Thanks Roy for your experience on the t4000. My one and only real issue with the t2100 are the apps. Like I say the UI generally is very good but the apps are sluggish to navigate and a recent use of the NowTv app for streaming sport was frequently …

@"John L" Yes I think the theory is a sound one. I wonder how many people are experiencing this same issue but won’t know of or discover this forum. I can’t see BT or PlusNet etc being that technically helpful on this ? BTW. Does anyone know if the…

Yea no problem at all Roy. I’ve responded in the other thread.

@Cliff Roy mentioned this thread to me as I previously had similar problems as described here. My issue was due to IR interference. To describe my problem was that my TV picture mode (on a plasma TV) was set to the ‘dynamic’ mode which was somehow…

Still rock solid. Yes I’m fairly confident it’s spectrum changes too. However, I’ll leave the maths up to Youview Towers :smile: Roy. I’m a digital electronic engineer myself but never did get on with the analogue and RF side of electronics. I won…

@Mc2 your description of the problem is what I experienced too. The test to see if it is related to the hdmi cable is to change your t2100 bt box video output settings to 1080i. If the signal quality is then 100%, or something a lot more stable, the…

Yes and you saved me a purchase on a pvr change to a Manhattan, on top of any money I would have wasted on attenuators and higher dB shielded coaxial cable. Plus I didn’t realise poorly shielded hdmi cables could cause an interference problem so som…

Changed the hdmi cable connected to the BT box from something that was admittedly cheap to one I had in storage which seems better quality - much thicker cable and connectors look of higher quality. Gold coloured but probably not a factor. Anyway, c…

Wow. It’s sorted it. 100% signal quality and doesn’t budge. And the coaxial can be in any position. If I switch back to 1080p it’s fluctuating again, then back again to 1080i it’s stable 100% quality. Brilliant! Thanks John. Much appreciated for you…

I’ve been doing a bit of troubleshooting changing coaxial cables, tried three different cables, but it didn’t make a difference. I noticed signal quality was going up and down on the bt box which of course is causing the warning message to pop up al…

Hi mc2. What are your signal strength and quality reading on your problem channel?
-
The signal strength is 93%.
-
Thanks Roy for the help and suggestion. I don’t think it’s picking the wrong transmitter as I receive all the channels and have absolutely no picture break-up, pixelation or any sound or vision issues whatsoever. And after a retune it gives me the c…

I seem to have problem where the multiplex which contains BBC News HD complains of a low quality signal on all channels in the multiplex - so I get the on screen warning popping up every few minutes - yet the image and sound reception is fine on al…

I seem to have problem where the multiplex which contains BBC News HD complains of a low quality signal - so I get the on screen warning - yet the image and sound reception is fine. This is in the East Midlands. Running the signal test on the t2100…

I can see there's a lot of unhappy people on the forum regarding the new UI. All that matters to me is I quite like the update. :-). Each to their own as they say. Thanks for TV guide tips, but now I'm happy, I shall slip off back into the real worl…

All I've read is that youview plan to release updates more frequently. So fingers crossed. With it being a complete new UI, first release, I'm sure there will be updates with more features. When I read all the negative feedback I feared the worse, b…

On the main TV guide type in 000 or 999 to move the TV guide to the top or bottom of the guide respectively.
-
Yes that works for me Zulu. Cheers. Although I have to scroll three screens on my Logitech remote to get to the numeric keypad :-).
-
I see. A workaround for doing the wrap around from getting from top to the bottom of the guide without needing to scroll through the whole lot. Cheers. I hope they put the wrap around back into the main full screen TV guide at some point. I'm sure t…

Got my update today. On initial impression it's good. Seems a bit faster when navigating. I like the bottom of the screen tv guide for the channel you're currently watching, and being able to scroll the guide to neighbouring channels to see what's …

You can still change the colour settings within standard mode if needed. As well as brightness and backlight settings. I've read that the issue is associated with the backlight setting of the TV. Need to keep it up high - above 70% or higher - to…
-
Yes I tried that too. It does actually work - I put a piece of paper over the IR Sensor receiver on the box - worked a treat. Alternatively change the picture mode on the TV - Dynamic mode was bad for me, any other setting allowed the remote to wo…

I've had this problem with the BT Youview Box 2nd generation. It was down to my TV after much experimentation. Your TV has different display modes like standard, dynamic etc which affect the frequency of the light emitted from the screen and can i…
