Racing TV going off

Yes and it's not just RTV

yes thought I had lost it for good  because I will do when they turn  SD reception off soon.   Only sky news and rtv on my box now

Cheers thought it was just me. Always wary with RTV as so fragile

they all are. Sky Sports etc. If you change channels to and fro, they come back on.

I am with Virgin Media but don't know if it is a problem with them, Sky or......?

Sky here

(Virgin) Reported a problem today with 514 and 519. Pause and picture break up over last couple of days. Likes of BBC and ITV fine. Nothing at his end, supposed to be calling back tomorrow. They always want to just change the box. I have an old Tivo, but on the upgrade wouldn't have any scart connections for DVD Player/Recorder.

Yes me too.

Same as

Just got a "You cannot purchase this programme" message in the middle of the Killarney race (on an ancient Sky+HD box). Picture came back as they turned for home.

Lost the first race at Tipp. midway through race.  Streaming

same here on sky+hd 415 doing it also
seems a universal issue

I switched to 877 when 424 cut out, if can accept slower pics its a workaround

wonders or anyone , are u saying that pictures are slower on 877 ( HD ) than 424 ( SD )  ?  If so by how much ?

nothing in it for me between the two.

877 is 0.7 secs behind 424 via BFLV comparison,wonders

yes its marginal but 0.7s is around 4l on the flat

877 is SD & 424 HD for me howard

MY hd racing tv  has not worked for 4 days now have had to use sd channel
keep getting  sky hd isnt getting a signal message

they  work ok on every other sky  hd channel

An extra 0.7 delay will prove to be damaging to your wealth

It would if I wasnt using Lv

  its about  1.6seconds behind lv

Had to cancel my subscription as had the same problem since October on my Sky HD box. All my Sky sports channel work fine. Sky told me it’s not there problem. It’s with RTV.

Its your dish slightly out of alignment, needs tweaking
