Hi All,

Sorry if this is in the wrong forum but I am bit confused, I picked up a HDMI automatic switch from maplin so I can have both Sky+HD box and Xbox 360 connected (I only have 1 hdmi on my tv...)

the problem is that I can only view the Sky TV if my xbox is also switched on....if I switch off the xbox, the switch kills the signal for Sky too!

any ideas? lol.

driving me nuts now....cheers!

Can't fix your problem but can recommend another switch box. Its made by 'neet' and is only £15. Ive got one and works perfectly, also there hdmi v1.4 cables are excellent and reasonably priced.
