    Mut@nt HD 2400 remote control

    I received my Mut@nt HD 2400 on Thursday, and tried setting it up last night. It seems to be a good feceiver, but one there may be one problem, I don't know if the remote is faulty.

    I thought the remote would come with some charge in it, but it didn't. No problem though, I connected it to a mini USB attached to my laptop, and I was able to use it.

    That was last night, but when I disconnect the Mini USB from the remote, it doesn't work. It's been charging since last night, I'd have thought it would be fully charged by now.

    Does it take a long time for the remote to work, without being connected to a Mini USB?

    It's possible you just have a faulty remote but I tend to find things do charge a lot slower via the USB port in my laptop as apposed to using a mains type USB charger. Either way it should have charged overnight, so maybe drop the sponsor a pm (assuming you get it from the sponsor).

    Removes screws bottom sides of the remote, slide off battery cover, check cable is connected to battery properly.

    That was what the problem was, doh !

    I didn't even realise there was a slider. I just assumed the remote would have a slight charge and work right away, which I daresay it probably would have if I had noticed there was a one/off slider on the side of the remote.

    Thanks for your help guys.

    For future reference, there's no such thing as a daft question, where you're dealing with me, as you've probably realised by now.

    I don't ever remember seeing a remote with an on of button for the actual remote, and I wouldn't have expected one to be on the side of the remote.

    Still, the remote has been charged up overnight, so hopefully it should last a while before it needs recharged.

    I started having problems with the remote last night.

    The receiver has been working like a dream until now, it's almost like an official box, but I recorded the football last night, and when I came in I fast forwarded to the incidents. When I was fast forwarding, I pressed play to stop the FF, but it kept going. I had to press the stop button few time to get it to stop, it wouldn't play.

    Since then the remote is having difficulty working. It takes a few presses of the button to get anything to happen at all, like scrolling through the EPG etc, then when something does happen, it keeps on doing it, like it has a mind of it's own.

    I tried unplugging the receiver, and restarting it, but it was still the same. I then left it unplugged overnight, and charged up the remote, in case it was low in charge, but it's still the same.

    Does anyone know what I can do to get things back to normal?

    Yes. I tried it last night with a USB plugged into it, and my laptop, but that made no difference. I left it charging overnight, and it's still the same this morning.

    I don't know if it's a software issue, or a problem with the remote, but when I press a button on the remote, it doesn't respond, so I end up pressing it a few times, then it goes mental, as if someone is pressing buttons.
