V6box black screen then restarting

Our V6 box has started cutting out, giving a black screen, then loss of HDMI output to the TV and eventually rebooting itself.

Happening mainly when watching content from catch-up (Virgin recorded material/ content from Sky Witness and such).

Shows ‘restarting’ and will maybe let use watch an episode before doing it again.

Any ideas?

Hi @g0akc 

Sorry to say but any box that keeps restarting is on it's way out and will need replacing.

If I were you I would watch all of your recorded programs as quickly as possible as you can't transfer them over to a new box. Hopefully some of them will be available on catch up/on demand or apps.

Also make a note of all your series links.
