Hi all
I take back all my previous smugness...
Tried to play a DVD for the first time tonight and since then the 91 is being really strange.
I have tried all the usual stuff - auto config, re-booting etc.
The problem is this.
When i press any source the speakers some out of stanby no problem but the 91 displays the big Meridian logo and then goes back into standby,
every successive press of the source keys does the same.
When i disconnect the comms cable it will respond and start up correctly.
All cables are in ok and look fine - nothing was touched.
Any hints...

Just noticed that irrespective of comms connection it does this.
it sometimes goes to source otherwise it will show logo and then go back into standby.
Running 2.11 - its pretty fresh.

Hi Saltire, I wonder if one of the comms leads is causing a short of some kind. Are these new leads or existing ones? Regards, Ian

they are the new ones that came with the 3100's and the system has been working well until i put a DVD in.
just tried re-typing everything also.
really odd.
iin all my years selling Meridian i haven't come across this before.

What connection did you use, RS232 or USB-Serial? Are you using a laptop?

I would have suggested making the G91 the controller.
I forced the 861 to be controller and the system also had the G91 and DSP5200s and this worked very well.
