Can get itv channels clearly but bbc channels are glitchy why is this

What you need to do is retune the TV, but when it is finished look at the regional settings. Or if the regional option is available before retuning, retune selecting your area so then you get normal BBC channels. It's likely that at the moment the channels for BBC are located at the very top end of the channel list say? - channel 800+.

You are clearly picking up signals from many transmitters. With regional settings you can change it to the area you live in.
But you will have to take into account how good your aerial is. Otherwise the signal quality will not be good on same transmitters. So the set may only suggest those with the best quality signals.
ITV stations might also change.
When done it will move the channels you mention to the top end of the guide, to 800+.

Note many HD channels have no regional options. For example here in Yorkshire we only get ITV Granada and not Yorkshire TV on the HD channel for ITV1. And BBC1HD does not show any programmes when local news comes on.

If you check into the menu there should be a way of manually adding a channel to your memorized channels. Check it out.

Try Auto rescanning your tv channels.
If still same then maybe aerial needs adjusting slightly

I live in England and noticed in the 800-region of channels there were BBC Scotland and BBC Wales. Have a look through 800-onwards and you may come across ITV channels like this. It is possible that ITV only do regionalised service so I would be unable to help any further.

You may be able to pick them up from Astra with a decent sized dish and a freesat decoder.
Hope that helps

Hi there,

There could be a number of reasons as to why this could have happened, your system could have run it's auto update which wasn't successful. Try going into your setup and running the channel update, this should then reload the channels including the ITV channels.

Hope this helps,

James

auto scan for the channels and you'll find channel 853 itv audio description will now work! channel 4 is now 854!!

Hope this helps

There is not a problem with the TV despite it's age this is can be due to your reception of the digital package for BBC. Have you checked through he full listings? sometimes the BBC channel will be at a different number setting because of the transmitter you are receiving. I assume you are using a digital box, you can enter a menu which will give you an indication of the strength & quality of the incoming signal. Do you pick up some of the other BBC channels such as BBC3 or CBBC? It's possible your aerial strength is a bit weak for the digital BBC package & you may need to have that looked at.

TV is searching for over the air channels. Select in the main menu to go from over the air to cable channels and you should be fine.
