Hello, Yes there is. You have to go to the menu and go to the HDMI settings. There is a pass through option. I am not sitting in front of my equipment right now so I am going by memory but you will see it. Let me know if you need anymore help.

Report this to Amazon. If you have not had the tv very long, make sure you don't let the first 30 days run out without replacing it. Amazon is amazing about replacement. My son's LG 4600 went totally out after using it just two weeks. Turned itself off and never came back on. He had a brand new replacement within 4 days.

You've probably gotten yours fixed or resolved the issue by now, but I have the version of this TV with built in DVD player and recently mine started doing the same thing. The TV would turn on and try to load a DVD and just come back with no disc... no disc... no disc.. I contacted Toshiba and they said leave it off/unplugged for 3 minutes. That didn't end up working. I searched through the menu's for a system reset or restore defaults and found one under Setup > Installation > System Status/System Information. Switch to the next menu and follow instructions when it asks for the code.I did this and it seems to have fixed the issue so far (been 48hrs and it hasn't turned on on its own).

Yes I have. I use mines everyday it has happened to me before but only twice and of that happens you just unplug the whole thing and turn off the tv as well for 10 mins. It could be that you don't have good wifi service.

I also just got this tv & am having the same issue. It's very distracting & is driving me crazy! Im actually considering sending it back & going back to my sony sxrd. Any help would be much appreciated because i do love the color depth on this tv & hate to get rid of it.

Unplug it, wait a minute or two and plug it back in. I had this problem as well and it was happening a lot, so I returned my tv for a LG...great move, no problems since.

I have never reset my tv but the apps on the TV suck. My Hulu app barely plays. I called samsung about the issue and tech support really couldn't help. So I don't use any of apps on the TV; I have an apple tv. I suggest you do something like that if you can't get the apps to work. The tv is still really awesome...the picture is amazing!

Right out of the box my tv had this problem. I have had it for 3 months and it has buzzed for approximately 5 seconds(until picture becomes visible) every time I turn it on. At first I thought I would be able to deal with it but the more I read about failures down the road, the more I think I am going to return it.

I also called Samsung & they referred me to a local company. They want $90 just to come out but since we can't afford to fix it right now, we have been waiting. I have read a lot of people having this issue but samsung denied it. It's a shame that a fairly new tv is having such problems. I guess that they don't make them like they use to! Let me know if you get a tech out there & the outcome. I know mine will have to wait, no job, no money.

Man Vince, that sucks, I really feel bad for you having to go through all the stuff you have. Even with the repair the screen is faulty. I would see if you can still return it to Amazon and get an exchange. I currently own a Sony 40" 720p/1080i set I got in Nov of 2006 and Ive been thinking of upgrading to the Samsung 4071, but all the crap youve gone through scares me. I dont know what I would do if I spent that much on a TV only for it work partially.

Hey Oleg, I was just wondering if you might give me/us an update on the TV. I'm about to pull the trigger on the same model/size as the one you bought and just wanted to know how satisfied you are with your purchase. Also was wondering how well the 3D works, if you would be so kind. Thank You!

Have they resolved this issue yet? I am thinking about buying this TV, and would like to know if they resolved this issue.
