Homepage picture boxes blank

fumpin — Thu, 30 Apr 2026 15:33:16 GMT

When pressing the home button on the controller, you get taken to the menu/tv guide screen which has multiple boxes with one showing what's on TV at the moment along a strap line as well as other channels. Every single day after an hour or so use, the main remote control highlight box goes blank yet the other boxes are still showing a picture. Wherever you move along or down, that section stays blank and the only way to clear it is to do a reset then the picture comes back. I have done this many times over the past month or so and even checked with the broadband supplier who tell me everything is ok with my connection. This happens on the pick as well which is why I thought it could be a broadband issue but my speed is over 50mbps when this annoying issue occurs. It also says no WiFi connection when first turned on despite the WiFi option being turned off as I have an Ethernet cable. I am very frustrated with this problem and fed up with resetting it, powering off the tv and broadband etc etc which only work for an hour each time then for the picture box to go blank. Any ideas for this are most welcome.

I've been having the same issue.
I've had to do a TV reset 3 times in the last 5 hours because of it.
