You may have failing 24vdc power supply or dying backlight inverter board, you need to check the 24vdc after the screen black out, or look at the sreen in the darkened room to see any glow from the screen, which in that case the problem can be in the T-CON or the main logic board.

Thomson flat panel tv has sound but no picture (comes on for about a second then goes blank)

if you can see if the screen lights from behind when the picture apears for a second then the problem is probably the invertor or worse the screen

My hannspree tv screen goes black blank

If the picture shows a picture briefly upon power up then goes off after a few seconds, you have a back light fault. It could have a problem in the 24vdc circuit, failing back light inverter board, or a blown CCFL lamp.

Screen goes black every few seconds but have a picture

Sony incorporates a video blanking circuit that blanks the picture out when the picture tube begins to get weak. sorry, but short of replacing the tube, there's no lasting solution to this problem. I used to have some success rejuvenating the crt, but I found that it didn't last but a few hours before the blanking circuit starts to activate again.
