Hi need some help I have new sony bravia kd-55x75wl and I am having trouble setting up my freesat uhd-4x-1000 box, I get so far but when I go to input it asks to turn on box with remote I have tried both tv remote and freesat remote, have I missed something in settings, I have tv freesat set up ok but want access to my freesat box

Hi @Steveperlin
It sounds like you are trying to use some sort of widget to add your Freesat box. I wouldn’t use that they are a complete waste of time, just set it up manually.
1. Connect your Freesat box using a HDMI lead to say HDMI 2 (doesn’t really matter).
2. Turn on your Freesat box using the Freesat box remote. If HDMI control is on it should turn on and automatically turn on your TV and select the input (from 1 above).
3. If the TV does not turn on automatically, switch it on using the TV remote and select the HDMI input (from 1 above).
4. Use your Freesat remote, hopefully paired to the TV for volume, to watch Freesat.
Hi lightfoot after plenty of head scratching and no signal coming up and thinking all cable connections worked fine before on old tv so I connected box to a separate monitor and no signal I changed hdmi lead and worked fine, so reinstalled to sony bravia kd-55x75wlu in port 4 standard setting and now working fine thank your time
