I picked up my Pace HD box today, I am waiting for the installer to put me another feed in. I live in a flat so we share a dish, in my loft we have the main box I think it is a 12 way one, and has 4 spare feeds. The dish has a 4 cable LNB, these go into the 12 port box in the loft.

My main question is can I use the SKY box with just 1 feed intill the installer turns up? The guy in the shop said I could but it would mean when I try to record it could make the box freeze and would need to be unplugged. I have just connected 1 feed and it is locked on but it's saying 'no satellite signal' Am I trying something that won't work, did the guy in the shop give me the wrong information?


Thanks

Could you please tell me how you do this, I've been into the menus and can't seem to find the right one.

Found it, settings options, highlight picture options, press 0, 1, and select.
 
Sorry I should have told you how I did it!

Sorted the second feed out myself in the end, used the existing tv socket on the wall and cable, connected a coax to satellite adapter to the socket on the wall, joined the coax in the loft to a satellite cable and connected it to the feed box and that was it!! £11 in cables and connectors, saved myself some cash in the end :)

Discovery HD looks very nice indeed.
