Quick question on LG tv

    On my tv I have a couple of set top boxes connected through hdmi.
    Sometimes the tv puts a message on the screen suggesting I switch hdmi source to another box. Obviously one of the boxes (humax freesat) is showing some activity.

    Is there any way to turn that off?

    Thanks

    If on installation & set up of the HDMI devices the SIMPLINK function was activated for device control this may be the problem. My Eir box sometimes wakes up from standby & goes back to sleep again. I don't have the link function set up for it. AFAIK you can enable or disable for individual devices or in settings in device connector or by going to inputs you can disable it completely for all devices in general settings. Hope this helps.

    I checked this last night. Simplink isn't turned on.

    The below seems to be the problem.
