Hi All,
I got my 1st LED TV yesterday (Thur 6 Feb) which has Freeview HD & Freesat HD and is going to cost me a fortune as it is from Brighthouse - a rent-to-buy shop - but it is my only option of digital tv as I'm Registered Disabled and cannot work, therefore can't afford to buy one outright etc.
I want to use my subscription Sky package (Entertainment+ and Movies) but I can't get any "programme synopsis" on any channel, and I also can't get the EPG past 12 hours meaning I can't set my programmes for the week - is there something I am not doing? I have a twin LNB and on checking the signal "input 1" has full strength, but "input 2" is empty i.e. not locked despite being connected properly - why is this? Does this mean I can't record programmes?
The tv is connected via the HDMI lead that came with the Sky+ HD box and the digital programme is set to "satellite", and it was the delivery guys that set it up even though they have had no training to do so - so is it set up to receive normal Sky broadcasts or do I need to do something different?
It is a new Sky+ HD box as I only re-subscribed 3 months ago, and it was working perfectly on a rear-projection tv I got from Freecycle but the bulb went so the tv got binned as the fans were making a terrible racket as well, despite being cleaned.
I am no "techie" so plain English explanations please lol.
Grateful for any help received.
