LG TV

When I plug my now to box into my LG TV it keeps flicking on and off literally every few seconds.
The now tv box works fine in my Panasonic tv. The LG tv works ok without the bow tv box plugged in. It's literally ad soon as I plug in the hdmi lead (which I've also tried others just in case) I've tried resetting to factory settings on the TV and resetting the the Now tv box but neither works. I've also switched off the wireless router and reset that but again doesn't work.
Any ideas???

Have you tried a different HDMI port on your LG TV when connected to the nowtv box ?

The only other thing that i would try (if you haven't done it already) is to go into the box menu settings and change the display from 1080p to 720p

 

Is it only recently that the nowtv box picture started to flicker on your LG TV or have you only now started to use the box on the LG television ?

 

Also, maybe try a forced software update in the box menu settings. 

 

Out of curiosity what is the model number of your LG TV ?

@Anonymous UserI am assuming that you don't have a smart LG TV? Also what type of Now box do you have, black, white or smart.

Please take a moment to click thanks or marked as solution if this answered your question. I am a community contributor and pop on when I can.

Hi Kez

 

I don't know much about LG TVs but I quickly looked up yours, the LG web-site seems to indicate that the latest software available for your TV is Software File (Version 03.21.62).

Now I can't say whether you need a SW update or not but it's something you can look into.
