    I have had this FVP 4000T for 3 months. It has started to hesitate when we are viewing normal TV. The picture freezes for about 2/4 seconds then continues.
    The signal is over 90% and we don't have any problems with the old version of this model.
    Anyone ideas?

    Does the 90% refer to signal strength or signal quality?

    Hi Martin.
    I have checked signal strength and quality on several channels and I get 89% to 95% for Strength, the best is BBC the lowest was ITV Channel 10, ITV3.
    100% for quality.

    One possibility is that your signal strength is too high. If there is any amplification in your aerial system then try turning it down or removing it; alternatively fit a variable attenuator to the aerial feed. We had a similar problem with an HDR-2000T which was resolved by fitting a variable attenuator and reducing the reported signal strength below 80%.
