I get that too. DVB-T UK. Channels have a changing dotted line at the
top, which clearly has some binary counters in it. Can't see it on the
tv due to overscan, but get it when I run a frontend on the laptop.

Any idea what causes it? I'd assumed it was a video card thing. Maybe it
does upset the commercial detection after all.

Cheers,

Martin.
