Hey guys, I set my mom up with a firestick yesterday and IPTV after months of trying to get her to ditch her expensive TV service. She agreed to try it but after setting it up she got a black screen on her official tivo box when she changed it back over.
She still had sound coming through the TV and could access the menus on her VM box but all channels were black. Upon removing the firestick and rebooting the box the TV screen came back!!
Anyone had this issue? Is it just a coincidence and rebooting the tivo box sorted it? (Tried rebooting with the firestick still in and still had a black screen!)
I have read on the VM forums that other people have had the same issue, not necessarily related to another HDMI device being plugged in. At the moment though she doesn't want to plug the firestick back in just in case it is the cause.
Any ideas guys?
