I don't know if this is a TVNZ thing, or a Vodafone TBox thing, but has anyone else noticed TV One sounding slightly tinny/hollow recently? We're seeing it on multiple TVs in our house, and it was noticed independently by myself and my wife. We're only seeing it on TV One, not other channels.

Is this issue on all programs or just certain programs? If individual programs, then is it the same one daily/weekly?

If you can't laugh at yourself then you probably shouldn't laugh at others.

I think I heard it during Winter on Sunday night, but not 100% sure that's when it was.

I'll keep an closer eye (ear) on it. I think it's all programs on TV ONE though.

Millionaire Hot Seat is on now, and I can hear it.

Just to be clear, the problem is not super obvious, and I'm sure lots of people wouldn't even notice, but the quality of the audio is definitely a lot worse than other channels. I'd describe it as sounding tinny / hollow / thin. TV ONE did not used to have this issue.
