HR10-250 picture drops out with bright image

[jmcbrg]

Occasionally when a very bright image comes on, such as a white flash, the picture drops out completely for a second or so, as if some threshold has been reached. If I step through the section frame at a time, the correct image is there, but playing it back real time causes the same temporary loss of picture. Any thoughts???

We've never seen that. Could it be the TV?

I had the same problem with my Haitachi 46 inch rear projection--turns out to be the TV--no real fix--I usually select 720p if its a show with lots of white flashes.--I bet your flashing to black still hearing audio, then it comes up again.

Same thing happened when my 36" jvc went bad, and it was temporarily replaced with a 19" rca. When a bright flash would come up, the screen appeared scrambled for a second, and then would come back. I ran through it in slo-mo, and during the "scrambled" part, the screen would read "unusable signal". When we switched to a 52" rca, the problem went away. I think it's just related to the tv.
