Sky getting cancelled next month but for past 2 weeks have not been able to playback any programs? If I set them to record it will say recording and then recording never ends up recording sometimes it says failed or part rec but nothing plays back also in tv guide it wont show any information about programmes? it says program synonyms not available?

Just registered, Pace Sky box lost signal and won't scan for channels. This is after a power cut of an hour or so, nothing else has changed. Will try the tutorial here when I am allowed to download it. Hope for the best!

I'm just wondering why my sky hd is slow. It works fine from upstairs using a wireless sender via the scart port. Downstairs the remote seems sluggish. I've checked the batteries and both remotes. It seems to be a problem on the box with the IR receiver. Any thoughts or fixes.

Helped Me

Thanks for this guide, it helped me get my box back up and running again, although i smell something rather suspicious from skys end as my warranty has only just expired!

Believe it or not, certain types of energy saving lightbulbs can interfere with remote signals. Ours used to go crazy everytime the hallway light was turned on.

Is this how this forum works? You moderate out all posts you don't like? Good luck for the future. I'm sure you'll have fun talking to yourself.

Hi. Sorry if it has already been asked but can a sky box be used to tune in other satellites like Hotbird? Regards.

[davvo]

yes in Add Channels
but symbol rate is limited

[Nutsandbolts]

Hi Davvo. Thanks for that. Its for my cousin who is getting a sky box from Italy and wants to get Italian channels from Hotbird. I will try it when he gets the box. Many thanks.
