TV and Fransat decoder issue
Solved
I bought a decoder (FUJIONKYO F8600HD) in April 2016. I connect it to my Schaub-Lorenz LD185-110DBU flat screen TV via an HDMI cable. It initially gives me a hyper-contrasted image with a greenish black and white and no sound.
I turn both the TV and the decoder off and on several times at the wall socket (after turning them off normally). It takes increasingly longer to get a correct image with sound (over an hour the last time!).
I brought it back to where I purchased it (Auchan) and it works fine there. I bought a new HDMI cable and a LNB head for the satellite dish, but it’s the same...
What do you advise?
If it didn't work at all, I would think there’s a problem with the TV (Schaub-Lorenz LD185-110DBU)? Or is there a function that doesn't activate immediately on the TV?
Thank you in advance.

Hello Andy,
Thank you for the very clear drawing you posted. I feel like I'm going to have a lot of work... It's true that I've always had difficulties dealing with all these wires! As soon as I have access to the TV again, I'll follow your advice and keep you updated.
When I say "multiple socket," I mean this:
It's plugged into a wall socket, and I've connected a spotlight, the Fransat satellite decoder, and the TV to it.
Thanks again.

Thank you for getting back to me. I reset the decoder, but indeed not the TV.
I'll make a note of that and will do it as soon as I have access again (it's in the countryside and I'm in Paris!).
Otherwise, there might be a problem with the F connectors. I "prepared" them myself, and it’s not that easy. Maybe the contacts are faulty...
What’s strange is that it works after a while, and when I leave the power strip on, it works. It’s when I turn off that power strip and turn it back on that nothing works correctly...
Thanks again.

And be careful, the slightest “hair” from the braid touching the copper core = guaranteed problems...
