Sony KDLW905A - No Freesat Channels Found

Liquid_Entity · 20 Jun 2015 at 12:01

Hi

I'm trying to hook up the feed from the satellite dish (for SKY) and get Freesat working on my inbuilt Freesat in the Sony TV. I keep doing searches and no services are found. I have 2 feeds from the satellite dish and tried both cables but still nothing.

This is very annoying as the SKY sub runs out this month and I want Freesat as my TV should have it.

Any ideas?

Firmware update?

Large thread over at AVF also.

Have you definitely got it set to search for satellite channels, and not terrestrial ones? Probably a silly question but you never know.

Bingo !!

having never needed to do it before I was searching for digital tv on cable and didn't even notice the satellite tuning section.

**MUPPET**

938 channels found so far, crikey, it was bad enough with SKY channels.
