Mag 254 Will not load unless with HDMI Settings

I would never give up so many things to try first but if you did all you can send it back

I agree! I will try out any new idea given though. Cost me almost US$200 for purchasing, shipping and custom duties, and I had it for less than two weeks, so any new trouble shoot assistance would be welcome

Have you tried reboot . If tried and that didn't work then do a Mac reset. That will sort out everything. Remember to imp,up mag before doing reset, then plug back in
 
Having the same problem with 2 @ 254 the funny thing is before loading the new software and even after the new software the 254 worked with my hdmi ..I was setting them up for 2 friends when I got to their place "Bang" the same symptoms as yours. .I'm going to retrieve 1 of the box and switch to my hdmi cable and see what happens..
 
Solution !!!!!!



litrally after 24 hours of playing with the same issue i fixed it by

settings
system setting
video = video-1080p-60 Graphics-same as video

boot into your portal then watch it crash reboot and load portal with 720p
now

on the portal NOT inner portal

settings
video

then put video back the graphics from 720p to same as video
press home twice it will ask you to rest the box DONT DO IT!!!!!
press cancel. You have to go back twice for it to ask you to rest, if you only go back once then reload it seems to in the setting but not actualy change the resin reality.
now go back into
settings
reload portal

thats it you will ither be streaming as god intended or you will be looking at the right resolution but no channel list. I have 2 portals works with one but not the other GOOD LUCK and a HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!
