Z10 not outputting video
« on: March 20, 2020, 11:23:00 PM »
Hi everyone.

Grateful for some thoughts on a weird issue with my Z10. One night it is working fine, the next it is not outputting video.

There has been no software update or issue like a power cut during this time. Simply worked fine one night, blank the next.

I've done a factory reset, but that has not changed anything. The front screen displays "Boot" then "Hello" then the time, so I assume this is not a software issue, but perhaps a problem with the main board. I've tried with different displays and HDMI cables but the result is the same - no picture.

Has anyone got any suggestions as to what I try next?

Many thanks for your help.

It sounds like a problem where the box is outputting in an HDMI mode the TV doesn't understand.

As a catch-all solution try reinstalling the emergency firmware. This will reset everything to factory. Here: https://www.zidoo.tv/Support/support_guide/guide_target/%2BNGNMlfRy9Xeq7k9e%5Bld%5D3ulg%3D%3D.html

Thank you for this advice. I tried the steps detailed in the link you provided, but sadly they have not solved the situation. When I try to flash, the box just hangs at the “Zidoo” splash screen. If I don’t flash the drive, the splash screen displays then the screen goes blank.

Grateful if you could assist me with the RMA procedure.
