Looks like my best score yet.
Good news mate. Your temporary fix/workaround worked! The STB is now responding very quickly to the remote commands while the TV is on and seeing the OSD.
Thanks, this should be stickied somewhere
So you're saying that the TV manufacturer has to issue a fixed firmware to solve this problem permanently?
I did some Googling last night, and found several people with the same issue, and replacing the box didn't solve it for them. They also used HDMI. Some even tried component instead of HDMI, and it was the same result.
