Hi the optical led or toshlink connecter is no longer is lit up, did it fail or is it a firmware/setting issue, does anyone else have this issue and know a fix or solution?
thanks

I will throw out a guess since there are no pics/model# or if this event happened naturally or from an attempted mod/flashing.

If your China Box is still working and you use the TOSLINK connection, you may have a damage solder point.
It would be cheaper to return you box(under warranty) than to pay for fixing it (USA/CAN- $20 bench fee + repairs).

Without a warranty, pop it open and check the PCB location. Then make a plan to fix or toss.
