Freeview ok but unable to switch to Sky
After watching Sky channels I switched the TV off with the remote. When I switched the TV back on via the remote and then tried to switch to Sky , I just got a blank screen with HDMI in the corner. Have tried rebooting and updating software (box only recently installed) but nothing has worked. I would appreciate any advice as not even the virtual assistant could understand me.

Hi @GranndmaChris It should work if you switch on the Sky Q box first (not the TV), that should then turn on the TV and put it on the correct HDMI input.

Re: Freeview ok but unable to switch to Sky
Hi both, thank you for your very prompt replies. I am very embarassed to say it is now working. My husband pushed the tv back into its correct position and Sky just came on. Really don't know how that happened!
