Ah cheers :) Thought it might have been some setting I missed/set wrong but it's probably a weak signal problems then, I'm having some issues with a couple of channels. Not sure why though as we have a stand-alone digital/HD receiver which works perfectly all the time... maybe it's the drivers/firmware for the tuner card.
