Atemio Memesis no HDMI output

[Pixl]

When I do a cold start up I see the Atemio logo on the screen for a bit, then goes black screen as the box boots up. I have normal video out of the AV jacks. Something in the E2 settings?

Post your settings file in etc/enigma2. Sounds like something is not set right, and all info should be in that file.

What is the correct resolution for your television? Is it 720p?

[Pixl]

1080i

Ok, at EB's suggestion I tried several HDMI cables today. They all work with the Nenesis IF I bypass my external HDMI switch. My TV only has two HDMI ports, so this switch (remote controlled) expands this to 5 ports. All my other FTA receivers pass thru this switch with no problem.
Anybody know anything about HDMI protocols? Seems to me there is some sort of handshake when HDMI is connected. Do I need a different switch or is the Nemesis hardware the problem?

[el bandido]

What is the make/model of the HDMI switch?

[eastof111]

Did you check all five ports to be sure they were all compatible with the Nemesis? I had problems with an auto five port switch not recognizing a receiver until I tried each port and got lucky.

[Pixl]

I just tried all 5 ports on the switch. No go for the Nenesis.
The switch was bought from Amazon and is a Kinivo 501 BN, and supports up to HDMI 1.3

I have a 3x1 HDMI switch with a Manhattan 1933 on one port and a WD media player on another port. If the Manhattan has power, even in standby, it won't let the media player take control of the switch automatically. So, I plugged it into the cable box and have it set to cut power to the outlet when the cable box is in standby, so the media player can then take over the switch.

And then there is that old Sadoun 22kHz switch that if you connect it to a port on a DiSEqC switch and then switch to that port, won't relinquish the port to let it switch to another port...

Funny, these switches, eh?:crazy:

Hello Pixl
I have the same switch and 5 receivers connected to it and they all are in standby, never had any problems, make sure the output is connected to the TV.
Regards.

Sublime, I tried unpluging all the other ports, still blank screen.

From what I've learned so far I am narrowing down on the receiver as the trouble, mainly the software, maybe the video driver. The HDMI cable and the HDMI switch pass the initial cold boot up screen showing a "ATV" logo. I presume there is the equivalent of a bios in the Nemesis that initially controls the on board devices such as the video. And like a computer, further into the boot, the software drivers take over the video.

To confirm try another image.

To confirm try another image.

I've already tried ATV, and Atemio4you. Both have this problem. OpenPLI seems to be popular but I don't see a build for the Atemio Nemesis. Any others I should try?

[eastof111]

I can't vouch for any of these images solving the problem, but, you never know until you try....

I tried the openHDfreaks build today. Pretty much the same as the other builds I've had on the Nemesis. No change in the HDMI output.

[Pixl]

Tried the OpenDroid this morning. HDMI still doesn't work thru a switch. I liked some of the features and look of this one.

[Pixl]

Italysat doesn't get it. Looks like most other builds.

[Pixl]

OpenNFR pretty much the same.

[Pixl]

Egami 6.6 does not fix my HDMI problem, but it does look like a interesting image. I like the info bar at the bottom that contains signal, quality, freq, polarity, SR. Very nice. I have also spent some time on their very good message board. Looks like the guys are getting some support from this team.

Well here is my latest brainstorm on this switch. The Nemesis has a HDMI input as well as a output. I could try feeding all my secondary FTA receivers thru the switch and then in and back out of the Nemesis. Trouble is I can't find where on the remote or the E2 menus where to access the HDMI input. Anybody else have this feature on your box?

[eastof111]

That would be an interesting experiment, since the input is probably for a dvd device. I wonder if any of your images have incorporated this input feature yet, seeing how the Nemesis is new. Since your rc doesn't have a button for it, the feature may be part of the recorded movies playback feature of the receiver. Maybe there, it may have the option to select from you hard drives, usb drives or usb input.

East,
I looked in that area of the menus, didn't see "hdmi input". The others are in there. Anyone else have a box with a HDMI input?

[eastof111]

Don't know if this will help..........

ATEMIO NEMESIS E2&TitanNit Firmware M31064 v1.56


HDMI input is active (PiP button) <---------------------------------------------
Improved PiP function and menu added (2x PiP button)

[eastof111]

You should see this....

[Pixl]

East when I push the pip button I just get a small square in the upper right corner with the same picture as the main screen. I do not see the menu you posted.

[eastof111]

I think you have to push the yellow or blue button to access that menu, depending on the image.

[Pixl]

Thanks, the yellow button does the job. Too bad though, the HDMI switch is not recognized properly by the Nemesis HDMI input, all I get is sound, no pic.
