Connecting sky q to new lg smart tv

Lg auto tuning is not picking up any stations from sky q.

Sky q and lg tv connected via hdmi cable from pink socket on q box go hdmi on TV

What should the settings be on the TV.

 Connection is via satellite

You don't 'tune' for a HDMI connection,

 

Just select the appropriate HDMI input - or try using the home/sky button if CEC is enabled.

@237scalb you need to switch the Sky Q box on the change your TV source to the same HDMI socket you plugged the HDMI lead into so if your lead from the Q box is in HDMI socket 1 then you need to change the TV source to HDMI 1 and you should then see Sky Q you do not need to tune stations that is only for freeview

hi @237scalb 

 

 

 

The tuning you refer to is the Smart TV's internal Satellite tuner & is not SKY Q

This would only find any Channels if it was connected directly to an LNB on a Satellite dish (& uses a different type of LNB  to SKY Q)

 

To use SKY Q you need to select the HDMI input that SKY Q is connected to
