I have an older technomate satellite receiver which only has SCART connections. I used to have a Panasonic TV that came with a proprietary connection that allowed me to connect the receiver to the TV. However, I replaced the TV last year and the new one no longer has this facility.
I therefore bought a SCART to HDMI connector but can get absolutely nothing.
I know the unit is working as it powers up and all the lights are blue on the front, so it looks just as it should.
I've connected my 19.2 E dish but when I go to the relevant HDMI input, the screen is totally blank. I'm not even getting a menu. I've pressed various buttons on the front to see if that makes any difference but it didn't. I've turned the unit off altogether and back on again - same problem.
I've swapped out the HDMI cable but no joy. The SCART cable is new.
I therefore don't know what the problem is or what I might be doing wrong. I'm assuming that even if the problem's with the satellite cable connection, I still ought to see something on the screen to alert me to this.
Any suggestions?
