Hey, I've got an Amazon fire tv hooked up to my Toshiba 65H14 through its only hdmi port. This has worked just fine for about a year, then just stopped showing video suddenly last week. I figured it was a weird software update on the fire tv and Amazon would just roll out an update to fix it. I had some time to troubleshoot and here are my findings. Not sure where to go from here:


  • ■ Fire tv worked fine with the current setup for a year
    ■ Now it boots up, shows the amazon logo, then when fully booted only shows a blue screen (but does actually function.
    ■ I switched fire tv #1 on tv #1 with fire tv #2 on tv #2.
    ■ The "bad" fire tv works on the other tv and the "good" fire tv does not work on the first tv.
    ■ Using a brand new hdmi cable changes nothing.
    ■ Booting up the blu-ray player has the same issue - it shows the logo while booting, then blacks out the screen when it's done.
    ■ Hooking my laptop up to the tv works fine.

So what's going on here? Is there some sort of video mode that stopped working on the tv or something?
