Hi all
I have gone through this forum looking for answers but I am still unsure what to do next.
The layout of my system is Dish-Quad LNB-2 cables-Wall socket-2small cables-SKy+ box (Thomson)
The main problem I am having is that recordings keep loosing sound and the picture becomes jumpy. The system was installed 4 weeks ago and for the first 2 weeks there were no problems, now 1 in 2 recordings have problems, 1 in 3 are just unwatchable. I have re-aligned the dish to get maximum signal. The signal strength for both channels is around 10% but the signal quality is about 80%!! I have swapped the channels over between the wall socket and the sky+ box and still getting it on the recordings. The software update earlier this week hasn't changed anything, apart from a major delay between pressing remote button and see something on screen. The live stream has got a little worse but not as bad as recordings.
I can't/haven't done a full system reset yet (too much stuff on HD), whould this make a massive amount of difference? The wall socket is a DIY type thing, how much would this effect it (maplin wallplate with sky and RF, then added second sky)
The box itself is from eBay, could it be a HD fault or box fault? The other problem is a major delay for channel changes, etc.
Thanks for any assistance
