DM800 No Pictures
Was wondering if anyone could help me.
I'm getting sound and I'm getting the menus and EPG stuff on my DM800 but I'm not getting any pictures. But I can get pictures when I stream to the PC.
Tried it with both the SCART plug and the DCI plug but neither worked. Played around with the AV settings but no joy there either.

All it takes for evil to prevail is for good men to do nothing
Use DVI, but then use the web interface to get to the settings menu. Somewhere in there you must select the output type (dvi/scart/etc). NOTE THAT THERE ARE TWO DVI OPTIONS - ONE FOR DVI-PC AND ONE FOR DVI.
I suggest you try each DVI option, rebooting the unit after setting.
I got fed up and did a Factory reset but the menus were grinding along so I unplugged it for the night. Set it up again this morning (menus went through at normal speed) and the pictures are back.
So the settings could have been messed up somewhere along the line but I'm leaning towards it being too hot. Probably should have been a bit more scientific about it.
thanks

The fact that there's a highway to hell and a stairway to heaven says a lot about the anticipated traffic flow.

Hi,
I'm having exactly the same issue, no video, just sound, even on FTA channels.
I was thinking in re-flash but ill try the factory resetting.
