Samsung tv switching inputs

Triboro

Have a Samsung 32 in tv about 4 years old.There is an older sky box connected via scart for fta and antenna for rte etc.Problem is,it just randomly flicks between the two inputs out of the blue.Anyone heard of this on tv's or any tips on stopping it?
Model is UE32J4100AW. Thanks.

If it only does it when the Sky box is on, then the SCART cable would be the main suspect: it just might not be plugged in firmly enough, or the connection for pin 8, which controls the auto switching, could be dodgy.

If it's the latter, & can't be sorted, pin 8 can be disabled without affecting viewing.

Check your setting to see if hdmi-cec is enabled. If it is, switch it off

Checked the scart there and seems secure,have a new one somewhere so I'll stick that on to be sure, thanks.
