Is my V8 UHD Fried?

Post by uwualex »

Been running the Mars version from 10/11/2023 for the past few days, and no issues.
I turned my receiver on today and everytime i interact with the menu or anything OS related it shows like this (images attached):

Although if i exit the menus the tv/stations play just fine. But the receiver is unusable because i cant change any options.

Any ideas this is fixable?

Use a different HDMI lead, or try with a SCART lead.

Tried different cables and different TVs. Its not the cables because that only happens within the V8's options/menus.

You have said that you use different cables, you have not said which ones, did you try Scart cable.

Try the "TV Mode" button.
That will change the resolution.

It maybe the menu use PAL while the Auto / use channel resolution uses what you tV can see.

If you get it back set the output for your TV, not Auto resolution.
