Flickering problem

[jcrt2000]

this might sound stupid but i had the same problem with my samsung tv and both my old sony reciever and my new yamaha one. i found the only way i could fix the problem was to get an hdmi 1.3 cable. i know it sounds odd but the ps3,tv,and reciever now get along just fine.

im prob. talking about something else but my screen flickers on some blu movies, seems like the grain just pulsates. i did notice on my friends 40" sony 3-lcd rear projection hdtv the grain doesnt show up as bad as it does on my lcd and there is no flickering....b/c the grain doesnt show up.....really thinking about selling my sony 40v2500 and getting a 50" or 65" sony rear projection hdtv. i use hdmi for both Audio and Video. is this what everyone is talking about or am i way off subject?

sony 40" lcd 40v2500 & ps3.

your problem sounds more Calibration related.

also search around for topics on film grain.

Mine however dosn't do it all the time, I can play a game or watch a movie and then a couple hours later is starts blinking like crazy. Again, it only occurs during transition into a game/movie.

Isn't this the handshake issue? (which i have no idea what that is). I thought that this was with certain TVs and both Sony and the TV manufactures were blaming each other about it.

I used to have the problem on my 1080i tv but with the Sharp it never happens.

Should have watched that before my previous post! Mine wasn't that bad though!

I thought there wasn't a difference between HDMI cables? How much are HDMI 1.3 cables and where can I get one? I'm using 2 HDMI cables from monoprice.com
