[QUOTE="Lotsofjazz, post: 248950, member: 64243"] [b]bad cabling?[/b] Because I cant get it right with the software, I am starting to suspect the hardware.. Because I wanted to see the news, i have connected the TV in the old fashioned way analog with the antenna cable, and guess what.. terrible picture! very snowy, which is an indication of a bad antenna cable. So first thing I will do during the weekend is replacing the antenna cable and connectors in my house and try again. I also have bought a signal amplifier but did not really help, which also indicates to me the cable is of inferior quality. It must have been damaged during installation of a network cable that I pulled trough the same tube as the antenna cable. However it has been working for a few months, a little strange it has degraded so much suddenly, Also TV server shows degrading signal quality (it used to be near 100% for all channels), so bad it cant find some tv channels anymore. I tried to reconnect the cable at the connector, but it seems everytime I work on the cable its getting worse. To be continued!! Lots [/QUOTE]
