    Tune Failed

    Hi I have got a dreambox DM800HD

    Last night i was watching tv and all of a sudden it froze on the channel that i was watching and said tune failed and i couldn't get it to show any channels at all

    I tried it earlier today and i could get BBC 1 for all of 5 - 10 seconds and then it went to tune failed

    I have tried again tonight and then restored it to the base image that i have got that i know worked but still nothing

    I have tried doing an scan and i it does pick up some channels but not all of them mostly channel 4 and E4
    The Sat - SNR is showing as 43%

    I have got a I have tested it with a freesat box and that is able to pick up all the channels but the dream box can't

    Anyone any idea's what i need to do seen as its ok on the freesat box ?

    This is the tuner that i have got in the dream box
    BSBE2-801A

    I have also noticed that when i change channel that the screen on the front of the box seems to go very dim and flickers

    Thanks in advance

    Before you go to the expense of buying another tuner card it may be worth a try and get a new power supply and see if that cures the problem only a few quid on the Bay
