Hers a puzzle for the Digi-TV freaks?

[The Natural Philosopher]

We have three (presumably) identical sony STB's attached to three separate TV's all driven by boosted signals from a labgear dist amp.

Last night ONE, and only ONE was giving either 'no audio/video or a red screen announcing that yes, you had BBC4, but it wasn't actually on.

The other two were showing the Copenhagen film.

All showed 100% signal level and quality.

By going into the manual tune section, I was able to pull BBC4 up on channel 39..

I selected it, and then on exiting the menu, but not before, finally normal service was resumed.

I cannot for the life of me puzzle this one out...anyone got any ideas?

I wonder if he'd paid the £5 for the night's viewing? .... ummmmm... at least I've heard that's the current rate.

If you select BBC3 or BBC4 before 7:00pm then the red screen stays on after 7:00pm and you have to select another channel and then go back to BBC3 or 4 to get the real picture. There's a note to this effect on the red screen.

Yerrs. But this was after 7pm. I wonder if the clock on that unit is wrong..
