Technical fault
Over the past few days I have experienced a blue screen with
'There is a technical fault with this channel. Please try again later.
Across the top.
This happens on various channels and comes and goes.
It has resulted in several recordings failing or only part recording.
Has happened on bbc1, bbc2 itv as well as some sky channels.
Has anyone got any suggestions?j8

Re: Technical fault
Thanks for the link.
