    Hi

    When i turned on our sky box this morning there was a perfect picture but no sound. This has happened in the past and I have been able to fix it by disconnecting the power for a couple of minutes but this is not working today. We have another box in a separate room which is working perfectly. Both are HD boxes.

    Any ideas anyone?

    Thanks

    Dave

    Does the sound normally come from the television or a surround sound unit? If it is the TV, it could be worth swapping the HDMI cables around (if the other box is also a HD box, or if you have an alternative HDMI cable) and seeing if the problem persists. If there is still no sound with the new cable I'd be straight on to Sky...
