Yesyerday evening I went into catch up with the intention of watching Bull on Demand 5. It got as far as the listed programme then my box went back to Freesat Logo. A total re-start. It did this every time I tried to enter the set programme. I then tried the BBC and other catch ups and they were working fine. Weird. Was this just a blip or something sinister. Demand 5 always seems different to other catch ups. Any advice please. Not tried today yet.

Happens on all programmes I've selected so far, not just that one.

Barry and all, many thanks. All seems fine. Mooting over a point with the wife. With the Humax receiver when on Demand 5 and nearly all the time. You don't get adverts.That seems to apply with the ITV Hub. Whereas with the now box we have there are constant adverts.

There was a problem ages ago where adverts on Freesat Demand 5 kept repeating themselves over and over and it became impossible to watch anything. To resolve it they just took the ads away, and they haven't been back since.
For whatever reason, that problem doesn't exist on the Now box, which is why it has ads, but I know which one I prefer to use!
