How many of you sit here in front of your PC and wife shuffles in with the TV remote in her hand and say a very common phrase "the remote won't work"
First words are what have you done wrong -NOTHING - you must have.
Anyway I went and had a look and no joy -Freesat box did nothing - I did a quick check and found nothing - She then said I did dust the TV and all the boxes down earlier. AHhh - checked all connections and still nothing -
that was at least 3 weeks ago so today I decided to have a look so pulled it all out checked everything and still nothing - Even got the old Freesat box working so gave up - Just sat there with remote in my hand and pressed on/off - the red light next to it came on saying battery was ok and then by chance I pressed button the other side of red light and bingo it worked again.
Quizzed wife a bit more and she said a message came up saying if you wish to keep watching press any button on remote so she pressed the one with STB on it.

I have never known what that button was for but I do now. :rolleyes:
 
you can call it what you like but it's "working" - I first called it a long load of french words then thanked God it's working.
Has anyone any Idea how marny women can get if they miss some long forgotton series from past TV dramas.
The TV worked but she is so used to using the Humax remote she couldn't figure out how to use TV remote. :)
