    Sound but no picture

    Bit of a strange problem but over the last week or so when changing channles using the left and right keys when skipping through SD channels the picture goes but the audio is still there. When this happens the infobar isn't displayed, neither are menus or bouquets but I can carry on changing channels, the channel does change as the audio and the display on the front of the box changes.

    The only way to get the picture back is to flick it to a HD channel, so say BBC HD, the picture will then come back, I can then punch in the channel number of a previous channel that was blank and the picture will appear but if I then change channels using the left/right buttons it may change channels 3 or 5 times OK then the picture will go but the audio remains.

    I'm using the NewNigma2 image and somebody has suggested changing images which I'll try over the next day or so but I'm wondering if anybody has heard of something similar before?

        I've had a comment back on another forum to say that they've also seen this problem and it's related to the NewNigma2 image so am going to put OpenPLI on and see it fixes the problem.

            Forgot all about this, tried changing images and had exactly the same problem but fixed it in the end, turned out that when I have the resolution setting set to anything except Auto it causes this problem, flick the setting to Auto and everything is fine.
