Default Blank screen on Laky Pro

Hello

I have been using the Laky pro from it's first issue (well about 6months)

It runs fine except that when you change channels the screen is blank more often than not. Sound is always fine.
If you then go up a channel and back a few times you eventually get a picture.
It was fine at first because I was back up and running, but now it's a bit of a pain.

Anyone know of a solution to this.

it's a DBOX2.

Thanks in advance

David

Never used this image for a while..........try pressing the blue button to see if ucode selection is in that menu structure. When you find it switch from 014 to 001A or vice versa to see if that helps.......your box will reboot after a ucode change !!

AL's image is not in the downloads section on this site.

Try going into settings > driver and boot options and turn use hardware sections off.
Also in the same dbox menu make sure use spts mode is also set to off.

I went to this screen and both items were set to off.

However i set them to On then back to off.

The problem now seems to have been resolved.

Many thanks for all your help
