My system has worked perfectly until now. Even when i don't put in a disc or usb after 10 seconds the screen goes fuzzy, if i change the channel to HDMI 2 then wait then put it back to HDMI 1 it comes back to normal then goes fuzzy after the same period of time. When you play a dvd by repeatedly changing channels when it gets to the menu screen of the film a blue box appears and says The content cannot be displayed as the device connected is non-HDCP compliant, Please Help
Hi Joey,
This is the my second HTS6510. I sent the first one back in August as it would not play the disc nor eject it and I'd only just got it. The replacement has worked well until recently when virtually the same problem you are experiencing happened to mine without "the contents cannot be displayed" bit. It corrected itself but did the same thing tonight and this time it sometimes displays the "content cannot be displayed" bit. I think it is the HDMI out connection that is at fault. Could be that it cannot cope with the sound, but I'm a long way from knowing how these things work. If you come back on site and know the answer please share it with me. I will be getting onto the seller in the morning as it's still under manufacturers warranty.
Cheers.
Hi Joey,
That's good to hear! This morning, I was about to call the seller and decided to have another try. Same thing happened, the blue screen and "no disc" came on and then the screen turned to fuzz. I left the player on and never touched the stand-by button which always removes the white light and puts the machine, as it should, into standby. Instead I used the tv remote and turned off the tv, at the same time it caused the player to go into standby. I then turned on the tv again, pressed the on button of the player, did the usual with the AV on the tv's remote and Bob's your uncle the screen displayed the usual blue screenl and never went into fuzz-mode. I inserted a dvd and it's back in business. Glad I never called the seller as a visit from the repair man, here in the UK, would have been costly if it was just a matter of using the controls properly. Anyway glad we are sorted. Have a Happy Christmas and don't watch too many movies, your eyes will go square. Actually the HTS6510, for the money £240.00 (or $480) is quite a delight to watch movies on but I might get myself something a bit more pricey next time.
Cheers,

Your problem is a product of HDMI technology, not the player itself. When HDMI cables are plugged into powered equipment, any loose dust can be attracted to the cord or port (like during the initially plug-in or during trouble shooting). This causes interruptions in video and audio. The dust can even interrupt signal entirely, which might cause a 'no signal' warning or a 'Not HD compliant' signal.
To resolve this issue, unplug TV and DVD player. Then, unplug the HDMI cable to both, wait ten seconds. Replug HDMI, wait ten seconds. Unplug HDMI, wait ten seconds. Replug HDMI, wait ten seconds. Then plug the power in to the TV and DVD player again. It should work. This troubleshooting technique is called 'hot plugging.' Almost any upconverting DVD player might require it.

What is HDCP?
HDCP
stands for High-Bandwidth Digital Content Protection, a copy
protection scheme to eliminate the possibility of intercepting
digital data midstream between the source to the display. The
format designed by Intel and licensed by Digital Content
Protection, LLC using an authentication and key exchange procedure
before video and audio is presented. Products compatible
with the HDCP scheme such as DVD players, satellite and cable HDTV
set-top-boxes, as well as few entertainment PCs requires a secure
connection to a compliant display, the process often described as
the handshake. Due to the increase in manufacturers
employing HDCP in their equipment, it is highly recommended that
any HDTV you purchase is compatible. Although most video
devices support high-definition video over component output,
analog connections are scheduled to phase out in the future or
possibly forced to limited resolutions output.
Why
is it important to me?
Although
manufacturers are still making most products with at least
component HD output, new generation of products like HD-DVD and
Blu-Ray devices will limit the analog output resolution (Analog
defined as Component or RGBHV). The highest resolutions
these devices can output (720p/1080i/1080p) will be available on
via the digital (DVI or HDMI) connections that employ HDCP
encryption. Any new HDTV purchase should have a digital HDCP
compatible input.
It
is important to note that HDCP is currently not a standard used in
PC monitors, and almost none of these displays have Component
inputs. Although PC monitors are HDTV capable, HDCP
encryption limits this type of use. If you use an HTPC and
want to ensure dual use of your new flat panel display, look for
HDCP compatibility.
How
does it work?
A
simple answer is that an HDCP session will result in the exchange
of keys between the source and display device. The source
device will query the display to make sure that the equipment is
HDCP compliant before video is shown. Non-HDCP devices such
as PC's and older model DVI products will work with any DVI
compliant display, but the HDCP compliant boxes will show an image
only on HDCP compliant display.
Other
products affected by HDCP are scalers, switchers, and splitters
(distribution amps). While
these devices do no authentication for key exchange, they must be
able to transmit the presence of HDCP if the video is handled
(processed) in any way. Due to the two different formats of
digital connections, occasional inability for proper
communications may result in loss of interoperability. The
newer format, HDMI was designed to be backwards compatible with
DVI and in most instances, the two signal types are easily
adaptable, but older devices may not always work well with in-line
devices like scalers or switchers. These problems can
sometimes be fixed in "firmware' although that is not always
the case. Incompatibility is often displays on-screen as a
snowy image or an error message.
Hope this explains it for you.

My system seems works fine now after a little play around with the cables i switched it off then unplugged and changed the HDMI cable and its worked fine so it must be the cable. Try this and it should work Captain !
