Service installed today, TV keeps turning itself back on?!
Whether I do it from the remote or turn it off via the TV I come back later and it's turned itself back on again? Anyone got any idea why it's doing this? My TV is a Dell LCD monitor.
For now I have to keep turning the box off when I want the TV permanently off.

How are you connecting the monitor to the box?

There's an HDMI and a SCART cable connected.

Is there any pattern to the TV switching on? i.e during the day or only when artificial light is on
What box is it? I assume HD as it has HDMI and I presume V+ as scart as well.
Whats the model of the monitor? Seems unusual to have a scart connection but not impossible.
