If you have a Pace Sky+ box (and this seems to be the only make affected so far) you may have noticed a "filmic effect"on some of the UKTV +1 channels in the last couple of weeks. Gold +1 seems to be particularly badly afected.

Its a distinct and very noticable jitter on the picture when there is fast movement in a scene with a high contrast between the foreground and the background. Its almost as if the reciever is dropping alternate frames of the picture for some reason......

Anyway - UKTV are aware of the matter. Myself and a few other members of the DS forum are in dialogue with UKTV and UKTV are making some minor technical changes to their transmission chain in an attempt to fix the problem.
