Just bought a new dvd recorder (old panasonic packed up, apparently common fault). Having connected everything up as per instructions, I reconnected the rf2 output on the sky box to go back to the amplifier/distributor in the loft as it had before. First it didn't work, then it worked for a short time, then all the digital signals round the house broke up. When I took the cable out and reconnected, it immediately lost all dvb signals to the connected tv and those round the house pixelated and froze.
Everything works fine till I try to get the sky back round the house using this connection. I checked that the rf output power was on and it wasn't. Problem solved, I thought. I tried again, having turned it on, but the same problem - knocks out the digital to the connected tv.
If I connect the aerial directly into the tv everything works and we get sky through the house, but then the new dvd recorder with digital receiver built into the recorder does not work as it is not getting an aerial signal. Spent all afternoon and most of today's trying to solve the problem and am now stuck. There was a thread about changing the sat box frequency but don't know how to. I could just leave it like this, but if I want to record a digital programme I can't use the dvd's receiver. Anyone any clues?
