First. Does anyone know for sure the correct type number for the field
output chip in an
Alba TVD 3406/A 14" portable with built in DVD player ? It's a 7 pin TO220
package, so I'm guessing that it's a TA or TDA something. Unfortunately, the
side is blown off it, and it doesn't appear to be laying anywhere in the
set.
Second. Has anyone been having trouble with programmes from Sky Living TV
recorded on a Sky + box ? Only seems to have been happening over the last
few days, and only on Living TV channel. There is no problem with the live
broadcast, only when it has been recorded. Every couple of minutes, there
will be a brief burst of pixellation, followed by an equally brief freeze
and jump of between almost nothing and a few seconds of recording. This is
followed a couple of seconds later by an again brief interuption in the
sound. It's really annoying to watch. Both LNB inputs are showing good
signal strength of around 60%, and both show locked transport streams with a
quality factor of around 80%. Both these figures are absolutely normal.
I have heard whisperings that there are some recording problems as a result
of a recent software upgrade, which is of course automatically downloaded by
the box, but if it is down to this, I wonder if anyone has an explanation as
to why just one channel should seem to be affected ?
