Have had a frustrating evening tonight trying to set up our nice new Samsung lcd telly in the kitchen/dining room.
The old telly has been relegated to one of the girl's bedrooms to replace theirs which blew up unfortunately :roll: so gave a good excuse to get a nice new one to watch while making dinner or whatever !
The old one was connected to the sky dish via a freesat (not freeview) box and worked fine. The terrestial arial signal is poor hence I tried the freesat route and was quite happy with it.
So I just plugged the scart cable from the freesat box into the back of the new telly and switched on, but the auto plug and play routines don't seem to find any channels when going through the auto search/setup routines.
I've rerun these routines several times selecting different combo's of options eg air or cable, terrestial or digital channels etc but nothing seems to make a difference.
Have given up for the evening and taking solace in a large glass of malt for my efforts :wink: and will try again tomorrow, but any help or suggestions greatly appreciated !
Cheers, Paul
