UTV Problem, "no satellite signal"

bigpaddy2004

Every installation I have done today I have tried to tune in the utv channels. But the message comes back "no signal found". Also just in home now and the same is for my own Sky box. Anyone else having this prolem also?

ITV have just announced suspending some services! Not sure which. Looking in too it. Trust the BBC to be announcing this.

FALSE ALARM! Naughty TV Presenters on CH4

Aye, i was in the same boat today, a HD, two sky +'s and a standard all not taking in 10.906.

Same here on my topfield pvr 5000. I have UTV tuned in, as well as the other ITVs on that transponder, and receiving them loud and clear. But when i scan the transponder i get no channels!!.

They're suspending premium rate services, though ITV Play seems to be on air.

UTV seems to be broadcasting fine. Getting it on a non-Sky sat box

Receiving it fine.

It's working fine here at the moment (box has it tuned in already).

ITV Play is ceasing at midnight AFAIK.

There never was a problem with watching UTV with a box already tuned in. The problem is at the moment you cannot tune in UTV to to a satellite box that hasnt it tuned in already. Ive tried numerous times today with no success.

You can tune in other ITV regions from other transponders.

Strange one....

Edit: Managed to tune in channels from this transponder with my Humax hd2000 receiver. The Channel ids are comming up as "unknown". (UTV, ITV3+1, sTV, ETC) They are still not tuning in on my toppy or sky boxes..

EVEN STRANGER...

Not entirely unheard of though... I seem to recall this happened before with that transponder...

Yes this did happen before, took a good few days for it to be fixed, last time it happened was just before UTV and all ITV went FTA.

Yes, I've had workmates ringing me today saying they were unable to tune in the UTV frequency either.

As Givecredit has said, UTV is grand if it's already tuned in, but it can't be tuned in at the moment. Seems like an odd problem, since it scans OK on FTA STB's.

Is this problem still happening ?

byte

I don't think so.

I was able to tune in UTV in a Skybox earlier today anyway, and my workmates also said that the problem seems to have disappeared again. I'm still curious to know what caused this phenomenon in the first place.
