    Screen going blank on start up

    Screen going blank on start up

    Hi My box fires up fine. After 20 seconds the home screen goes blank every time. I have to get the original remote out and press menu to get it back to life. Any suggestions for fixing this? Thanks Garnett

    Recording from my T8

    So - I want to record a sporting event this Friday. It has always been a no in the past. What is wrong with using an HDMI capture box as you would use on an X box or similar? Any experience or suggestions welcomed. Thanks

    Hi I use the BT Sport app on the box and get perfect quality without any issues. Same with YouTube. It is only when I move into Kodi that I get issues. It was the reason that I upgraded my box 2 months ago. I know you can’t advise on this but on Kodi 16 I use Ares and 17 Wookie. Both go for...
