    I'm looking for a bit of advice please...

    I hava a Samsung LE32B450C4WXXU and have been watching Digital Terrestrial TV on it for the past couple of years. Recently the picture started to break up and become pixelated. I brought it in to the shop where it was purchased and they said that the recent introduction of Saorview has affected it and we need the set-top-box. Can this be true, seeing as I have been receiving Digital Channels for ages?

    Also, we have another Samsung UE22C4000 model that picks up the channels perfectly, as the older one used to...

    No. If you've been watching the Saorview channels without problems up to now then the launch of Saorview isn't the reason.

    Are the 2 TVs connected to the same aerial, if so how are they cabled up, amps, splitters, loop-throughs etc. Check the connections from the aerial to the TV etc.

    are the two TVs in different rooms ? have you tried swaping them around to help rule out cable and connection faults ?

    Yep, I've tried that JRH and the same faults are in both rooms. TVs are connected to the same aerial via seperate sockets in seperate rooms. Must be a problem with the tele so.

    hmm ... unless your signal level has dropped to just above the threshold , and one tuner is more sensitive than the other ?

    Check that the problem set is tuned to the correct transmitter. Sometimes if a stronger signal appears due to weather conditions, the set might retune to the "wrong" signal.
