RodN Posted September 10, 2003 Posted September 10, 2003 Hi, I'm trying to fault find a problem with my new Strong 5290B STB. Everything has been working fine until this evening around 8.00pm or so. From that point on I have been unable to get any sort of digital transmissions. The symptoms are a little aerial in the top left hand corner of my screen, flashing with a red X. The rest of the unit seems to be working fine. It just refuses tune anything in. I guess I'm trying to narrow down if its the transmission in general, something specific to my area or something specific to the new unit that I've bought. Anyway any ideas would be appreciated...
DavidR Posted September 12, 2003 Posted September 12, 2003 You'll probably find that you were repeatedly fast-forwarding or rewinding a time-shifted program. That seems to cause the unit to crash. It does a 'soft' reboot but this doesn't seem to restart everything. The same thing happened to me (and is a common problem) and you need to power-cycle it to fix.
