Bravia with no Teletext

Bravia KDL-32S3000

Unable to get teletext on BBC2 & BBC News Channel 80, Text is OK on other channels.

Have retuned the set a couple of times

Have tried a different aerial & lead.

Signal strengh is shown as 100%.

Picture is good & text on other channels is correct, with no pixelation.

Text on my other TV is correct.

2 people had this problem.

Sorry I bought SONY . Feel cheated by lack of teletext since I used it every day with my old Panasonic.

Is it possible for SONY to produce a software update ?

In 2019 or thereabouts the BBC announced that it was to discontinue the Red Button text service.

Due to the response by the public and the pandemic the BBC said it would continue the service for

an unknown period.

Unfortunately TV manufacturers and PVR manufacturers had already decided to not include the 

decoders/ software necessary to provide the Red Button/ text service on new models, that is why

your new Sony does not have it.

 

I bought my Sony Bravia TV in early 2019 and it has the text service, but my Humax Aura PVR which 

i bought in 2021 does not.

 

You should have started your own question rather than tagging on to an olde discussion that started in 2012.
