  • Hi when I use the you tube app its unwatchable as the sound is terrible, tried going to channel 198 but that channel has disappeared.  This is happening on my living room v6 box , you tube plays fine on my tivo box in the bedroom

YouTube was never a channel of itself, Ch198 was just a shortcut to the YT app in the same way as following Home > Search & Explore, or Home > Apps > All apps

Have you tried restarting your V6 via Home > Help & Settings > Clear or restart?

Is this poor sound affecting any other services, live TV or OnDemand for example?

Hi theshadow,

have you tried siging out of you tube, then rebooting the V6 and signing back in?
