SVR-HDT500 IPlayer issue

richardgb — Tue, 03 May 2011 09:57:10 GMT

Just got the SVR-HDT500 and generally very pleased with it but I have one issue with IPlayer which seems odd. I can get into I Player but here is how the HDT500 behaves in 2 different scenarios;

1/ Press Red-Button and access Iplayer but dont play any content (perhaps cant find anything of interest) then press text button on remote control. HDT500 exits Iplayer and displays current channel

2/ Press Red-Button and access Iplayer and play some content. Then press text button on remote control as above. HDT500 exists Iplayer and displays blank screen. If I then move change channels the banner comes up to tell me I have moved onto say Channel 1 but still a black screen. I can bring up the guide and select another channel - still blank screen. Only solution seems to be to power off the box.

Not a massive issue but strange and a little annoying. Any suggestions/ideas welcome.

Just to let anybody interested know that this seemed to be cause by my Panasonic TV not correctly autoswitching on HDMI1 with the Sony box. Once I moved the Sony to HDMI2 and manually switched all seemed fine.
