<p>I have recently ditched my Sky TV along with the My Sky box so I cannot record any more. To get around the recording I have purchased a Seagate 4Tb external USB hard drive to record to.</p>
<p>When I try to format the drive from the PVR option, Media format, I get a message that Format cancelled. I am guessing that the Dish TV box is not recognising the Seagate drive.</p>
<p>Can anyone give me any clues as to what is happening?</p>

<p>I have a new TV with dual tuners </p>
<p>I have a sky dish and a terrestial aerial they feed into a distribution amplifier with F type outputs ie 3 inputs 8 outputs .One of theses is connected to the sat tuner input on the TV</p>

<p>When I tune aerial type “Dish” I get channels excluding TV 3</p>

<p>Hi hope someone can help because I have no idea where else to ask. When TV first went digital to Freeview I got a 2nd hand converter box (no manual) UltraPlus and the guy installed a cable to attach to the existing satellite on the roof. All straightforward.</p>
<p>I moved and unfortunately have now only got an aerial (roof) option and the cable is different. The TV itself doesn't have the necessary chip to pick up digital tv, so just plugging in the aerial doesn't work.</p>

<p>So, do I need a different converter box for an aerial or can I just get an adapter plug for the aerial so I can screw it into the converter? If so, what and where (Auckland Central)? Thanks!</p>
<p>Converter box is UltraPlus 680 Platinum (LNB IN 13/18v = 400mA max)</p>

<p>We currently have a satelite dish (supplied by Sky). Although we are in Auckland, where we live is in a UHF black spot. There are 3 cables connected to the LNB on the dish. 2 of these go to sky boxes in different living areas and one to a freeview box in a sleep-out. I want to install another freeview box in a bedroom. </p>

<p>I don't have suitable equipment to safely climb up to the dish, so i was wondering if it is possible to split one of the 3 existing cables 2 ways, with a 2 way splitter under the house, and leave the other two cables as they are.</p>
<p>I've attached a photo of the LNB taken from the ground to show the configuration with the 3 cables.</p>
