Television

[bluebird34]

I have 3 tv's in my bungalow all served by the same aerial. Two of them work fine but the one of them will play for a couple of hours then it says connection lost and will not come on again, next day same thing. my problem is I am not sure if this a case for local repair man or is it TALKTALK'S problem help please

Not much info to go on there bluebird. How are you distributing the signal to different rooms? Scart, HDMI, RF,? Do you have a splitter system with built in signal booster? Are you using a youview box? did talk talk engineers set up the system for you? I would think that 3 tvs from one box or source is stretching it a bit, and may be compromising signal strength, particularly to the tv furthest away from the signal source. Modern tvs display connection lost messages when signal is weak or corrupted.

If your three TVs are fed from one aerial and the leads to each TV is taken off the main lead from the aerial then the signal strength is halved at each take off point. What you need is a signal booster off the aerial and individual leads taken from the signal booster to each TV. Having said that it should be the same at all times, not just after 2 hours.

Hopefully someone in the trade will give better advice than me.

If you are getting your tv from the aerial I don't see how it can be anything to do with TalkTalk

bluebird are you using a audio video(AV) wireless sender with 3 recievers. If so what frequency is it on (the 5.8 ghz is the better).

If it takes 2 hours for it to go wrong, might it be because the unit is overheating?

Another question bluebird. Can you watch different channels in different rooms? If you can you must have a system installed of some sort. If you have to have the same channel on in all rooms it is likely just a split signal set up.
