V6 Losing Picture

[Dontread]

HI,

For the last few days, I have been having issue where the picture drops out and the screen goes black for 3-7 seconds. I have tried changing the HDMI cable but it's the same issue.

Any ideas?

Does this happen with, say... live TV? Recorded programmes? OnDemand? Streaming apps?

If live TV.. any particular channel(s)?

It's happening on Live tv as far as I can tell. I haven't tried any apps etc. It's pretty random as well.

Have you tried a different HDMI input?

Good shout! 

Not as yet. I have it running through a hdmi switcher and all the other ports are working as they should so did not think to try. Will give this a go and see how i get on.

When trouble shooting, bypass all intermediate devices which in your case means a direct connection between your TV and V6.

Hi Dontread

Thanks for posting and welcome to the community. Sorry to hear of the TV picture issue on the V6. 

I have ran some system checks and you do need a technician visit, this is because the input levels are all showing as out of spec.

I shall send you a PM now to assist further.

Kind regards,

Hi Dontread

Thanks for joining me on PM, I was glad to hear the fault has rectified itself, do keep an eye on it though as discussed and let me know any further issues.

Best,

Hi John,

I have just seen the message above. Is this why the image breaks up sometimes and becomes pixilated?

Hi @Dontread

Thanks for posting on our community forum

This is indeed a common reason of why you'd experience the issues with the image - please keep us updated with how your tech visit goes 🙂
