I'm not sure how long this has been happening for but this weekend I noticed a little white box appearing on the bottom right hand side of the screen, it flashes for a second at a time every 40 seconds or so.
I thought I was going mad but I saw it happen on sunday again, I'll have to verify but I think that its happening on the movie channels, not sure if its on anthing else or even if its just the Mnet channels.

I sort of get the feeling that I am watching Fight Club, where they flash porn on the screen for a few seconds so send subliminal messages. It gets bloody irritating and is almost like chineese water torture, you start anticipating it and waiting for the flash to happen.

If some one from DSTV though that this would be a clever way to impliment copywright controll then think again... and prepare for wrath on another level.
 
What decoder do you have?

I would try a complete reset if I was you, then check all cables are connected - the usual stuff.

Also check what software you have on the decoder and compare to the website that it is the latest.

Enjoy.
 
I get the same thing from time to time. I've been actively trying to ignore it.
Resets and cable checking does nothing to make it go away.
