My TV box has started making a major 'crackle', and it sounds like it's round the PSU area so I've turned it off. We actually heard it over the TV

It seemed really hot too - I know they get warm but with the cracking as well, I didn't want to risk it!

I called the fault line and they're sending someone out this afternoon, and I imagine it'd be a new box....

The only thing is is now I am worried that I might get a different type of box - We have tivo and therefor use a little IR sender thing, and I know some of the boxes don't work with this - I was wondering if this is unfounded, as I think it might be region dependant. We're in Nottingham, NG5

And I've just realised.......
