No MHEG-5 services on DTT for the last week or so?

    No MHEG services for the last week or so even though there are MHEG indicators visible on both the Sony and LG TV's I have. As far as I can remember this has been the longest period there hasn't been such services available. Any one else not getting them?

    EDIT: It's back this evening! They must be watching us in here......................

    Strange thing on the Sony. If you enter and then exit using the text button only you cant access text again unless you change channel. However if you enter via the text button and exit via the red button (as indicated) there are no problems accessing text again if you want.

    No problem like this on the LG. You can enter and exit text via the text button and then enter straightaway again.

    That seems to be a quip on the Sony firmware, exiting MHEG via the text button seems to completely shut down the MHEG service on the channel whereas exiting via the Red button seems to push the MHEG service into the background, so the TV will bring MHEG back to the front if it is called upon again. Obviously, changing the channel will cause the TV to launch the new channel's MHEG service (if it's there) which brings it back.

    As regards the MHEG service, I understand there's infrastucture work underway all this week which is causing there to be no MHEG data broadcast, even though the stream is still present over the air.

    Hi there,
    What will the MHEG5 content be on DTT? Is it just digital teletext or extra viewing channels as happens on freeview in UK when for example a sporting event is on at the same time as another sporting event?
