Sky Amstrad DRX890 HD Box

Product Information

The DLNA server component still works following the end of your Sky TV subscription so Sky apps can still access your Sky boxes, but with limited functionality. The signal should be at least 50% if the weather is good and about 40% if the weather is bad. If you’ve got no signal strength try the following steps: Sometimes your Sky box will just crash. The general symptom is a frozen picture on the screen and no response to the controls, whether via the remote or facia, or a channel or recording is playing but the system won't respond to any commands. If you were playing a recording from your planner the blue circle lights may still be animated on the front facia and pressing the remote results in LED flashes on the front of the box but there is no response on screen. There is only one course of action with a system crash: power the box off then on again. Turn the power off to the Sky box for at least 30 seconds then power it on again. It may take ten to twenty minutes before your box will respond as normal without informing you that it is initialising or being generally slow to respond.

The most fundamental change from earlier Sky propositions is the revamped and engorged on-demand offerings.The plus side of this is that Sky will come out and replace faulty equipment if you are under contract. If you have a Sky Protect plan, Sky will send an engineer to replace or fix any faulty equipment within 2 days. This covers all types of Sky Q box, including the Sky Q Mini. For some reason Sky have not added the ability to detect automated clashes to their Sky box firmware. It can detect if you are trying to add a program to your planner that will clash with two existing programs but it cannot detect if it does it itself due to scheduling changes and Next Series additions.

This process will perform a low-level format of your hard drive followed by a reload of the firmware. This WILL erase all your recorded programs and delete your scheduled programs.

What it cannot do however is prevent Sky from deleting a program from your recordings because the program in question has an expiry date or because Sky has a legal obligation to remove it.

PcW16 (Z80, 16MHz, single 1.44 MB 3.5" floppy drive, new machine not directly compatible with old PCWs) The standard Sky+ remote in the box hints that the HD Digibox is more than just a dumb second-room box – it has an exciting future.
