Re: Sky TV jumping channels
Probably your missus doing it with her phone to wind you up.
(Not joking here, one of my mates is often going on about how crap sky is and how the channels keep jumping. Then his wife posts on Facebook how she's been winding him up with her phone by changing the sky channels while he's watching it. He's not tech savvy and not on Facebook either.)
Re: Sky TV jumping channels
Make sure you haven't got something pressing the buttons on top of the box. Seen it a few times where a DVD player on top has moved slightly and is resting on the button.
Re: Sky TV jumping channels
As above make sure you don't gave anything on top of the stb pressing on the top buttons, also check that no buttons are stuck on the remote.
Other than that its a box replacement.
Re: Sky TV jumping channels
Hi,
Thanks for the replies. Not missus, no buttons are stuck on the remote and nothing of top of the sky box. The channels are intermittent and after about an hour of viewing they start jumping, even if it is recordings and not live viewing
Re: Sky TV jumping channels
Just as a test put something in front of the STB so no remote can access the box and see if it then changes, this is to eliminate interference coming in via the sensor in the box.
If it still changes on its own I would look for another box.
Regards

Thanks for the replies.
I have tried putting the remote in the other room and taking the batteries out. I will try again, after plugging all the wires back up again and see if it works if not then seems like the box maybe faulty.
