It sounds like your TV is either trying to switch resolutions or it interpreted the loading of the BD as no-signal and then went into screensaver mode or whatever. I used to have the same problem with my old TiVo box interpreting white as garbage signal.

if its trying to switch resolutions can that be fixed. my set is 1366x768. it accepts 1080i signal. would it be wise to set ps3 to output 720 only. if so will that give me a worse picture than what i got when a have ps3 set to output 1080i.

if its doin that bcuz it thinks the loading of the BD is no signal. then i guess thats what it is

Prime thanxs for ur input
