Has anyone used a Philips HDT8520/05 DVB-T PVR. I got a HDT8520/05 yesterday when I connected it up last night a red LED on left and a HD blue plus top perspex lit up also could hear HDD whirr.it seems to be in stanby up but would not go into use or setup mode. Tried changing batteries in remote still no go . Used buttons on box no go, rebooted still did not work.I have set up at least 4 STBs in last year so I am pretty good at Instalations.

Thanks Watty. I can't arrange courier collection till Monday so i thought that there may have been a multi button over ride trick to kick it into life. I sent maplin the Saorview specs from there website and they say it fitted all the requirements to work here. Non are availible locally so I needed one quickly for the better half to record RTE progs which are not on RTE player.
