    Trying to fire up my old pvr - not been used / connected for a while

    Probably being thick but have connected all the cables correctly (I think). The pvr scrolls through the chennels fine - but the tv works as if as though its still connected to the aerial.

    I have checked that the aerial feed goes into the PVR and then back out to the TV. Scart lead also connected to the right sockets I think.

    What an I doing wrong?

    Thanks

    First check that the SCART is securely fitted at each end. If that isn't the problem maybe there is a button the TV remote to select the SCART input. The button can have different labels eg AV.

    Thanks for this - it was the AV!

    One other Q - the tv works fine but when the feed is routed via the pvr only a few channels feature ~ with the others saying 'no or bad signal'

    I guess it might be the aerial or connections hut any other thoughts would be appreciated

    If you have not used the Humax for a while then I would guess it needs retuning. Try an automatic tune first. If that produces a significant number of channels above 800 then try a manual tune using the Biggles instructions http://myhumax.org/forum/topic/week-old-9300t-and-epg-wont-fill-up-for-week#post-7097

    Thanks very much for this link to the Biggles fix. I have followed it and everything now is where it should be. Much appreciated
