Turned on my system and I’ve got a picture from the Edge but no sound. I change sources and then come back to Tivo. No sound. I power down my system, including the Tivo, power on and now no sound and no picture. All black.
I turn the Edge around and unplug the HDMI. Immediately I’ve got my Denon AVR sending it’s basic pic to the TV, basically it says “Denon”. This tells me until I unplugged the HDMI from the back of the Edge, it was sending a signal. Unfortunately it was black and soundless.
So I plug the HDMI back into the Edge and everything is fine, I’ve got sound and picture. I know this is a basic first try to fix a problem and I’m glad it worked. I just find it odd the Tivo would send a signal that was basically black screen and no sound. I would have thought if the HDMI wasn’t quite seated properly, it wouldn’t be sending a signal at all. This implies to me that the HDMI was properly plugged in.
Is this something the Edge does when it starts getting flaky? It’s a year old.
