Hi Guys need some help to understand a peculiar fault.I have flashed a Skybox F5 for someone and everything works perfectly including lines etc.However the box only works with 1 particular HDMI cable and only with my year old LG tv.I have tried it on other Tvs with a different cable/same cable but nothing even through the Scart socket.Ihave 3 hd ports with 3 cables but can only get a picture with 1 particular cable
Not seen anything like this before.Tried factory reset etc Will not let me flash a new firmware,getting hardware mismatch error so I dont want to push it and brick it completely.Any ideas?
