What can I do to get the best digital TV set-up?

You can fix many common problems, such as missing channels, poor sound 
and picture quality, by working through the steps below. 

1

  Double check your aerial, HDMI or SCART cables are fully pushed in and 

that you’re using good quality cables (especially cables to your aerial).

2

  Check your BT box and TV are turned on.

3

  Make sure your broadband’s working.

4

  Scan for channels by pressing 

, then go to Help & Settings > 

Settings > TV Settings > Scan for Channels and press 

 on  

Start Scan.

5

  Check your aerial is properly in place and aligned with your  

local transmitter (probably pointing in the same direction as  
your neighbours’).

6

  If you’ve got a viewing card for BT Sport, make sure you’ve pushed it  

all the way into the slot with the arrow facing the box and the chip 
facing upwards.

My digital TV channels have distorted sound and pictures. What can I do?

You can check your signal strength and quality for each channel.

1

  Press 

 then go to Help & Settings > Settings > TV Settings > 

DTT Signal Strength.

2

  Using the   and   and C/-, highlight the channel with  

poor picture or sound and note the signal reading for both strength  
and quality.

 

 

Each of these will show as red, amber or green depending on whether 
you need to take any action to improve your viewing experience. 

 

A very strong signal can affect picture and sound quality. If your 
signal is too strong, this will show as red and you may need to buy an 
attenuator which you can find in most electrical stores.

How can I update my channel list?

Your BT box will automatically scan for channels from time to time. 
You can also run a complete channel scan yourself by pressing 

then go to Help & Settings > Settings > TV Settings > Scan for Channels.

I don’t have any sound. What can I do?

  Check the volume on your TV isn’t muted. 

  Try another channel to see if sound is missing from all channels.

  Check all your cables are firmly in place.

  Try watching an On Demand trailer to see if the sound is working.

  Restart your BT box by holding down 

 on the front of 

the box until it turns red. Then press 

 to restart the box.

  If this doesn’t help and you’re using an HDMI cable to connect your 

BT box and TV, try using a SCART cable instead.

On Demand

With BT TV you can watch TV shows On Demand – so you can watch what 
you want, when you want.

Go to bt.com/tvfrombt to find out what’s on.

If you’ve ordered BT TV and BT Broadband at the same time, your 
line speed can take ten days to stabilise. You might have problems 
watching On Demand programmes during this period but your 
line will soon settle down. 

If you’re using Powerline adapters and need some help with  
On Demand, go to bt.com/help/powerline

On Demand is ‘Currently unavailable’. What can I do?

Leave the On Demand section by pressing 

 on the BT   

box remote control. Re-enter the On Demand section. This makes the  
BT box pull the information back from the BT TV platform again. 
Try this several times. If you’re still having problems, try restarting your 
equipment by:

  turning off the power to the BT Home Hub (or disconnecting the  

power supply)

  switching off the power socket that the BT box power cord’s 

connected to
