Hi, I've setup a dish pointing @ Hotbird to pickup Thai TV (not the first time I've successfully done this) and have it piped into a Sky Digi box (although it's the first time I've done this ), now this was working fine some time ago but I checked it yesterday & recieve a clear picture but there's no audio (even though other channels broadcast on the same 12207 MHz frequency are fine). I've rescanned the frequency and added the channel back in but the same problem occurs. Is there a problem with the broadcast @ the moment or am I missing something here.

Thanks in advance,

Ronnie

hello , we have tgn on hotbird through the sky decoder also,and yes we oftern get picture no sound or nothing at all sometimes , then when go back to watch sky and then switch back to the other dish to look back later its all ok,the strange thing is tgn radio always seems to work though,
annoying many times i find my wife looking at the screen in silence lip reading some thai soap,

Yep, it seems to be normal.

Cheers for the replies...

It was working fine tonight, when the audio stops again I'll suggest DG's wifes lip reading technique and see how that goes

Sky digi receivers are purposely designed for Sky UK are are not user friendly for any other use digital satellite receivers are so cheap now you are way better off using a seperate receiver

Hi good people,
how many Thai channels can you receive in total? Do I understand correctly the channel(s) are all located on the Hotbird satelite?

Regards Janner

It's only the one channel with a variety of programs throughout the day.
