Ok so I recently bought a Compro VideoMate DVB-T300 and wanted to install Sky TV into it. So I have a Digibox downstairs (plugged into downstairs TV) then a splitter going up to my upstairs TV (which I put into the Card), before it was working fine downstairs, and on my TV but as soon as I plugged it into my TV card it does nothing. I installed all the drivers and the Compro TV viewer thing and waaaaay. It doesn't work. Its picking up normal TV Channels (BBC, ITV, Channel 4) but nothing with Digital Channels. Then, when I plug it back into my TV, it doesn't work, but downstairs still works, what could have happened? :S
 
sounds like you are using the RF cable and doing a "uhf search" on the tv card. This will only bring back channels 1-5

If you want sky channels you need to manually search to find the frequency its on. You have to change channels on the digibox tho and not on the tv card.

Best way is to display the sky guide and then search to find it. That way you'll know you are looking at sky and not one of the others
