    Undertoker - suggest you also checkout the TV for firmware updates.

    Well the non Cec cable arrived
    Sadly it made no difference at all, the damn thing still flashes on and off when passed through the surround sound box

    To add to the aggro my HDMI switch also died, so it's cost me another £30 just to buy another work around solution.......I am not happy with this humax box at all thus far.

    Humax were utterly hopeless and their advice is "don't use your surround sound" and is was accompanied by "we don't know when any new firmware will be released"
    Less than useless support frankly and they are aware of issues with the latest firmware causing this issue.

    I suppose my next port of call is trying to find some updated firmware for my surround sound box next....
    Sigh
    It's a Sony STR-KS100, so that's my task next.

    I only wanted a freesat box upgrade....

    I don't have a hdr1000s, but a hd-fox-t2 would only sort of work as best it could with hdmi after I'd done a factory reset on the humax.

    If you've not done so already then I'd suggest a factory default/reset using your non cec cable. You will lose your schedule so take a note first, but you won't lose recordings.
    I think most of us here thought the non cec cable would sort the problem, let us know how you get on.
