No option for Sky+ HD 2TB box (DRX895-C)+ multiple issues

Setting up One guide (FINALLY in UK!) It didn't recognise my set top box model number so I had to use the automatic choice of box. Also when changing channel the screen frequently goes black for a few extra seconds before returning to the TV picture this
never happened previously.

On the One guide panel that comes up at the bottom of the screen where it shows recent channels the On Now channel is always different to the one I'm watching.

when asking for Sky Sports 2 or 3 it always chooses Sky Sports 1, chooses Pick TV instead of Disney Channel but these maybe Kinect's awful voice recognition.

What is going in your HDMI Pass-Thru?

I will ask for confirmation in the SkyHD forums.

Or not needed as found this from April of this year

Sky enables Dolby Digital 5.1 over HDMI on Sky+ HD boxes

Would recommend those who have any other models jump on ebay and get the 500GB DRX890 cheap second hand.

 

Sky/TV on Xbox One

You cannot fix this issue changing the cable as the problem is the extra frames added to convert the 50Hz to 60Hz, the start of Saturdays Dr Who will highlight the problem. I also see the judder on Eastenders (on BBC 1 HD). I tried using the supplied Microsoft
cable to connect my Sky+HD box (DRX895) to the Xbox Ones HDMI In, and this was no better than using the Sky supplied one.

 

That is an Amstrad box, it's on there as just model DRX895 - I've not had any luck getting mine to work due to a different problem though.

 

Hi guys,

I'm having some issues with the 2TB box, my X1 is unable to control at all.

Any pointers?

Thanks
