    just a guess but is it possible the receiver is overheating ?.

    To check the heat, Menu -> Information -> About
    To me, it looks like flakey HDMI connection though.
    Are you sure the cables are seated properly? Have you another HDMI input on the TV you can use?

    Thanks for the reply but i checked the temperature no variation and have the the fan running at over 900 rpm.The hdmi is fine on the tv as have a blueray player thats work fine on the same connection.Had the hdmi routed through a amp but connected it directly to the tv but no difference.

    hi,
    I had this problem. I also got a pink screen , no sound, sound but no picture and finally no picture or sound. i always had to change the av settings(sometimes by the display on the front of the box as i had no picture) from 1080 to any thing else and i'd get the picture and sound back. had to do this every day so I took the build version back to 750 and I've not had a problem since. hope this works for you. Rob.
