[QUOTE="ProDave, post: 240776, member: 6969"] This is also a know issue with Sky HD boxes. Particularly Samsung Sky HD boxes and Samsung LCD tv's used together. There, it's not so much a case of interfering with the IR sensor, but swamping it so nothing works. My Mother (85 this year) had a fault on her tv. it was stuck on BBC2. No mater what she did, it went back to BBC2. My Sister who lives near went for a look and couldn't understand it, and phoned me as she thought "something was sending a signal" Anyway after getting nowhere, mum went and bought new tv, identical to the faulty one. Unpacked it, tuned it in, only to find that too was stuck on BBC2. Further investigation, found the "2" button of the original remote was stuck down, and that was still in the room with the new set.
