Black screen when watching blu rays - Page 2 - Blu-ray Forum

Yes, that to me makes sense since the TV receives a signal and send a signal now and then from and to my amp. That would explain the short blackout. Anyways. I havent tested any other movies yet. But will report back what ever I find.

I couldn't believe there was something wrong with my lens or drive because it was only happening with the one film (which happened to be "Safe" by Boaz Yakin - good film btw). All my other discs were fine.
It turned out there is one setting on the ps3 which was causing the failure to play properly. It would play the initial copyright notice then go to black screen and loose all signal.
On the PS3 main page, go to Settings>DisplaySettings>VideoOutputSettings>HDMI> Custom> then make sure everything is switched on, 576p, 720p, 1080i and 1080p. It was the 1080p one that was causing my problems. Now I can play it fine and I'm a happy man.

Hope this helps some of you out
