Hi. The problem I have is that the picture comes on and then goes off- on and off, on and then off. It's hooked up to an hdtv cable box. Any ideas?

I beleive you have to enable audio in the HDMI SETUP so it will send the digital audio through HDMI ports, check the cable box and the TV HDMI sound setup.

use the RCA ( yellow, red& white) cables, put on video input

try the lead in another slot and even another lead, if problem persists demand an engineer comes out.

I have the same problem

That is a convergence problem, it may be because of a faulty defective IC.

Yes, the firmware on your hdtv box has an old firmware, I switched my old hdtv box with a newer one box and the problem was solved. It seems that it can't work if your hooking up with DVI to HDMI cable to your receiver to tv. Your hd box must have an HDMI out otherwise it causes problems. I also have rx-v661 and i finally hooked up everything HDMI to the receiver and then to the tv and it was having the problem you speak of. After I switched out the hd box for a newer one everthing worked fine.

The captions are turned on in the cable box itself. If you have a Motorola cable box, turn it off then hit the menu button for the cable box. You will then see where you can turn off the closed captioning. Anymore questions email me [email protected]

My hdtv component jacks will give a clear pic then pop back and forth into double images. Can anyone help?

I have a 53inch philips that is showing pictre but showing green, red as shadows..
