MAG 256 - Picture problem

A couple of days ago my screen started to flicker when using the MAG. It reminds me of the snowy picture you would get with an analogue aerial that isn't connected probably and on occasions you would get a crackling sound as well.
It happens on both the portal and when playing media so it is not my IPTV sub.
I have swapped out HDMI cable and tries the other port on my TV.
I have a BT TV box that works using the same cable and on both HDMI ports so that rules out the cable and the TV. Reset box to default as well.

I bought a RCA cable, and as my TV doesn't have RCA I got a RCA to SCART connector but when I try to hook it up nothing appears on the screen.

Does it sound like a HDMI problem and can anyone help with getting the RCA up and running?
 
It sounds like it could be the HDMI input on the box has you have tried the hdmi cable in a different device and different sockets.
In the back of the box you can fit a 3mm jack to 3 phonos but picture isn't anywhere near as good as HDMI.
Can't you send the box back as faulty?
