    Lost HDMI output on my Foxsat HDR, Its been working fine ever since ive had it (about two years) apart from the odd rare handshake problem which V format on remote used to resolve on either TV. I've tried different cables, factory reset, firmware, rechecking connections, power down, TV settings reset, different TV and the problem still persists. Its working via nasty scart at the moment. All other HDMI devices are working fine. There is some life from the HDMI as the message on the TV changes when the Foxsat is powered up, also when hdmi switcher is inline light goes green. Spent the day trying to resolve it & lost lots of hair!

    Have I missed something ?

    Humax support sent me a file FOXSAT-HDR_upgrade.hdf (3.54 KB) it reset the box but the problem is still there. Guess its a hardware fault

    The file sent would have been a default file - enforces a factory reset on boot.

    Could still be under warranty dependant on when and where you bought it if definitely less then 2 years old.
