Ok try to be brief re set up. Live in Spain. Had lightening strike which knocked out LNB, sky+ box and extensive damage to Pioneer 50" TV (650€ to repair!!!). Waiting for TV repair. New Pace box (can't see a model number) and LNB. Before we connected from scart to scart switch and then to TV. Worked great. Also aerial output to switch allowing sky throughout house also good. Finally optical output to Sony surround amp also good. Now awaiting TV we are trying to connect an older 32 wide Sony Tv in place of the Pioneer. Picture is good and distributed system works great too as before.
However sound is poor in that there is an interference(?) hum. We can just about ignore it when watching some programmes but not others and very bad when on sky menus. Same thing when listening through the surround amp via optical cable. Have tried altering a couple of the installer settings e.g. stereo/mono but nothing changes this. Haven't tried retuning as problem exists via both TV and surround speakers.
I did try searching and found no answers that exactly fit the bill so I apologise if this has been covered elewhere. Any advice gratefully received. Hopefully not too long before we get the Pioneer back.
