What to do if my Freesat DVR has no picture?
If your Freesat DVR shows no picture, ensure the device is powered on and in operation mode by pressing the STANDBY button. Also, confirm that the AV cables are firmly connected to the TV and the antenna cable is properly connected to the product. Be sure to activate channel search. Check the brightness level of the TV and verify that the channel is currently on air.
How to fix poor picture and sound quality on my Freesat DVR?
To improve the picture/sound quality on your Freesat DVR, ensure there are no mobile phones or microwave ovens nearby. Keep the power cable and the RF cable separated. Consider using a larger satellite dish to increase signal levels. If the noise factor is too high, replace the LNB with one that has a lower noise factor, or replace the LNB if it's damaged. Install the antenna in an obstacle-free location. Check the signal levels and adjust your antenna if the level is too low; weather conditions can affect the signal.
