Hi,
have you tried different HDMI input on your TV and a different source (DVD-/BR-player) to check that your TV is OK?

ciao

Shut down and power everything off at the mains. Change HDMI sockets and try a different HDMI cable if possible.

Then connect the box directly to the tv and test

At least now you know both tv and receiver are ok. Hopefully just a dodgy cable.

Old cables are working without any lines. I think it needed a restart from the main Power socket
