Do you have a question about the 4K TV BOX and is the answer not in the manual?
Questions and answers
Hello, I need to use an I/R extender as I will keep your new 4k 2TB box behind my TV and I understand it's I/R not bluetooth for reception from the Remote Control. Will you advise whereabouts on the front of the Freesat Box the receiving lens (sweet spot) is located please?
My 4K freesat box says my hard drive is offline I’ve tried rebooting it with no luck does it need to be serviced
If the Freesat 4K TV Box starts missing recordings or displays a "something is wrong" warning message when powering up, it may indicate a failing hard drive. If the message persists after rebooting, the hard drive has likely failed and needs to be replaced. Therefore, servicing or replacing the hard drive is required.
