Wondered if someone could help with an issue I'm having with XBMC on my Pi.
Up until the weekend I had Raspbmc running pretty well - Pi is connected to a Yamaha AVR and then to a Panasonic plasma. I decided I wanted to try the option to use a USB stick in tandem with an SD and that's where the problem arises.
Before I explain the issue - I've tried Raspbmc and Openelec with USB installs at home with this issue but it works fine on a monitor at work without the AVR in the loop. I've tried different HDMI cables with no change.
Now the problem. installing goes well and main menu loads up but as soon as I start navigating it's like the handshake with the AVR goes. HDMI light on the AVR starts flickering and picture goes blank and periodically tries to reappear?
As I said this was working fine from just an SD card so not sure what introducing the USB stick at home has changed. I now the setup up of the Pi is ok as it works fine on my work monitor?
Any ideas what I can do?
