Have you checked the output type (pal vs ntsc). If you live in the usa you should make sure the switch is set to ntsc. The switch is in the battery section on the main unit.

Yes, I am having the same issue with my same model television. Mine was purchased the end of 2/08, it started doing that about a month ago and it is out of warranty. Have you had your repaired? If so, what was the cost? wants $150 just to come out and diagnose the problem.

I have had similar issues and thought it might have ben the monitor itself... the problem is that the HDMI cable was moving ever so slightly as we manipulated our rig and the weight of the HDMI cable itself helped it to wiggle out just a little bit and lose connection. Nothing a little gaffer tape couldn't fix. After figuring out what was going on we have yet to see it lose signal again.Hope This helps!

This isn't caused by the monitor, it is caused by video drivers.I have an ATI card that did the same thing to it. Updating to the latest Catalyst drivers and setting the overdrive to 0% got rid of the letterboxing over HDMI. Everything looks awesome now!

Don't recall seeing a similar display, but other reviewers seeing odd displays suggested hitting "reset" with a paper clip.

I have only noticed a minor motion 'jerkiness' on a couple of TV shows, but I attribute it to my satellite receiver, otherwise Sports in HD and DVD viewing are phenomenal! I will look into the owners manual, to see if I can find anything. You say it is intermittent...for all viewing or on certain shows? Also, are you viewing via cable or satellite?

Thanks very much for the info. I lucked out, since my equipment is to the right of the TV and I can't move it to the other side.

If it's like mine, I start on HDMI when I power it up, it switches on its own to TV, then I have to press HDMI, so it sounds like a similar problem.

I did not experience this. Did you set up the correct version for the display port driver in the monitor menu? Some computers , etc. do not support th latest versions that comes default with this monitor. Hope this helps.

Try switching different HDMI cables. if not then try switching HDMI ports on the TV.

Nope never noticed any thing like that. Check your TV settings, in the burn in protection settings there is a setting called pixel shift, its turned on by default it moves the picture a small amount every couple of minuets to protect from burn in's. I suppose your settings could be off the default settings are pixel shift: on, Horizontal: 4, vertical: 4, time: 4 min. This probably your problem you could try turning it off at your own risk as you may have a higher chance of burn in's and most likely image retention. You payed good money though if that doesn't fix it return it! Samsung is know for problematic plasma tv's. I wish you the best! Nope never noticed any thing like that.

I had this problem at first but then I realized that was actually a issue with my tv. Switching source fixes the problem.

I have not seen that happening on my tv, does it happens while watching different video sources, (BD, Video Games, regular t.v cable or satellite) or only in one of these? if it happens no matter the video source it may be the t.v. if its only on specific ones you could try to change cable connections or the problem could be on the video source.

I had the same problem. It turns out there is a micro switch which tells the TV if the lamp housing is seated properly. Over time the micorswitch develops "slack" . Once you figure out where the micro switch is you can fix it by simply putting small peices of electrical tape on the lamp housing in the correct location. If you do a Google Search of the TV model and blinking 6 times; you'll find lots of articles to help you locate that switch. Apparently it's a common problem.

There's a feature that allows you to change motion smoothening. You'll have to consult the manual, but I do remember having this issue early on. This is common on HDTV's
