Thanks How have you got it connected to the main TV ? I assume it is scart if so you don't have to tune it in. You need to change to the correct source. Look for a button on the remote that changes the AV/source and keep pressing until you get a picture from the sky box. Make sure the scart is connected correctly and the sky box is on. Edit: think I have completely mis-read your post. Is the new tv for the bedroom ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks have you made sure tht rf outlets on your sky box are activated if not then the magic eye will not work. to do this you will need to go into services then system setup then access the hidden screen by pressing 01 then select on your sky remote, goto rf outlets press select then type in channel 68 then turn on the rf outlet then save settings and then you should be up and running.
