Hi, I inadvertently changed the video output (?) to RGB and my box is jammed on the Main Menu display but no picture on tv. I have tried uploading a firmware update but still displays Main Menu and will not respond to the controller.

Is there a hardware reset button?

Any suggestions?

How long have you had the box? I have noticed that the PSU's on the Fortec HD boxes tend to last about 2 years & then go wonky.

I take it you have an hdmi conection in place,if so disconect and use a scart lead to bring back picture on set,once this is done reconect hdmi lead and select that through the menu,I did something simlar and this is how repaired the cock up
