hi all.....
Beginner here.. I've read thru all the thread..& unfortunately got lost..so straight to the point here. 1) When I browse thru the XMB ...suddenly it went blank..after few second it shows back..then..it went blank again for few second..& this keep repeating itself until I got fed up & shutdown the system...but.. 2) if I play BD..the above never happen..? 3) When I check the TV properties during BD playing..it shows 1080p + 24Hz..is this affecting the picture quality when I'm watching thru PS3? & not BD player? Anyone can help me or advise me on what to do? your kind assisatance appreciated.... |

having the same prob as econs here.. same TV model also
but if i use a non braided cheepoo cable, i can see the xmb in 1080p but its full of static interference (will post pic later) however changing down 720p or 1080i solves this. *note: using ps3 slim. |

There is another forumer who had this problem. Turns out it was due to the crapload of AV equipment he had nearby (interference). He bought a Monster Gamelink from DigitalTech and his problem left him |

yup most likely a problem with cable
some cheap hdmi cables (especially the long ones) cant carry 1080p signal properly |
