Help...BD Problem - Blu-ray Forum

Go Blue · 01-08-2008, 04:23 PM

I have recently noticed a problem when watching BD's on my PS3 that I never noticed before. During BD playback, in everything but very dark scenes, the picture seems to flicker or flash. It is not extremely noticable, as my wife would never see it, but it is killing me. I have tested standard dvd's and cannot see it. I can only assume it has something to do with the BD drive in the PS3 and not the TV HDMI cables, or reciever.

Can anyone PLEASE help in any way?

Do you have it set to 1080/24p output? That may be the problem if it's turned on...try it with it off and see if that works

I heard of that problem when I found out that I have to force the 24p to get my TV to display it, so I have it turned off in the PS3 settings. It has to be something else. I am may try to place the PS3 horizontal, as it is vertical now, but I doubt that is the problem.

The horizontal/vertical position should not be an issue...maybe it's the brightness of your tv, try to play around with those settings. That's prob why you don't notice it in the dark scenes

If it was a brightness issue, why would the picture flicker or flash?

What are some of the titles for which you are experiencing this?
