TVs and boxes that do not support the 8k-mode | SwitchoversSunday 11 September 2011 11:53AM

Thanks to all for their comments. The problem is now 90% resolved. When Sutton Coldfield transmitter went 100% digital this week, I lost all the BBC channels as well as the previously lost ITV channels. By investing some small change and buying the basic set-top box from Currys hey presto I now have all the available channels. So please note the Daewoo DRT10 DVD Recorder + Set top box does not work with the new 8k digital signal.
Re; Marks "glitching/freezing" I still get some of this. I have an aerial boster which I'm planning to put in line (waiting male/male coax fitting) but perhaps this may make matters worse. Previous investigations have shown the aerial to be correctly tuned and sited. Is "glitching/freezing" primarily due to a) aerial b) poor signal c) poor connectors d) poor receiver e) television tuning. My wife thinks a new television will cure everything - please help.

I seem to be having the same problem. BBC services are ok albeit from Sutton Coldfield which means no East midlands regional programmes. But absolutely no ITV services. Are these from the understrength Waltham transmitter ? Is the ITV signal FreeviewHD only ? My Daewoo box is suitable for DVB-T,does this mean I will need a new box or upgrade if ITV transmit in HD only?
