@Jason+Golding  Annoyingly though it puts the main SD channels 1st and HD from 101 onwards


The swap is only supported on recent Freeview supported devices😉

Re: Can I Plug My Aerial Into The Stream Box?

Not sure if this is a new feature or an error but I just discovered a new app on my stream box called "TV Input". When connecting an aerial to the box it scans and can play freeview channels. It's a completely isolated experience - you press right to access the EPG and it's not in any way integrated with the TV Guide on the Home Screen.

It's new (as of the last update ) and appears to have taken everyone by surprise.  At the moment we've no confirmation it has appeared by design.

@Jason+Golding @GD1 i wasn't aware the tv input worked in the uk. I was lead to believe it was only for use in Italy.

@Scoobs879  It was deactivated until this week, but no one knows if it's activation is a permanent feature or an error.

@GD1 fair enough. It would be good if it were permanent incase the broadband goes down. Saves you switching to the tv. Make everything more fluid on one box

@Scoobs879  It looks like it's not accessible if you cut the internet connection to the puck ......
