    Hi Everyone,

    This is my first post on the forum so forgive me if i am going over old ground.

    I specifically joined this forum because I have now started to experience the dreaded green screen. I have read a lot about this just through Google searches and it seems to be a very common problem. I have got in touch with the seller of my box to see if i can send for a replacement but i thought i should post here as i have a couple of questions:

    -Is there a sure fire long term fix for this problem? (I have seen fixes that are short term like cycle though V-format button, buy new scart lead, turn off and on, change sequence of turning TV and Box on. I have tried them all and they only last for a couple of hours at the most before the problem comes back.

    - Have Humax acknoledged this issue at all? If so are they working on a fix for it?

    - I do love the HDR Fox T2 but if i get a replacement is this problem very likely to happen again because ill just get my money back and try a different brand

    Thanks

    Tom

    Start off by telling us how old your HDR is, what version of software it is using and the make and model of TV.

    I have Foxsat HD Recorder and had green screen problems with my Panasonic TV.
    After nearly giving up and getting a new box I have finally found a solution that works for me.
    1. Make sure box and TV are off.
    2...Turn on Humax first.
    3. Make sure that the box goes past Boot and shows a TV channel on its display.
    4. Then turn on TV.
    Hope this works for others with this problem.
