rescan somtimes it works and other times it dosent.
any help would be great!!!

They're fully 'Conaxed' now. They were FTA for a day or so when they arrived on the new TP, but not viewable now unless you have a legit card.

Interesting that you are (still?) able to open them occasionally - is this still the case with your box?

My System: fortecstar passion hd 80cm dish

yes i put my s*y lead into my hd box and picked up bbc hd.
But to be honest i only watched bbc hd for an hour and then scanned back to my digitalb package.
when i scanned back in i found there was new digitalb hd channels and all worked for about3/4 days with no problem.then i turn over to the sports channels (1-5) and the hd channels only come on if i mess around turning them over quickly or changing the audio quickly.

That's Fortecstar for you. Their service usually ends at point of sale I'm afraid.

Can't help with those channels as I don't have a DigitAlb card, sorry.

Did anyone get answer to this problem?

I don't have an HD card but do have the BBC HD channel just can't see it. Would be great to get a picture as well.

This thread was regarding the HD channels on DigitAlb, a subscription service on 16E.
I believe the HD channels were paired, card to receiver, so even though you can get a legitimate subscription card you could not open the HD channels without using the legitimate receiver.
If you are experiencing problems with BBC HD it would be best if you start a new thread in the relevant forum.

Quite right these HD channels are paired to a legit card and legit Rx.
otherwise no joy.
