sounds like PAL mode and your TV prolly does not support that.
Take it to another TV and try. If works, then find the menu to take it out of PAL (PAL is a European format).


Or your HDMI cable is faulty.

tried another tv(I was in another house when it started) at my house now, same, as I said , nothing but flipping , ever thing I do or go to its rolling and u can't do anything. also the hdmi is working on another box. Anyway to do a factory reset with a USB?

ahh yes, maybe that HDMI cable does work on another box but that is not prove that it is faulty for the Mag
HDMI cables are tricking that way :eek:

pull adapter plug from mag. plug back in , immediately hold the menu button on remote , bios screen will pop up . select tv output to match your tv , not pal.
leave screen , will reboot should see tv .

If you can see the headings at all, look for the TV System in the BIOS menu...

Copy from an earlier post with a PAL situation...
--In the bios I go to the right on TV system, until I get to NTSC and then push the F1 button and that saves it...clear bios picture...

Press and hold service button (FN) on back side of STB until STB is power off, or during 2 seconds after power on. Switching between modes done by releasing button at specific time according to LED indication.

There are 4 modes:
§ Mode 1. STB load from first U-boot - Press and hold service button, power on STB. Wait until LED indicator change it's mode (LED is white, slow blinking). If button button will be released STB will load in mode 1. Not releasing of button - STB will go to mode 2.
