Hey gang, long time no been but back now and excited.
Bought some gear and the first thing I hook up and has an issue is a UMC-1. Supposedly a NOS that had been updated a "couple" years ago. So I hook it up and begin trying to set it up. Issues:
1. No video out 2. Audio out goes from No audio to Dolby Digital and back and forth every few seconds. 3. Fighting to get through the menu and select options as it closes the menu out after usually a few seconds unless I disconnect almost everything.
I attempted to read the FW version currently on the unit and it isn't working through the three button sequence.
I attempted to access the FW update software and the site doesn't respond.
Is the UMC-1 the way of the dinosaur at this point? I had some minor glitches when I had my first UMC-1 but this has me even more nervous at this point.
Thanks for any help!

I don't think they've made a UMC-1 in 8 years. Did you buy the unit from Emotiva? Sounds like you got a bum unit. I know about 3 years ago they were offering either $80 or $100 for working units to pull apart for parts. Not too sure the board is even supported by modern HDMI equipment.

Well that stinks. I'll contact emo on chat today and confirm. The seller has been more than accommodating and understanding of the issue but if it is fixable I'd go that route. Oh well. Thanks stiehl, much appreciated.

Did you factory reset it through the menu? Had a couple of small quirks with mine that the FR resolved.

Mine has an intermittent problem, goes black then back to the subject, either netflix, cd or streaming video and audio level is different. Sometimes resets video to the beginning no matter how far I am in viewing. Any ideas? Power supply? Thanks
