Soon as it rained heavy over the weekend I lost the sky broadcast, guy from sky removed the o;d aerial lead saying it would never be needed, how wrong he was, have been with a tv picture now at least a dozen times in 18 months. :-/

Swap a different hdmi to the sky box and select the appropriate av input?

Check settings, is box set to Dolby digital if tv does not support it? Is volume set low?

Unplug the box for 2 mins, then re boot?





Then kick it... ;D

I'm on my fourth sky+ box in 15 months,they are rubbish.

Post by: aaronjb on 05 October 2010, 09:37:20
Yeah, the build quality is quite shocking on them.. I think they actually deliver them with faults already, these days - the last two or three of mine, at least, have been delivered with drives that are already exhibiting the 'click of death'

Think mine finally packed up a week or two ago.. haven't bothered trying to use it since, mind!
