Sony STR-DG720 Receiver Thread

[MrTires]

I am having an issue with the receiver when using my PS3 to watch movies or play games. I have no issues with the receiver when watching tv (DirecTV).

My receiver will completely blank like it has lost signal (obviously cutting the video and sound) and will click back again. It is really quite intermittent and sporadic, but still annoying.

Obviously Sony DG720 support tells me the issue is with the PS3. I had no issues with the PS3 plugged directly into the TV, this all started after the addition of the receiver. I have tried my PS3 and my brothers, both which have the issue. I have a friend with a PS3 and this same receiver and has never had an issue. I have tried several HDMI cables, and tried to move ports on the receiver to no avail.

I am wondering if anyone has had the same issue, or would have any ideas of a setting or something that would cause the loss of sync between the two.

I have heard this issue more then once, I think it can be cleared up with a firmware update to the PS3. Perhaps someone with a PS3 and a 720 can enlighten you on this subject even more.

My PS3 is connected to the internet and I am running the newest firmware (3.15 I think).
