i also got my during the launch, no 13 in the line but my prob is differrent...

i get snow and flickering whenever i set it to run at 1080p, other resolutions is ok... first i thought is the cable, but even with a monster cable still same thing, can see the video here:


the weirdiest thing is that using my older ps3 phat, this problem does not occur no matter which cable i use, it works fine in 1080p

now only can run on 1080i and im like half hearted to get unchartered 2 since i can enjoy full hd gaming sad.gif

yupe.. been using 1080p on my older phat for almost 2 yrs now no problem...

another weird thing is using the slim to play bluray at 1080p, the flickering and snow goes away..

i thought uncharted 2 is running at 1080p?

anyway thinking of sending it back... but then have to backup everything and also de-activate all the accounts since who knows what sony will do with it and whether or not i will be receiving the same unit back... :/

Oh, I'm only using 720p so i cant give much help on that. Perhaps the firmware could help? I notice many ppl have problems with this snow/flickering thing.

will try to update the 3.10 which came out today but i doubt it will be of any help

So my guess is the PHAT still is better than the SLIM?  wink.gif

im beginning to think so too...

such as HDMI color range, and try to turn off Control over HDMI (unique in Slim)

colour range, set to both also no difference.. but where is this control over HDMI? u mean bravia sync? tried that too but no avail...

i think most probably i will chg and use component as some feedback saying in other forums that no issue there and it can go to 1080p as well...
