JamesB – 7 minutes ago »
grahamlthompson – 24 seconds ago »
Not had any hiccups at all since last Sunday.
Before that I had identical issues as JamesB, so his and mine boxes have been consistent at least.
After it was fixed late Sunday everything has worked as it should.
I didn’t have any trouble from the original “No S/C, no O/D” issue. Only from Freesat’s tweaking, as they tried to fix the problem. Went away when they stopped.
Ditto – our two boxes seem to have behaved identically. Must have something in common.
Mine
Router – Virgin Media Superhub1 – 50Mbps download (averages about 40Mbps).
Connection Cat5 via Network Switch with inputs for AV Reciever, Foxsat-HDR, HDR1000S, Two HDR FOX T2’s and BD Player.
Possibly our boxes are the same as the great majority, and what you and I have in common is the fact that we were both checking to see what was happening?
My ISP is Plusnet, router is Plusnet’s branded Technicolor Tg582n, ADSL2+
Connection with homeplugs, no switch, all other smart stuff is wifi.

Just substitute Freesat into that entire description and there is no difference. They’ve been bigging themselves up about their “Editorial Vision” in improving Showcase. Meanwhile the users complain that Showcase and OD have stopped working.
All this excitement generated by my comment, which I confess was not well articulated. Let me rephrase…

No denying that.

As one of the 55 posters that did have problems with SC & OD I’d like to point out that I wasn’t ever suffering.
No gain without the pain.

No denying that.
The really interesting question (in my opinion, that is) is why did Emma Scott resign?
Quote:“It has been very fashionable to think about PC-based recommendations, but why veer from a world in which humans create channels and lovingly craft schedules? Why hand that over to a computer?” she asked.Scott added: “We work in a world of entertainment – it’s quite different from something like online shopping. I’m certain the world of algorithmic recommendations will start to gravitate back into the human world.”

Thanks for the link but I think I’ll abstain from signing up to paying £20.60/month to see if it’s interesting/relevent/worth reading.
Sorry if the link doesn’t work. If you try Googling news for “Emma Scott” you may get it. That’s how I came across it.
