I cant get live tv programs

My tvs picture was breaking up for awhile. Now we can't get live tv programs. We can get it player, bbc player & Netflix.

I have tried new area, new box, even new tv. But same thing happens.

What happens when you select a live channel from the EPG? Is there an error message on the screen?

Have you tried turning the puck off at the wall for a minute then back on and allowing it to reboot?

What Sky TV service do you have? Is it Sky+ HD, Sky Q, Sky Glass or Sky Stream? 

None of them need an aerial.

@Gail+33  You posted your query in the Sky Glass/Stream forum, it's now been moved, however, you still haven't provided the info requested.  Getting broadband would not affect Sky+HD as that is a satellite delivered service.  

 

Without the info requested we really can't help.

Re: Live Tv

I can't select any programs as there isn't any. It just comes up no signal 

Tune channels but nothing happens.

"No Satellite Signal" usually indicates an issue with one or more of the following:

• The Dish is misaligned
• The Tuners in the sky box
• The input sockets on the Sky box
• The plugs on the cables
• The cables themselves
• The Sockets on the dishes LNB
• The dishes LNB has gone faulty for the connections the box is using


You may have to call out sky or a 3rd party satellite/aerial company

Note: If you have a communal dish then this is maintained by your landlord/building management and NOT sky

 


 

"No Signal" is an issue with your TV

@Gail+33  A "No Signal" sounds like you trying to get channels on the inbuilt TV tuner, you need to select the relevant HDMI input the Sky HD box is using, there is no need to be tuning anything in on the TV.

Please confirm exactly what the error message on your TV says.

 

"No signal"?
