    I got myself a Samsung LE32B651 which does have MPEG4 Digital Tuner but I still cannot get any of the RTE digital channels, In Cork CIty area, is it possible?

    without checking the model number....

    Have you run a full digital tune?

    What can you receive? any radio?

    What sort of aerial are you using?

    Yes its full digital as far as Im aware,
    Nope no radio just comes up with zero channels found.

    Do I need to connect something else to this?
    I just have the Sky eye setup I have no ariel in the back because that would only serve purpose for Analogue or am I way off the mark?

    You are gonna need an ariel to recieve the digital channels, I plugged my old roof ariel into a new TV and got all the digital channels.

    Try working on getting a half middling analogue signal first, then work from that.

    Yeah I just about managed TV3 and TG4 via analogue and no matter what I did I just couldnt pick up anymore and when I automatically tune again Id lose what I got! So frustrating! I didnt have this much trouble with my old TV

    What had you got plugged into your old TV ?

    Sounds like you need a decent aerial! Thats all.

    A really bad rabbit ears aerial that was half broken, the signal was bad but it came through, I still cant even manually tune this one in even with the new allinone aerial! Its perfect for PS3, DVDs but once I try and get stations tuned in nothing comes up! Except for the Coaxial sky cable I have up through the ceiling but thats another story!
