FAQs

Does this box require an internet connection?

An internet connection is not required for basic Freeview TV and recording, but it is necessary to access the 7-day catch-up features.

Can I watch Netflix or YouTube on this device?

While this device features some internet-based services, app support is limited compared to modern smart TVs or streaming sticks.

What does certified refurbished mean?

It means the device has been returned, tested, and restored to full working order, often replacing components like the hard drive or casing to ensure it meets quality standards.

Can I record two channels at once?

Yes, thanks to the twin HD tuners, you can record two programs simultaneously.

How long is the warranty?

Warranty terms for refurbished products vary by seller; please check your specific purchase documentation.

Troubleshooting

No signal found during channel scan

Ensure the aerial cable is securely connected to the box and the wall socket, then perform a full factory reset via the settings menu.

Remote control not responding

Replace the batteries with fresh ones and ensure there is a clear line of sight to the infrared sensor on the front of the box.

Recordings failing to start

Check if the hard drive is full by navigating to the 'MyView' menu and deleting old or unwanted recordings.
