Panasonic Viera retune problem

When my parents retuned our Panasonic Viera we lost the ability to view BBC1 and BBC2, along with BBC news.

After waiting for a while and retrying we still have not regained these channels. Does anyone have some advice on how to restore them?

  • Jason_padres Oct 24, 2009

    Signal quality is 9, tried wiping all channels with the factory reset and then doing the DVB Auto Setup, and it still says "Invalid DVB channel"

    Any other ideas please?

On my Techwood it as built in freeview but every other channel is right except bbc1 and bbc2 both channels say bbc wales,How do i get them back to bbc1 and bbc2 please PLEASE HELP.THANK YOU.

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.

How do I retune my Sony KD-32DX200U and get BBc1, BBC2 and Ceebeebies?

perhaps they are still present, but not on the same place you were used to see them? App through all the programs and look if you can find them, If so, try to mover them to the place you used to have them My guess you had them on 1, 2 and 3. When you don't know how to put them where you want them, ask someone tech, to help you. This almost impossible to do over the net.

Have retuned sagem pvr 6200 and lost BBC1 and 2

The Sagem PVR 6280 is specifically listed as a model which will have problems with the retune. Although the Sagem PVR 6200 and 6200t are not specifically listed as problem models they are very closely related to the 6280/6240 models and share most of the same firmware and software.

See the address below for a chart of affected models, you'll need to contact Sagem directly on 0845 0900 316 for either an over the air update or an update DVD depending upon the manufacturer.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/shared/bsp/hi/pdfs/01_10_09_freeview2.pdf

Sorry I can't provide you with a definite solution but it's very likely that your model is one of those which only Sagem can sort out.

Bbc1 and 2 on freeview lost

You may lose some channels when you retune the TV as the channels have been rearranged. To locate them look at the EPG although you may still find that some channels are no longer available on FREEVIEW. See the following link for additional information

http://www.freeview.co.uk/_retuneinfo/

If the above process does not work then check the link above for additional information and also visit the accompanying site links below to find more information for your model of TV / FREEVIEW box.
