You will need a Ch5 sky card. Or else you will need to invest in a Freesat box

Maybe it's somehow connected to this issue?

Yeah sounds dodgy, before I could get the three HD channels on the EPG, now only one. It seems to be stuck in "sky mode" and wont go back to being a freeview box, is there a master reset on these boxes ?

The latest firmware update caused this. More of a side affect I would say, rather than a deliberate feature. Doubt
Sky will fix it, it's of no benefit to them to do it.

What's a Sly HD Box?

You can access STV HD, ITV1 HD, BBC One HD and BBC HD via Other Channels. Check the sticky thread for installation codes.

The UK EPG is gone since the last update.
