Jerky picture when watching via Humax PVR

Does anyone know why the picture is jerky for option 3 programmes when viewing through my Humax. When I switch to the DTV source on my TV it's fine! My rooftop aerial picks up Waltham so tried retuning 29 but didn't help. Really want to record some programmes on 5 USA tonight. Can anyone help please. TIA.

    What's option 3?
    Are you watching the programme live, or playing a recording?
    Are you viewing 5USA on your TV's tuner, and 5USA on your Humax tuner, and the Humax is jerky and the TV not?
  • Option 3 is the group of channels, which 5 USA is one of. Yes, the jerkyness is only when viewing via the Humax.

    And what is Option 3?
  • All the freeview channels are available to me. As I said these channels are fine when viewing on the TV's tuner.

    If the OP wants help then its up to the OP to supply all the required information, But I do like your signature. However I have looked at your link and a search reveals nothing. So back to the OP.
  • Sorry if I'm not being clear. Option 3 is a bundle of channels as detailed on digitaluk.co.uk which includes 5 USA, ITV3 etc. I did a manual retune after switchover as it picked up look north etc and I live in the East Midlands. These channels are on 29 so I tried a retune on just these but it didn't help. The Humax 9300T has the latest update. I just can't understand why the problem only happens when viewing through the Humax.

    Well this is going nowhere slowly. I've looked and searched the digitaluk.co.uk website and i can't fnd any thing mentioning Option 3. So I refer you back to my question in post 4 at the top of the post.
  • Hi innerzone, yes all these channels are affected. The list is on the manual retune instructions for my postcode on digitaluk and gives the channels needed to manually retune all the groups 1-5 and HD. Group 3 is ITV3, ESPN, Channel 5+1, ITV2 +1, 5 USA, 5*, G.O.L.D., QUEST, Home, TOPUP Anytime1, TOPUP Anytime3, CITV, QVC, bid tv, 1-2-1 Dating, Capital FM, Absolute Radio, Heart, Teletext Hols, Television X.
