Hi
Is there a reason why ITV 2,3 and 4 are not in HD? I can only find the channels in SD format. Is it because I am connected to freeview via the the aerial which is plugged in the TV Box Pro? Or is it because my TV is over 4 years old?
Solved! See the answer below or view the solution in context.

It’s because your box is connected via aerial instead of IP mode.
You will find more info on the two modes here: https://ee.co.uk/help/tv-sport/manage-use/modes
IP mode will get you itv channels in HD, but you can only record 2 things at once, cannot skip adverts on any itv channel recording and will lose a number of other channels that are only available with an aerial plugged in.
