Looking for some help/ work arounds as this is driving me nuts
Going to be a long post.
XMC-2 FW 2.5 JVC 4910u Projector, Comcast XG1v4 4k box, Sony and Panasonic 4K dvd players.
Now that I think back to when I switched back to comcast last summer, not sure this ever worked right on the comcast box but, here is the problem
I have zero problems if I leave it to low power mode where it has to do the pull boot up, same length of time as if I cycle the power switch.
If I have it set to video remains on/ standby. XMC2 will lock up overnight.
when it locks up, physical power button is un responsive, but after 3-5 pushes some times it will power on, but that is it, no face panel buttons or remote buttons work, no video output either or sound.
It seems to lock up only if I leave it on the Comcast input (HDMI-1) and power it off and if I switch to a different input it will be find the next day
It will also work for a month if I dont have the comcast box hooked up... so I have reduced it to that I have to believe.
XMC-2 latest firmware V2.5, but also had this on V2.3 when I received it back from EMO last summer, I think it was 2.2 prior to repair.
I have done multiple factory resets and then flashed V2.5
having re flashed, changed zero menu settings from default and having only the amps projector and comcast box, it will lock up, no dirac, no usb, no network cable
I have used both HDMI out 1 and 2, no difference and have also used several different inputs all making no change.
Comcast box I have rolled through and tested all the output resolution choices and has had zero impact
I have swapped HDMI cables to the 8K Monoprice ones that are highly recommended here time and time again.
I have run the CEC test from boot, that has failed, it had failed that test prior to sending back to Emo last summer for a power supply issue and have read that its not 100% indicative of real issues
I have run out of options to try things to switch on or off....
HDMI really is the shittiest interface ever
