have you tried the rf out,also check all is correct in control panel
but try rf out if all is fine then maybe hdmi on reciever could be faulty

Just tried with RCA plugs & picture is ok so only thing i can think of is there`s a fault with the hdmi connection.

i`d got a xbox control lead trapped under spiderbox so pulled box out 2 free lead & when i put it back well fcuk me no green screen with hdmi.I know hdmi was in correct so there must be something wrong with hdmi socket but it`s working now,will let lee know monday & see what he say`s.

Ps will give that a try in morning ech,

maybe it was interference from the xbox control lead being under the motherboard base causing the tint , anything is possible and interference from adjacent cables is well known

so hopefully thats all it was and you can rest easy

I don't know the answer to that one but i have a question which is,
my loop through dose'nt give me a picture on the second receiver which
is a Protek9600ip. I have tested the patch lead and its ok with no breaks.:cuss:

Well i think i`ve sorted all my problems i was having.Remote started working yesterday but i then got the green tint back on picture through hdmi,so i thought the box must be a dud or the firmware i loaded went bad some how.
So a couple of hour ago i got a rs232 cable out d/l software from here nipped the old bum cheeks together & went 4 it,took about 15min to finish,then followed echelon`s simple to follow tut,loaded firmware etc back on & all has been ok for the last hour.
