Does anyone know of a Freesat+ box which will let you change the AV channel? If so please name box & give instructions.
My TV is stuck on AV2, but otherwise works perfectly. I’ve had a number of set top boxes which could all be adjusted to cope with this: a Sky+ box; a Virgin Media V box; & whatever box Virgin used before that. All worked OK. However, Humax technical support said that the HDR-1000s can’t change its AV channel.

Are you suggesting using it to change the AV channel used by the Humax box? That won't work because Humax Technical Support says it doesn't have that function.
If you're suggesting using a universal remote to change the AV channel used by the TV, that won't work because the TV's infrared receiver doesn't work.

Get a scart switcher (you can get them with manual switching or with remote controls to switch between their inputs)
