    Hi
    I received good signal from the trail,but now my tv says its a scrambled signal and i can only hear the sound, does any one know if i need some kind of card to descramble the signal or is it something with my tv?
    I have a samsung r73 with build-in dvb-t tuner.
    Thanks
    Michael

    I have a Philips 26PF5521D. It has an inbuilt digital tuner and I have no problem with the signal. I had a similar problem to yours two months ago I was getting sound and no picture . I would say it is a problem with the tv, return it to the shop and they will get it repaired if outside the warrenty or give you a new one if inside warrenty period.

    The trial is not G'teed to work on ordinary DTT gear.

    I get a chance to see the signal for 5 seconds, but after that it just shows signal scrambled, two weeks ago there was no problems receiving the signal.
    Thanks

    Have you tried a rescan? Maybe the TV is saying it's scrambled but really the signal is weak? Otherwise, maybe a compatibility issue.

    It might be the case that the "scrambled" signal may be an MPEG4 video stream, leaving the audio intact. Of course, I may be completly wrong...

    On my satellite box BBC HD does not show as scrambled. I just get no sound or picture.

    What channel is the signal on? Might be a clue as to if it's a DTT (possibly) MPEG-4 transmission.
