    Time to go back to basics.
    Move the tv and one aerial lead back to the original room.
    Connect up - does it work?
    If no try another lead or tv.
    If yes, take the tv lead back to the new room. Connect up and test.
    Does it work?
    If no - fix the socket and check that it is connected to the tv aerial and is not just a passive feed from the other room. Is the splitter/amp pluged in and powered up?
    If yes - work through the tv/humax connections one by one until you find the problem and fix it.

    Why???
    He's described the problem in post #6.

    I'm not sure if SSThing has mentioned this somewhere in the thread, but have you tried connecting the aerial lead to the Humax without a splitter?

    Just connect the HDMI to the TV, not the scart.

    If this works, you can then connect the loop aerial lead from the back of the Humax to the TV.

    Tried this, no luck althpogh I did a scan with these settings and it did find channels from 800 onwards but no info from them

    Do you think#l a factory reset might help even if it means sacryfising my prerecorded programs

    You must have the aerial connected to the wrong place.

    Furthermore, you say
    "The aerial lead coming from the splitter I plug in to the Antenna in slot , left of rear top slot of two"

    The layout of the antenna ports on the HDR-Fox T2 are side by side not one above the other (unless the design has been changed).

    There are two designs; my early production HDR-FOX T2 has the sockets side by side but late production boxes use a different tuner arrangement with the sockets vertically aligned.

    Doing a factory reset will not not delete any existing recordings.

    Sorry that is the loader version; what I was looking for is the main software version (Menu button> Settings> System> System Information).
