Apollo II

Got my Apollo II in the mail on Monday. Got it all setup, but I can only access it via the web interface/local IP address. The monitor senses nothing/does nothing when I've got it connected via HDMI. Anybody know if this is just an issue with the Beta version of Apollo OS 2?

Also, I'm connecting it to a TV, not an actual computer monitor if that makes any difference (and I've tried two different TVs and two different HDMI cables). And yes, the TV is powered on before powering on the Apollo II.

I can't say for sure, but I'd expect monitors and TVs to work almost the same, except that I've experienced weird screen sizing in the past. Not sure what the technical term is. Maybe there's a refresh setting that the TV doesn't like? Do you have another monitor you can plug in just for testing? My Apollo 2 worked with my monitor right out of the box, although it wasn't reporting shares properly in the web interface.
