    fortec passion hd receiver rebooting

    whenever I watch BBC HD the receiver reboots after 20 minutes or so bit of a pain with the world cup on (btw on ITV HD it's stable) I have the latest software installed was wondering if anyone else has this problem?

    It's a known problem, due to a BBC HD encoder change. Fortecstar have been working on this, and were supposed to have sorted it before last Friday's England match. No change there then. Meanwhile, rolling back to an earlier firmware usually clears the problem.

    Fortec Passion HD

    Hi Jonathan, I've got a Fortec Passion HD receiver. I'd like very much to be able to get the free to air German language HD channels coming from Astra 1. I'm getting sound but no picture from any of them. Is there a software upgrade I need?
    I use a 55cm Force dish which has 3 LNB's attached, one of which is pointed at Astra 1. My system works perfectly except on German FTA HD channels.
