I have just acquired a new lg tv as a free gift from sky. My problem is u can't tune it in either auto or manually. I don't have a aerial just hdmi skybox

Question edited for clarity.

Although I had Sky in the UK before I moved to Canada, I am not conversant with this infra-red device. Scanning on a television is normally reserved for over-air signals via an aerial. Picking up specific device is via HDMI inputs, via Bluetooth or via other devices that are connected to your home WiFi network that the Smart Television can see.

I found this

You need to try and isolate the piece of equipment which is causing the problem.

You've already tried the aerial lead direct to the TV and this is OK.

Disconnect all scart leads and try the RF on its own.

Try the Aerial lead to video, then video to TV.

Try aerial direct to Sky box, then to TV.

Try just connecting the RF out from the Sky box to the TV (no aerial input), can you tune into a good channel 68 picture from the Sky box.

Then Try the VCR to the Sky box (no aerial input), see if you can tune into the VCR and Sky channel.
Hope that helps.......

Auto tune would be for the old analogue TV system I believe. Does the aerial connect through a box or direct to the TV? The Sky box should connect through scart (very old) or HDMI which you just need to choose the right input for. Look for a button on your remote for input or an icon that looks like a screen with an arrow pointing into the middle.

make sure your tv aerial plugged in back of tv and your tv is on the dtv setting before trying to retune it. the sky box is usually on the scart or hdmi setting. hope this helps

The sky box is the box you use to watch TV The flat panel is just the monitor to receive the picture from the sky box you cannot tune the TV to receive the sky EPG signal Use the HDMI input in the TV menu that the sky box is attached to

If the TV set is on the same stand as the Sky box then you don't tune at all. Connect with either a HDMI cable or a SCART. Use the AV input on the TV.

If you mean you have a bedroom set, and Sky is piped around the house on RF, then that's something different.

Make sure your TV has an analogue tuner as well as the digital one used for Freeview. (check the remote for a TV/DTV button). Go in the the TV tuning menu, and do an Auto tune for both analogue and digital.

do you mean if you hooked up the tv with the aerial antenna can not get any channel? ok if just a white raster only and doesn't scan or tuned even manually and auto search, the cause is bad tuner.

Try using manual tuning. Be sure the channel type is on TV or CATV, then store the channel.

This could be down to several things so sorry if this is long winded but really needed more info from yourself...

Sky gets its signal from the dish mounted on your exterior wall.

your terrestrial signal comes from your terrestrial aerial be it external or internal.

If you do have an aerial cable coming into your property and it is connect to your television. Go into your TV MENU and set it away on Auto Tune if this does not come up with any channels. Try auto tune on your built in Digital tv ie DTV if it has this option...

If neither of these work then you need a new aerial or it needs to be re-aligned.
Personnally I would not bother with a Terrestrial Aerial You already have Sky installed so this will be fine for when the Whole of the UK goes digital. Dont be fobbed off by people telly you that you need a Digital aerial as your sky dish is already Digial anyway.

Hope this Helps

Often when using a Sky box, one doesn't use the channel tuning feature of the Polaroid HDTV. Often one connects the Sky box to a component video input, and the Sky box does the tuning.

I hope that helps.
