Hi there,

Has anyone else been watching BBC News 24 and noticed a problem with the speech being out of synch with the news-readers' mouths?

I've seen this happen several times over the past few months and I'm wondering if it's a problem with my box or the signal they get from the BBC.

SFAIK I've not seen it happen on any other channel.

Cheers,
Graham.

This does happen every now and then. The best cure and simplest is to channel up, then back down to the one you were watching.

If this doesn't fix it, try a reboot of the box, and if is happening all the time, call customer services.

Sometimes it seems to be BBCs prob, cause i get on sky as well (only that channel, for an hour or so)

Try flicking forwards or backwards channel wise.It should sort the problem out.

I guess you're with BUPA, if they've got cable TV playing while they're pumping your stomach... :spin:

Jumping channels doesn't fix it and rebooting is a tedious nuisance.

Also it doesn't happen all the time, only occasionally, so frankly it's not that much of a hassle to be worth bothering to call CS.

I was just wondering if it was only me who had the problem.

Thanks anyway.
