[QUOTE="spiney, post: 249638, member: 192438"] There is no possible way to "properly run" a sky+ from a single lnb output! No matter how clever a "splitter" gadget you use! For why, see my multiswitch guide, in FAQs below (or via link just above), and try to carefully follow the explanation under "general principles", going through it slowly. If you do use a splitter, then, there's only a 1 in 4 chance that both inputs "require" the same polarity, so if recording 2 things at once, 3/4 of the time you'll get the wrong channel on one or other input! If only using 1 input all the time, for just 1 recording, you could do that, leave the other one unplugged, but I don't know if Sky+ allows you to specify this? [/QUOTE]
