How To Set Sky Box On Single Feed Mode When Connecting Only One Cable

‍

If you're connecting your Sky+ or Sky+HD box with only one satellite cable. The Sky box should be set to single feed mode so that everything works properly. Please note that when you connecting a satellite PVR with only one satellite cable you will lose the ability to record one programme and watch another or record two programmes at one time, so you shoudl try to connect your Sky box with two satellite cables where possible to get the full range of services.
