    @hughes1011 Thank you

  2. hughes1011 says:

    @wwefanvladislav thats just the way the game itself is. this roughness is called aliasing

    the problem is with the HDMI cable itself

    The problem is your TV. It is changing resolutions to suit the game. For instance, not all games support full 1080p. Most of the PS3 games I own will only go to 720p. If you have your PS3 setup to display 1080p (menu, videos, etc) it will force the TV to readjust the resolution when a game loads. (because the game is only set at 720p for example) this causes the TV to reset and flicker to the new resolution. Also, when exiting the game back to 1080p for the menu. It’s supposed to do this.

    The other thing you can try is that you can take your HDMI out in 5 seconds and put it in when you are loading the game.

    Same as my prosjector, turn auto search of on your LCD ;)

    No one knows the answer. It’s or the tv or the ps3 or both. I’ve got the same problem. It worked for months on 1080p on my samsung tv. Now it won’t since I swapped hdmi cable to pcmonitor and back to tv. No signal all the time, even when I reset it. But tv works great on other devices with hdmi and 1080p. Even Sony and Samsung don’t know the answer, which I don’t believe… Endless threads on the internet with ZERO solutions. At least you have picture :)

  16. merijnwitje says:

    it might also possible that youre connection hves to be replaced, mybe the cable is just damaged or the wires in the cables in the wire might hit together

  17. merijnwitje says:

    which connection do you use AV or HDMI? if you have AV cables you have to go to AV and if you have Hdmi you must to the source HDMI

  18. jesserobins says:

    umm budd your tv or ps3 isnt the problem its serching for signal because the ps3 or xbox cuts out momentarily because nothing is being broadcasted it happens on a slew of tv’s that are digtaly connected

  19. Royaniime says:

  20. chrisfur2 says:

    its always the tv’s fault. the ps3 has no idea whats going on. so it will keep playing.
