<table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" ><tr><td valign="top" style="font: inherit;">Now I'm once again not sure if it really is a tv issue or just a configuration issue. I definitely get a splash screen and everything when I first turn my myth box on, it just goes away as soon as it boots into mythbutnu (until there is some sound). I'm going to grab the FE/BE I have upstairs and hook it up down here to see if that makes a difference over the dedicated FE I have been using.<br><br>--- On <b>Sun, 2/6/11, Andy <i><mizeraka@yahoo.com></i></b> wrote:<br><blockquote style="border-left: 2px solid rgb(16, 16, 255); margin-left: 5px; padding-left: 5px;"><br>From: Andy <mizeraka@yahoo.com><br>Subject: Re: [mythtv-users] No Display<br>To: mythtv-users@mythtv.org<br>Date: Sunday, February 6, 2011, 4:02 AM<br><br><div id="yiv682381779"><table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0"><tbody><tr><td valign="top"
