    Instead of pulling it out, what happens if you select a different input on the TV and then re-select the Foxsat HDMI port ?

    Try swapping the hdmi cables between the youview box and the Foxsat. Try swapping the HDMI ports used between Foxsat and Youview box. Have you tried cycling through the vformat options ? Have you checked the TV makers website to see if firmware update is available ?

    If the picture goes off, does cycling through the v-format options get it back ? Did you swap hdmi ports as requested ?. Make and model of TV ?

    Running out of ideas. Some TV's are reported to have issues with Foxsat-hdrs on boot if the box is actually recording in sby or awaiting a scheduled accurate recording programme to start. You can tell this if your Foxsat-hdr is set to low power sby. During recording or awaiting the start the clock will be displayed. Booting from full sby does not have this issue. Can you check if this is the case with your box and TV.
