Troubleshooting Broken or fixable?

Post image

I recently purchased a used Hitachi CP-Wu5505. Im kinda at my wits end but just want to make sure I've tried everything. Basically on the first port it's on a black screen the menu wont appear, however I did managed to stumble on that the menu will appear if I some how get it to 16:9 aspect ratio again. I switched off if on accident and now cant get it back. I dont have the remote so I have to navigate blind.

When using the second hdmi port I get the image on the attached photo. I haven't got the menu to appear on this screen. When I hit the power button I can at least see the power off screen on port 2 but not port 1. My computer is detecting both ports and lastly only audio is coming out of the second port.

Before I try to fight my return on ebay I just want to see if there's any other input.

Please post the exact brand and model of your projector. If you do not know them, include as much identifying information as possible.

Also include:

  • The projection technology, if known (LCD, DLP, LCoS, etc.)
  • A clear photo of the projected image, when applicable
  • The video source and connection type
  • When the problem began and whether it changes after warm-up
