    Strange, shouldn't be related to the tv.

    I guess the only thing you could do is continue

    The same thing. I can press the setting up button & select different mode ( 1080 50mz). But when I return to the home menu, it keep flashing.

    I did try it on my 22 lcd monitor with HDMI input. It works & NO flashing on main menu.

    Does it mean my Samsung 55 LCD doesn't work with this little toy?

    That's very strange. Do you have another hdmi cable you can try ?

    Padman.
    I used BOTH (Original HTMI cable from Ubox & other from TVPAD 3). Not sure is my Samsung 55 TV LCD issues since it works on my 24 Acer LCD monitor with HDMI input.

    Hi Mr Padman can you find out with UB box has setup PAL or NTSC by default ( because UB box made in HK) May be this the problem?

    Not sure how to find that out. HK should run NTSC anyway.

    However, in the Settings -> Display. There is a HDMI output mode that you can set manually. Perhaps the OP need to manually set it for his big tv ?

    I think you need to call the seller and told them what happened ,maybe they can give you a replacement.
  • padmanpadman Moderator
    @owen That's hella weird then. Maybe you can try a factory reset on the tv ?? :#
    I tried but it still no luck.

  • HK used PAL, select NTSC and 1080p 60hz
  • I know make change the 1080p60z ...... but I can't find the setting for from PAL to NTSC.

    Many Thanks
  • padmanpadman Moderator
    @owen PAL/NTSC is only for the RCA. HDMI is not needed.
  • padmanpadman Moderator
    @535four ohhh snap that's right. in my memories I remember HK being NTSC because I remember how my nintendo (Japan) was using NTSC.
    HK used PAL, select NTSC and 1080p 60hz
  • Nintendo? it reminds me that machine used floppy disk to load the games that I bought it from HK :)
