hi
i'm not very technically gifted and i'm hoping that someone might be able to help me with a problem i've got, that's probably really easy to fix but is completely baffling me.
i am trying to learn german and have a satellite dish pointing at 19.2e to pick up the multitude of german fta tv channels. there was a major rejig of the fta hd channels at the end of april where several additions channels became available with some existing channels shifting their frequencies as well. before the shift, i had no problems with reception for any of the channels, but afterwards while reception of some channels continue to be fine, others have a developed a juddering problem where the picture is continuously freezing for about a fifth of a second at a time (audio is fine).
what is weird is that the problem sometimes occurs on channels where there was no change in frequency, bit rate etc (so one day it was fine, the next it judders). new channels are either fine or juddery depending on the transponder.
what is even weirder is that when i hooked up an older satellite box and rescanned, i got the exact opposite problem - all the hd channels that judder on my current box are fine, but all the ones that are fine on my current box now judder on this one.
it must be a box problem. i've tried editing transponders, deleting transponders, adding new transponders, fiddling with the video outputs etc until i'm blue in the face, but still the judders come.
any ideas?
