Hi,

something similar has started to happen to my sky box.
after about 10-15mins of viewing when I go to change channels (or press any information buttons etc.) I get the 'searching for listings / no information available".
I unplug at back and turn back on and go through the reinitialising stage and then works until the problem comes back again.
I think that doing the menu resetting (even in the secret menu) doesn't solve it anymore - i could be wrong with this observation tho'.
perhaps unrelated or not - the box seems to be hotter than usual in the recent warm weather ??

Yes.
The problem is that I'm using a type of 'pirate' card that lets me rewind/record ONLY the FTA channels.
It's very difficult to find a (second hand) box in which this card works.
Otherwise I will have to consider buying a freesat pvr recorder thingy.
I don't want to subscribe to SKY as I am not a sports viewer or a film buff.
