Does your picture break up the whole time and the sound with it?

I tend to find if there's a non horsey programme on I can watch it OK, but if it's vaguely horsey then the whole picture pixelates, freezes and/or jumps up and down.

So far I've managed to watch a bit of jumping at Hartbury the other day, plus some Ponies UK and Eventing at Punchestown and that's it. The Team Fredericks programme never works and nor does any of the other things I might want to watch if only I can see them!

None of the other Sky Channels do this, it's infuriating.

Is it because H&CTV use crap equipment?
 
I don't have any problems with it. Sounds like its probably a coincidence that you have only had it happen when watching that channel. Its the classic signs of static in your system. Try taking out your viewing card. Switching off your electricity to your sky box (just flick off the plug), leave it for 15 seconds. Switch it on again and when your sky system boots up, put your card back in. That should sort it, although sometimes it keeps happening for a while for no apparant reason

It is rubbish for me too, does the same and freezes every couple of minutes so have to keep changing channels, shame as I would watch it quite a lot.
 
A few people have this problem it is due to the channel only having a small amount of bandwidth. You may need you dish slightly re-aligned or look at the amount of cabling between the box and the telly.
 
Thankfully no - got sky installed yesterday (YAY!) and made sure that the blokey got a good channel 280 before he left...

Then got invaded by parents and dad was thrilled they were fly fishing on the river coln (3miles away!) last night.
