Due to the different techniques involved in digital reception, DVBsignal quality can be poor even if you appear to have a strong signal when viewing analogue programmes.The DVB system requires a good quality signal to provide the best picture. When viewing analogue pictures, interference such assignal reflection from nearby buildings or mountains causes ‘ghosting’, but still provides a viewable picture. For the DVB system,interference such as this can disrupt the flow of data causing the picture to appear to be made up of large blocks, or to freezeintermittently. If the picture disappears completely, this could mean that signal quality is very poor. If this happens often, you mayneed to improve your aerial system to provide a better signal. This TV contains a complex microprocessor which enables you toview enhanced digital services. Occasionally this device may need to be reset. This can be done by pressing the standby buttonon your remote control.SymptomsNo DVB channels listed in the TVGuide after Auto Setup.Blocky interference.Picture freezes intermittently.I have a good aerial system, butstill cannot receive DVB stations.ChecksCheck that DVB transmissions are available from the transmitter you arecurrently using. If not, try directing the aerial at another local transmitter.Check analogue transmissions. If picture quality is poor, you will need toimprove or change your aerial system to receive DVB channels. Consult alocal installer.Blocky interference indicates that the signal quality is poor.You should consider improving your aerial system.To check the quality of your signal use the Signal Quality feature (see page26).Good quality signal – indication is green.Poor quality signal – indication is red.If you have tried the previous solutions and are still unable toreceive DVB channels, you may need to provide dedicatedaerial feeds to the TV and other equipment.This can be implemented using anaerial splitter or separate aerials.ExitInfoChange display modeSelect channelSelect ProgrammeCategor y Prog. type+24 HrDVB TV Guide :Landscape Wed 12/05/04 10:46Wed 12thTime: 19:30 20:00Prog. typeCategor yAll Ser vices20:30 21:00 21:30All TypesCategor yAll Ser vicesPULLTVVCRAerial InputterminalAerial InputterminalAerial Output AERIALSPLITTERAerial Inputterminal SeparateAerialAerial OutputSeparateAerial
