Panasonic TV fault today

I've been experiencing the "No Service" issue on my Panasonic plasma on BBC1 since yesterday evening. I switch over to another channel and back again to temporarily solve it. It has happened at least 7 times since yesterday evening and again this evening.
My signal strength is great 10/10 and if I unplug the aerial I receive a "No Signal" error message instead - so I know it's not a signal problem.

Has anybody managed to solve it?

Should I take the TV back to the shop as it is 3 years old on a 5 year warranty?

Someone should E-Mail Panasonic, though they are never very quick at
answering.

Panny or BBC at fault??????? Software V. 1.005 on mine which is stated
as the latest when trying a scan update. J

If it were 'the BBC at fault', wouldn't all FreeView receivers be
effected?

Not necessarily. Other RXs might miss a detail that was 'out of spec'
according to the standards. Or even have been programmed by someone
sufficiently bright+cynical to include the relevant exception handler for
what looked like an absurd input pattern.

You know the old joke about 'press any key to continue'... ;-

Slainte,

Not necessarily. Even supposing that there is an unambiguous
specification, Panasonic could be failing to comply with it, or the
BBC could be failing to comply with it in a way that only affects some
receivers.

The TV has been on BBC channels for some considerable time this morning and no sign of the 'no signal' message!

Fingers crossed it has been fixed by whoever.

No sign of the problem here this morning. Fingers crossed it has been fixed by whoever!

No problem here either having watched BBC1 for over an hour.

I wonder if we'll ever get an explanation?

There are a number of possible scenarios :-

One is the Beeb have reversed something that got applied on Wednesday,
in addition to the post Olympics rejig, to allow Panasonic time to
rewrite and test their firmware, and quietly apply it via an over the
air download.

A few years ago the Beeb changed something in their MHEG code, that
caused Topfield PVRs to go bananas. The Beeb reversed their upgrade,
until Toppy had corrected their code, and made it available for download.
