    Default Skybox F5s Help

    Hi all, recently i acquired a skybox f5s but having a little trouble with it. It works fine through the Scart socket but as soon as i swap to hdmi i get no picture. However when i unplug the LNB cable then it works through the hdmi cable (all be it there is no picture because theres no satellite cable plug in) but you can access all the channel list, menu etc. just need some help please my friends its starting to bug me. Cheers Guys!

    You need to put the skybox in the sink and turn on the hot tap for 5 seconds, then the cold tap for 3 seconds. Then plug it back in. If you use the cold tap first, or make a mistake with the timings, you will ruin your box. So take care.

    Thanks to Geko
