InactiveNo idents, Showcase is there but with no idents you don’t know what channels the programs are on and I’ve got the you need to connect to broadband message on the On Demand section.

InactiveShowcase & OnDemand both unavailable, I’m back to getting the connect message.
It was all working fine for a week or so.

InactiveJamesB – 22 hours ago Be interesting to see if the graphics return overnight.
Icons have reappeared on Showcase and On Demand. Not, so far, on the EPG.

After JamesB’s step forward, is there any change on your unit?

I would say you are in a minority to be fair…
What you mean when you say…

Something else I’ll never understand…
…is you don’t understand why the rest of the world is not like Faust

Actually I suspect more of the world follows my way of thinking on this particular subject than follows yours.
I suspect this is a learned behaviour from your younger days e.g pulling out the aerial at bedtime or not putting on the car headlights as the Dynamo couldn’t charge the battery sufficiently. Yes I too did those things, however I realise things move on. Apart from saving a few pence what is the point of switching off a router.

Mine weren’t showing, but after removing power from mains, leaving a couple of mins, plugging back in and turning on again they’ve reappeared. Just waiting for the EPG sort itself out with icons.
Edit: Ooh EPG icons are now back

InactiveI never lost the showcase icons but have no on demand player icons and the indents are in plain text. The lack of urgency and complacency is less than inspiring.

Try turning off and removing the power cable from the back of the box for a couple of minutes and then turn back on again.
After the Home Menu has appeared, close it and then open it again and the on demand icons should now be present.

ParticipantMine are back and I haven’t done anything. Box has been on all day and made a few recordings.

Mine reappeared with no action on my part. Still no EPG icons though.

InactiveFollowed all the directions in an email from Freesat this evening but still no Showcase/On Demand.
A week with a hobbled box at this stage.

This is turning into a meta discussion which I’m sure is boring the other posters. So let it rest that I do things my way. Your speculation as to why is of no interest to me.
