    Hi JB and all.
    Hope you are all well.
    I may be receiving a faulty Duo 2 to look at.
    The output from HDMI is bad (pic attached)
    Just thought I'd see if anyone has experienced this and maybe knows
    what the problem could be?
    Thanks all.
    Regards,
    Jules.

    I'v never seen this on a Vu+, but since you have it in the menu and I may assume that it also happens on another tv/monitor as also when playing a video file or/and with channels view, then i'm afraid it's caused due the cpu, or with some luck a bad connection to the hdmi port, or bad hdmi pcb connector.

    Maybe it helps when you remove the tuner(s), or maybe it's caused due one of the hdmi power surge protection diodes D601 etc.
    But when not than it seems to me some lightning strike damage to the cpu.
