254 bios

[telex]

Yesterday I received my 254. How can I enter the bios/settings without pulling the plug? Is there no button to reboot? (IPTV is working , portal is inserted)

whats the right Video setting for US TV? I have no audio on a lot of US channels (others have audio) and the aspect ratio ist wrong, no 16:9 on US channels

in settings you will see inner portal ,you will find reboot there and more settings

I know this menu but I can not call up this menu when the channel list is on screen?

when I power off the 254 (power button right above) and press menu button nothing happens...

and there is no front button on device

[Bkman2020]

Did you follow instructions i posted?

[telex]

I power off the device with remote button ( I would call it standby) and then press the menu button for long time but nothing happens.

The only way I can see the settings menu is to pull the power, restart and press the menu button while booting.

Once you power off, then push menu button then power on while holding the menu button down. You will see the bios menu

[telex]

thats more logic...

[telex]

sorry, no setting menu appear. When I push power button and menu button at the same time the 254 stay in standby

If you see the bios setup means you are in

you mean the NTSC / Pal thing? I can see image when I reboot with plug out . But I can not see image when I press menu+ power on

[Bkman2020]

During the reboot process try pressing f1 on remote if nothing try f2.

[K00lKatT]

you don't press power on to get to BIOS...you physically unplug the power jack or AC Plug

[telex]

that was my beginning question here, is it possible without physically unplug every time ! Restart with a button from the "channel list menu" (not from the setting menu)

[K00lKatT]

the choices are yours, you can boot up to home screen menu or last channel viewed...choice is in your menus

[telex]

dont understand... Which button I have to push for a real reboot, not for standby?
On dreambox I can do this, on PopcornHour I can do this. Simply a reboot button

[Bkman2020]

Please go on youtube search for mag254 bios menu or boot.

[telex]

like I said, only with physically unplug you can see the setup ...

Have you tryed using the composite cables that come with the box or a different tv set or swaping to a new hdmi cable?

[Bkman2020]

Try using the composite cables that came with your box maybe we can rule out a bad hdmi port on either tv or box its self.

if you exit from the channel list and go into settings, two choices you have are go into inner portal and reboot device

[crazed 9.6]

use that gear button on the remote. The button directly below the blue button.

that is the anwser I was waiting for all the time...But now I found it itself..
So now I dont need the pull the plug to go to the "portal" entry
