Could somebody help me finding the "Single Input" setting on my sky menu.

One of the two tuners in my sky box is broken and today I did an software upgrade (new EPG etc.) and now I get the message that no satellite signal is received.

In the message board I found that this is a known problem and that I have to switch to "Single Input" in the settings. Unfortunately I cannot find this option. Where is it?

hello,
it seams you have a sky plus.
you should have 2 cables from the dish as well.
look at the signal test on the box menu.
then swap cables and see if things change.
if it does change were as input 1 was working and now 2 is working there could be several problems.
lnb 2 nd output bad.
one of the connector s on the lnb fell off,no contact on one cable
connoctor rusted of the other connector in the house needs redressed.
usually input 1 in the prime and 2 runs the hard drive.
if 2 in running and has signal and one does not have signal it can cause problems
keep us informed

I believe you may have a HD box.
press Services, 0, 0, 1 select.
Now you'll see the set-up menu. You can switch on single mode here.
