Sounds like that's the cable box. My bf's box goes out all the time. The cable company should swap it out free of charge.

The problem probably isn't with the T V. I would ask for a replacement for the HD cable box. If you have cable, they will most likely charge you for the switch, Dish does not. I like the T V, but the sound quality sucks. I could add a inexpensive sound bar, but I only use it for awhile, at night, as a bedroom set. Good luck.

Could be the cable, or the connection between the cable and the set or cable box also. I'd try giggling the cable first and next replacing the HDMI cable or swapping to a composite cable bundle.

I have no problems like the ones you are experiencing. If you are using your cable remote, you need to program the remote with your TV code. That allows the cable remote to change the volume and mute the volume on the TV. Othewise you need to use your TV remote to do these functions. I have FIOS and the code is 210. Call your cable company to verify and have them walk you through the process. It is easy. All my front panel controls work except up and down channels. This is because the TV is hooked into cable and the TV itself needs to stay on channel 3. I hope this answers your questions. I have no problems like the ones you are experiencing.

It changes port channels with and without remote and I have moved the HDMI to different ports with the same results also when changing it takes a few seconds before the signal is sent to the TV. I have reinstalled a 2x1 and the TV is responding OK and has not shut off anymore. I have just for the fun of it placed it on another TV different model and the same thing occurs I loose the signal to the set.

Are you hoked up to cable? Sometimes the settings on the cable box itself can mess with the TV output also. Not sure if that's the problem but it's definitely worth checking out. the only time I've had that kind of problem was when connecting the PC to the TV via HDMI.. but that was the graphics card settings, not the Panny.

Can you not get the HD channels on the cablecard because they are on high-number channels? I am worried about that too, since our HD channels are all up near 290 - 320, and the TV specs say it can get CATV channels from 1 - 125 only. I am about to give up on trying to find a cablecard TV. I may go ahead and rent an HD box (and keep the regular digital box attached to my Dual TiVo).

I have experienced the same thing with my new Samsung LN52B630 TV. Do you guys think it's a TV problem or cable signal problem?

are you sure that the cable box is HD? kinda sounds like it is SD? the other thing to remember is that not all stations are being broadcast in HD and even then some local channels might not be broadcasting certain shows in HD. for example, my local stations might broadcast a golf game that is in HD, but the local news is broadcast in SD. As for the tv itself, i'm not sure. I'm waiting to get my 4053 delivered and i'm having a hard time waiting! you might want to check your connections again though.

Yes, I took the HDMI cable back to BB and bought component cables. No issues now on turning both the TV and Uverse DVR on at the same time. Talked with Uverse, it's software issue that will be cleared up in future.

I gave up on mine, got tired of rebooting the unit, so Directv sent a tech out to my home and it kept dropping the signal for him too. So the tech hard-wired a small box into the system running off my router and I now have internet to every tv in the house.

I know my cable box sometimes takes a long time to boot and get the channel guide if I leave it off for an extended period of time. Perhaps the satellite box could be the same.I've never put a meter on mine to see how much it draws constantly though to know if shutting it off every time versus leaving it on constantly is beneficial.

Is your tv HD? With out this converter you are not able to receive all HD Channels from directv check the back of your cable box if you have one then you do need it

What sources do you have it connected to (cable box, blu ray player, av receiver, etc)? Does this occur on each source? Has this occured starting when you first used the tv or is it new? Without knowing any other details ensure your cables (likely hdmi) are secured on both ends.

I have not noticed any. We use one switch for local channels in HD, and the other switch for a DAY box to hook to cable. Both come in perfectly clearly.

Depends on how strong of a signal you receive. I split the signal to 3 TV's with no issues. The box has only one Coax output but you can by a splitter to distribute to multiple TV's.

I seem to remember there being an adjustment for syncing.. The thing worked very well for me hooking up a base model comcast cable box. At one point I had an out of sync problem, but rebooting this box fixed it.. Never had it happen since.

I have not had any trouble losing signals on the 50' cable. I did have problems with a "cheap" hdmi splitter that I returned to Walmart and then purchasedanother from Best Buys for around $ 85.00. I do notice that when the bonus room tv is on and I turn on the kitchen tv, the bonus room goes out for a second, but comes back on.

unsure but issue sounds like a problem with your cable provider if its only affecting certain channels.
