Need help with TV/Sky box settings

[plastic penguin]

Have a LG 32 LS5600 TV and a Sky - HD box, both are around 7-8 years old. Whenever the clocks go change to BST or winter on the TV screen usually changes automatically. I've unplugged both for around 5 minutes last night, still the TV clock is showing 11.45 BST. I've tried going through the Sky box settings and can't find anything relating to manually changing the time or overriding it.

Any help will be appreciated. It's really triggering me, driving me nuts.

Cheers, PP.

They haven’t reprogrammed the satelites yet PP mine are exactly the same.

Sky showing wrong time?

Clocks went back, my sky display did not? Do I need to reset?

Have you checked the time and date settings on your TV?

Is it your Sky box that's displaying the time or the TV?

Thanks Gel. I thought I'd inadvertently pressed something I shouldn't - wouldn't be the first time.

Here's a funny thing. The TV on it's own lost the signal about 6 years ago, after a couple of days of strong winds. Haven't been up in the attic or checked the antenna since, just relying on the Sky box to receive all TV and radio.

Yes, the TV is displaying the time (Sky box doesn't have a clock on it), and the TV clock is still in British Summer Time.

Thanks.
It's also is messing with the "Reminder" as the clock on the TV is an hour ahead.

Hey-ho.

All back to normal now. At 2.10am this morning the Sky box turned itself off. 5 minutes later the clock is now correct. Sky must have automatically turned off all boxes not showing the right time.
Thanx all.

Maybe they just need to turn Glass off then on again

Here we go again. Lost the picture on the Sky box. Looked behind the box and two cables have come adrift. No idea where they go.

Please help!.

Cheers, PP.

Difficult to tell from the photograph as they both look like F plugs. One of them should be from the Lnb on the dish and should go into the 'Dish Input 1' socket. Not sure what the other one is for unless you have an output to a distribution amplifier or you have a normal aerial connected to the 'Aerial in' socket.

Not sure why there's 2 cables dangling, even from @bigboss video.

if one is the Dish Input 1 cable cannot you follow the other one back to see what the other end is attached to it does it disappear into a wall??

One for viewing and one for recording.

What are the connections on the back of my Sky HD box? – Firstlawcomic

From what i can see it looks like a DRX890 box.
One should go to Dish input 1. Maybe the other had an RF to F-plug adapter and feeds another TV.

Thanks guys. I'll have another go. Thought I'd leave it a couple of days just to clear what I'm seeing

It's back working fine. However still have one cable where I don't know where it goes.

Thanks to @bigboss and the others for your collective help.

If everything's working as intended for you, you probably don't need the dangling cable. I suspect it's the cable for the 2nd tuner in your Sky box, for recording a channel while you watch another channel. That's why you're not noticing any issues.

Seems logical. Thanks.

Just a another point. That cheap Panny Bluray player you recommended from RS years ago, still hasn't missed a beat. One of the best cut price bargains I've ever purchased.

Great to know! I've always found Panasonic to be very reliable.
