    Ok managed to get the sky intro come up, have gone on to the fta channel list, and still the bbc screensaver on the right, but now a black screen on the left.


    Getting there, i think, now doing a service scan and it is finding channels............................................

    Ok i now have tv, THANK YOU ALL.
    Last question, how do i get to view what programmes are on.

    It does already come with a usb stick attached and i was told channel list was already on it, so i do i still follow the installation of the channel list?
    How does adding the channel list tune the box in?

    Have pressed ok and on the larger screen it says bbc1 but does not show the picture, just the hades picture, i can scroll down all the cahnnels and the right hand box changes each time, but it just shows the screen saver for the channel and not the actual programme.

    using a 110 cm dish, picture on old oldbox fine, ok have done what you have said on fta and on the top left a picture of bbc 1 has come up, on far right slightly larger box with the Hades screen on.

    Should add we have a normal pace sky box in kids bedroom and perfect picture, hence we think dish is aligned ok?

    Yes have checked that, but all seems fine, as when we plug in our old box which has partially died, (the colours are mixed up) we have a picture, so i know the connectors are all working.

    Master G thanks, have followed the tuner A set up as advised, (i don't have a picture of a sat dish on my tv) and still i just have the main screen with Hades on my tv.

    Thanks the fugitive, no we only have one cable from the dish to the box. We get Error service unavailable check tuner configuration.
    I did contact world of satelitte.com as that is what have come up on the tv and the reply i got was


    "We don't support Zgemma, they are rubbish illegal Chinese clone receivers of
    other brands.


    ANYONE STATING THEY ARE SUPPORTED BY OPENVIX IS TALKING BULLSHIT AND SCAMMED
    YOU OFF!"


    I never realised i have bought illegal rubbish.

    Static dish, astra 28.2e, have found it on the tv and chosen it, pressed the green button to save and then nothing happens. Don't hold it against me but i really need to see Wales thrash those Aussies.

    I am totally clueless when it comes to anything technical so be prepared for some really blonde questions, and the questions are coming all the way from sunny France.
    My first question is, our skybox F5 died, and i was advised to buy zgemma star box as i found it a pain loading the programme guide each week and i was told this is modern good box. Anyway, it has arrived, plugged in, channel list works fine, but it is not tuning into the tv, all we have is HADES on the screen, have followed the instructions from the menu- setup - service search-tuner configuration, but it doesn't matter if i choose and select tuner A / B just still no tv.
