I do not have this issue, but I am wondering why people are watching/recording SD channels when there are HD versions of those channels to use which have a much higher quality picture?
Just curious.Actually since watching HD channels due to this problem they have been fine but previously when we tried (ages ago) they were very susceptible to pixelation and drop outs (generally not just the Humax). However, in general viewing I can't say that I actually notice much difference. HD is only slightly clearer. I suppose it may be more noticeable if you have one of those giant TV's but we don't?
The biggest reason why we don't use them generally is that they are not handy in the TV guide, down at channel 100+ and there aren't that many of them down there to make it worthwhile staying down that end of the guide. Too much too-ing and fro-ing.
It would be handy if the Humax had an option where it could ignore SD channels when there are HD equivalents and allow re-ordering of channels. Hey maybe it does?
They also take up more recording space which isn't an issue for me wth a 2TB disc but could be for some.
Thanks

You could use the Favourites option then you can have you guide showing the HD versions of the channels up in the position of the SD channels, then either remove the SD versions or put them at the bottom of the list.
