hi just got my new xtrend 8000 delivered from wos, setup the box using the setup wizard and all is fine, picked up 900 odd channels, i cant view anything sky related, is this because i require a channel list or bouquet?

also i tried setting up the ABM but it just fails everytime, will start to scan for sky uk then just come up with a error message saying timeout for tuner lock but when scanned on automatic scan it will pick up all channels

it is flashed to vix hades

thanks for any help and sorry if it is obvious, tried google but to no avail

Have you a valid sky sub with card inserted in the box?

What tuners have you in the EXT8000?
How have you them set in tuner configuration? Menu -> Setup -> Service Searching -> Tuner Configuration. (A screenshot might be easier here)

If you have configured a tuner as if it has signal wire connected to it when there isn't, this will be the cause of the timeout issue.
