    2 things come to mind....

    1. signal strength and quality

    2. disable "fast zap" (I have no idea what that is but it solved my pixelation issues. Others have mentioned it here).

    Not sure your image so cant help as to where to turn off fast zap but it ti in the menu/setup/User Interdace Settings/OSD options/Enable Fast Zapping
    in Jade Pli image.

    good luck

    OK, if you are card sharing from your oldies house then there could be too much delay over the internet connection???

    what is the speed, is there anything else happening over the internet connection, ie, downloading, voip, etc?

    When I had a play with a blue foxtel card recently I was using cccam 2.05 with no problems.

    not card sharing but it is from a cable box if that makes any difference. I also changed pal to multinorm. Thanks

    if you are not Cs and it is only happening on certain channels then i would not think it is actually the emu you are using but more so an issue with the lnb .

    could just need a tiny tweak in the skew to sort the problem out
