Hi.

Was just wondering if anyone is having problems with the Sky Internet channels freezing? It started all of a sudden while watching Soccer AM this morning and is the same now?

No, all working fine here.
Maybe a local line fault or perhaps your modem or Youview box needs a reboot, I've found that a power off every 4-6 weeks clears out the crap and keeps them working pretty much faultlessly

All OK in North Yorkshire.
I'm using Livingit, Arts, and Movies quite a lot and all OK.

Mine freezes, and always has. Most of the time it is fine, but if I watch a one hour programme, I can more or less guarantee that it will freeze once towards the end. I will need to switch channels and back again to unfreeze it. Hitherto, I had assumed that this was a software issue that will be sorted out in the course of time, but if others are not experiencing the same problem, maybe not. This confuses me somewhat because films I have downloaded from the TalkTalk Player are not affected. It is only the Sky channels, and sometimes iPlayer, suggesting that there might be differences in the way they are streamed, perhaps.

You are a wicked person - you shouldn't take pleasure in such things.

I don't, I just want to wave a bit, I'd buy him a coffee and a dohnut anytime.

I'd have to make sure they were fresh though and not some same old trundled out tat.

Maybe a pretaster. A future smorgasbord even. of ripe promotions and not rotten half promises.

I still think you're wicked - but I love the humour of it.
