hi gonzo i did exactly as you said and when i switched the pvr back on i got the home screen come on that said freetime humax then after that i just got a blank screen again
Hi tez
I experience the same problems with a Sony TV of similar age (Bravia KDL-37P3020)
I find that you have to start with both the TV and the 1010s turned off.
Turn on TV and select the HDMI input required. Wait a moment to allow the TV to fully initialise then turn on the Humax. Wait before turning on the Humax at least until the on screen graphic displaying the tv source goes off. It is not necessary to select the source as the Humax via the HDMI connection should swith the TV over automatically but it helps with the waiting
If I do not follow this procedure then like you I get no signal from the HDMI input (but do from a connected scart input*)
When turning off the TV I have to remember to turn of the Humax as well or no signal is present when the TV is turned back on again (very occasionally it will display a picture but at weird resolutions which can only be rectified by going through the “start up” routine.
I have two 1010s boxes (replaced sky multi room) and the other is connected to a Samsung TV and this has no problems and yet that TV is older than the Sony. I have swapped the boxes over and the same symptoms are displayed by both boxes when connected to the Sony.
I have tried with the HDMI control both on and off and this made no difference.
Hope some of this may help you
*I have the scart connection as my family get very annoyed when it does not work 1st time so they can just use the scart input instead

With the scart cable connected so you can see the box.
Press settings picture and sound look at resolution. If it says 1080p change it to 1080i. (A 6yr old Sony is likely only to support 1080i).
Now try Gonzos test again.
thanks for you help I think the best thing I can do is wait until Christmas when i get a new tv and hope i dont get the same problems. although saying that i should not have to mess about. with it like i have had so it thumbs down for humus for me
it does say 1080i but it is greyed out anyway so i would not be able to alter it. I suppose this is because it is not recognizing the hdmi cable connected

If greyed out the box was probably recording. Out of interest try 720P as well.
no not recording just greyed out when i try going on to resolution it just skips by it

As you have tried 2, Humus, I would say it’s your TV setup. IMHO it’s either the cable or the TV’s HDMI connectors. Is the TV HD ready. Have you tried another HDMI port.

The poster said… “either the cable” …and the link you posted concludes with “it was the HDMI cable”. So I’m confused by your post.
