"Green flashes" when source info changes

[woecarlson]

Hi all,

Not sure if this is the right category for this, but as I'm not sure if this is my display or receiver causing it I thought I'd go for this first.

This started when we picked up a Sony BR player a few weeks ago, and now that we have a HK AVR it is happening every time the we change the device and also when the source info (resolution, soundtrack, etc.) changes. Anyway, the screen goes black and there will be 1-3 flashes of green before the signal comes back on.

It seems "ok" to me...everything always comes back up and looks/sounds ok...I assume it's just a flashing while the HDMI connections are shaking hands and figuring out what's coming through...just thought I'd see if this sounds common or if it's something I should be concerned with.

Thanks!

I had issues with my DVR when I got my SC-05 with changing channels. It did the same thing, but I found out it was my DVR box, as I had to turn off Native and it elimiated the issue. Not sure if anything similar would be associated with your issue though, since yours involves your new player.
