jb38 - thanks for your comment; I'm a complete layman at this so apologies for any incorrect names/terms used! The roof aerial connects into an SLx4B 4way aerial amplifier integrated bypass device. 4 co-axial cables feed the signal to various areas of the property, not all of which have TVs connected. If those co-axial cables were to be disconnected, would this help to boost the signal to the 'faulty' TV/Blu-Ray ? Thanks for your time in helping me sort this out, much appreciated.

Thanks for your advice, (your post dated 14/12), the model of BluRay is a Samsung 3D BDE8500M, the model of TV is a Samsung UE46ES70001J.
Swapping over aerial feeds gives following results:
TV feed:
Frequency = 794000khz
Service ID=106F
Multiplex = TSID 1046,ONID 233a
Bit Error Level = 0
Signal Strength = 100
DVD feed:
Frequency level = 738000khz
Service ID = 20c0
Multiplex = TSID 2008, ONID 233a
Bit Error Level = 0
Signal Strength = 100
Unfortunately I don't have an old set top aerial, cleared everything out once the new TV was set up and running.
As ever, your help and advice, especially at this busy time of year, very much appreciated,
Cheers

Hi, have completed coax jumper test and TV still receives Freeview and picture quality is excellent.

Checked channel source and correct aerial input has been selected, carried out another auto-tune but this failed to locate any channels.
Have tried manual tuning but this too, has failed, returning a message that no channels were stored.

Looks like the tuner is cream-crackered!!
