Did a search and found the answer to my problem here. Thanks Highflyer, works exactly as you said. Not sure if it’s worth the effort, although live recording seems fine.
We recently ordered sky + to only to find that the TV points are not wired correctly. The satellite input is fine, but the 2nd input (wall) appears locked on the services menu.
The sky installers are coming back this week to check it out, but Id say they will just tell me that the issue is ours.
Would an electrician fix this?
