It's a bit complicated but do the following.

You can check the channels now being used on the following

Digital UK - Coverage checker

you can then check the frequencies by clicking on the channel numbers in the graphics above these posts.

I'm on the Oxford transmitter and I am having similar problems with Coms 7 & 8. I appear to have reception during the day until 8pm when I lose both of them

We've lost MUX4 on Tuesday 14/2/23 at 15:24, none of the channels are showing in our EPG, we have previously lost reception due to atmospherics but nothing about today's forecast appears to be the extremes that we have previously had so loathe to do another re-tune.

Anybody else experiencing this problem.

Thanks

This is a bit of a strange one.

According to all the listings I can find BBC1HD/2HD/3HD/4HD and ITV HD/Channel 4HD/Channel 5HD are all on the same MUX.

Keeping it simple I have two tuners both capable of receiving the HD channels.

Tonight as I write, one is recording Channel 4 HD and the other is recording BBC 1HD/4HD ITV HD and Channel 5HD.

I can't figure out why they are split. Any ideas?

Thanks

Thanks for replying

Sorry, it all seemed clear to me :)

By split, I mean that I would expect them to all be recording on the same tuner, whichever was used for the first HD recording.

The tuners only have information for the Oxford Transmitter, I'm using MediaPortal, so you supply a fixed set of frequencies to scan. They don't scan the whole range.

The behaviour is similar to the Channel list Management you mention but these are not Freeview Play devices.

Thanks.

I haven't solved the problem but changing the order that the tuners are used seems to have made for more consistent results.
