Constantly cutting out never able to watch a programme or recording without missing sections, tried phoning can never speak to anyone and a remote check by Virgin is not flagging anything?

It looses contact with the tv if you mean the picture goes off for a few seconds every few minutes.

It is a common issue with 4K devices and 4K tvs.

What type of tv do you have and what are the video settings set to on the V6?

==================================
1.2Gb/100Mb in Oxford (area 31) using SH5

The picture goes off completely for upto 10 mins each time, then it goes through the "start up" procedure each time. This happens when waching a scheduled programme and recorded programmes. My TV is a Smart TV less than a year old and the problem didn't start when the tv was purchased but several months later.

Hi MargaretK1, 

Thanks for your post and welcome to our community.
