BBC One 2015

Is anyone else board with the circle idents then. I agree with bringing the ballon back even as a stop gap it would freshen BBC one up a bit

Does anyone know why this week's A Question Of Sport was changed from the one listed?

Sound problems on Strictly, only on HD.

EDIT: Now seems to be fixed after the first dance.

It's now been fixed. I only jumped a little when it went loud.

And a nice bit of picture distortion during the credits to top it off.

I did wonder why there was no form of apology for it. Do they keep tabs on just the SD channel. That's presuming that the CA keeps check on the channel during programmes.

There was an apology at the end, for the break-up, which confirmed the voting window.

The SD channel is a straight downconversion of the HD channel, isn't it?

Yes, I thought it was. It was odd, I'd recorded SCD, so I played around with my amp's settings, and tried various down mix modes, none of which restored the audio. I suspect a meta-data cock up somewhere.

There was an identical fault a few months ago on a movie ( I can't remember its name) on C4. Virtual silence on HD but fine on SD, that didn't get fixed, persisted throughout the whole film !

I believe it was only on London feed?

Even more interesting then !

The sound problem was on BBC One HD which is England-wide. There aren't English regions in HD.

The break up at the end was certainly not London only as I was watching on BBC One West Midlands in SD, I assume again it was at least England-wide if not everywhere.

That's what he meant (probably !)

So, it was a playout problem within Red Bee (nothing wrong at Elstree), but downstream of Red Bee's clean HD feed to the nations ?
