Technical fault on Channel 5
For the last few days our TV is showing a blue screen saying that there is a technical fault with Channel 5 and its derivatives (e.g. 5+1). I've tried rebooting, updating the software etc. to no avail. Has anyone else experienced, and fixed this issue, or can give advice? Please note, I am not overly technical! Thanks in advance.

Re: Technical fault on Channel 5
Today is for me the First day in that i revive Channel 5 HD Again since the Change to DVB-S2.
I hope they have increased the Sending Power, and it stays so.
