Hi Guys,
We have a really odd Sky + problem...
Essentially, the box works fine until turned off. If turned onto standby (red light) and then back on, it will not operate as a Sky + box. If turned onto standby and back on, it will only view channels, it will not record, live pause or access the planner. I can force it to reset by pulling the plug and reinserting, it then works again.
Easy solution is to never turn it onto standby. Thing is, while I can make that standard practise, if someone accidentally does and forgets about it we'll lose recordings. It's also a pretty feeble state of affairs anyway.
I just wondered if there's an obvious companent failure or something? I can't really see anything on the web about this - is it just me???
Our Sky + box is out of warranty. It's a pace, I've tried all the resets and it now has the latest firmware.
Any help, advice or suggestions very very welcome!
