my freeview box is thomsons DTI000 not on the listMike CThursday 24 September 2009 3:21PM
my 92 year old mother-in-law has a Sony KD-32NX100U - with built in Freeview. Having checked on various forums, it would indicate that this set will not retune as it is only 2k & not 8k compatible. can anyone confirm that this will be the case - it is inompatible with what is to come.
I also have this 2k problem with an old Pioneer DBRT210GBS STB used for a bedroom tv - this i will bin and get a new tvMike CFriday 25 September 2009 11:00AM
I have checked the sony KD-32NX100U by way of using the remote in service mode to check internal spec & it does indeed show an 8k spec capability - but the software version is 3.5 and apparently there have been ota software upgrades in the past that this set has not picked up - despite having auto upadtes being switched on - so remains to be seen if this one time expensive set (£2500) is now a white elephant - maybe the gov scheme could help her out - m-in-law is 92 after allIrene BarberSaturday 26 September 2009 1:04PM
I have a TVONICS freeview recorder. £194.00.
It is great,completely silent. I need to know how to retune on the 30th of September. Help! Irene.monicaMonday 28 September 2009 11:26AM
tx-32lxd85 panasonic t.v. can't find this in your list please advise.Irene Barber: The TVONICS box retune details are listed above. You box should be listed. Mike C: The changes on Wednesday do not in any way change the transmission mode. Channels are moving their multiplexes, that is all.
No modern TV will ever be turned into a "white elephant" by digital switchover, but some will require the use of a set-top box.
The Help Scheme will provide a box, when switchover happens in your region. JesyTuesday 29 September 2009 10:57PM

I also have the Astratec DV3 and have no channels now! have done a full re tune twice. Does this mean i need a new Freeview box? I have Sony Freeview RDR - GXD310 but manual for instructions not on here - how can I retune for freeview MelWednesday 30 September 2009 8:00PM
Goodmans freeview TV 1 year old we were unable to retune last time as we were away and lost channels. We cannot get them back this time as when you follow instructions our menu does not have the options. Please help OliverWednesday 30 September 2009 8:27PM
We hav e Sony DVD RecorderRDR-HXD770. Have been repeatedly retuning all day. Follow instructions, reset over 100 channels including Channel 5. Everything confirmed but still when we try to view Channel 5 on Freeview, the same message is shown telling us to retune. Our Sony manual confirms that we are doing everything to the book so why can't we watch 5 now? The OliversWillWednesday 30 September 2009 8:45PM
My mum has a Viewquest tv with built-in Freeview. I've carried out a retune as directed in the manual but all I seem to be left with is some radio channels. The 'retune' appears to be fine with all the channels appearing on the display screen but after it is complete there is nothing but radio available! I get a 'save flash succesful' message which infers that all is ok but nothing but radio!! Help!WillWednesday 30 September 2009 9:05PM
Briantist: No TV/Radio button but does have an EPG button - whatever that is??. I will try your advice tomorrow. Thanks for your help.Will: EPG is "Electronic Programme Guide", the 7-day TV listing and automatic programmer. Pat ReynoldsWednesday 30 September 2009 9:15PM

I found that the helpline was very helpful for my Astratec DV3. In the end, they advised that after retuning (which I had done and had a blank screen) I should unplug the Freeview. I did this and it now works!Tony GoddardThursday 1 October 2009 5:36PM

Samsung LE19R8 I cant get it back to factory reset Although it seems retuned some programs are missing fiver and five live (LE19R8).Mike CFriday 2 October 2009 11:58AM
happily my Pioneer DBRT210GBS STB did retune and gives all the new channels - wasn't expecting that since it is only 2k spec - but 92 year old mother -in - laws sony KD-32NX100U - despite having 8k spec capability will not retune - freezes at 40% & sony advised repair shop say it is a model that will not retune - so separate stb required - so much for future proof expensive at the time (£2500) sony tv with 'freeview' capabilityIm have an L&G DVD recorder which I have tried to retune but it will only pick up channels 1-5 ie BBC1, BBC2, ITV, channel 4 and Five. Its instruction book says it will is capable of receiving 88 channels. How can I get t to accept the other freeview channels eg BBC3 and BBC4? I live with sight of the Crystal Palace aerial.
Many thnaks David Moore Mike C: The 8k change only happens at switchover. It is very disappointing when Sony doesn't come up to scratch. David Moore: Sounds like you are scanning for analogue channels, not digital ones. Fiona Hamilton-GibsonSunday 4 October 2009 11:45AM
