Hi @Anonymous User 

 

First thing i would try is a different HDMI cable, then if that doesn't work try another HDMI port on your television.

 

Also, perhaps try changing the Display setting on the NowTV box from Auto to 1080p, then 720p to see if that makes a difference.

 

Should you be using an external HDMI switch box, then bypass it and plug the box directly into your television HDMI port.

 

If the fault is still happening, try temporary testing the box on another television.

Did you try the box on another television if you have a second TV in the home ?

 

Apart from that see if anything in this trouble shooting guide helps.
