First had the problem on U & Gold but it seems to be all the "U" channels.
Video pauses and pixellates, and now it gets stuck repeating the same couple of seconds over and over. At one point subtitles came on all by themselves.
All other channels are perfect.
Anyone else seeing this issue?

U buffering
I'm getting buffering on U and Drama. It's also showing subtitles despite them being switched off. Other channels seem fine.

Anyone else having issues with U&Drama programmes freezing and pixelating and can't turn subtitles off? I have contacted UKTV and they are not aware of any issues.All other sky channels are fine and unaffected.
