Telly wouldn't bring up my cable signal through the Virgin+ box yesterday. Easy, I thought, switch the mains off and let it re-boot. Didn't work. I run this through a HDMI cable so i went down the caravan and got a co-axial, thinking I could run the telly from the roof aerial on the inbuilt freeview. Showed ' no signal ' again.
Rang Virgin and he tried to fix it on the phone from Gujerat or somewhere but no luck. Engineer coming tomorrow afto.
I suspect the telly, though. It's a 26" Samsung...about 3 yrs old and we've had no trouble.
It shows which channel you're on, or which source but thats all.
It will allow you to view and listen to a DVD perfectly.
I disconnected everything and fetched another telly.. This played the freeview via the aerial but wouldn't play the V+ box.
I suspect there is something in the big telly that grabs a signal, both from the cable and the aerial and this has gone......would this be logicl thought ? If so, is it fixable or do we need to buy another set ?
I had to get my 15" one out and put it on the dining table for SWMBO to look at.
We both sat there last night in some discomfort. Tonight, I fixed it up in the lounge through the aerial point there. Much better but a bit too small to be really enjoyable.
Any advice.....just pay out again ? I'll wait 'til the engineer's been tomrrow, he or she might have an idea too.
NiteNite all.
