White flashes during playback? Anyone else experience this?
947520
Shortly after setting up a new DV-980H I experienced similar flash "bands" of white noise. The first DVD I played appeared fine (it may have been played at 480p). The second DVD had the issue being played at 1080p. At first I thought it was a scratch on the DVD but the problem has occurred with other DVDs, including new DVDs. The white bands flash predominately on the bottom third of the screen and occasionally on the entire screen. The Oppo DV-980H is set to upconvert to 1080i for display on a Samsung LNT4665FX connected through HDMI with the Oppo supplied cable. The only other problem I have had so far is some jerking of the video while playing some portions of one DVD. This appears more attributable to the DVD but I expected the Oppo to do a better job of buffering and oversampling to prevent this from being seen. ** I raised the issue of the flashes of white in an e-mail to Oppo over the President's Day weekend. Their Support group contacted me later that day! They belive the issue is due to a marginal HDMI cable. Rerouting the cable appears to have helped.

Flashes once every 40 seconds. I don't even notice it in my bedroom, or anywhere else. (I have 6 installed)

Not at all in my experience. I can see it maybe interfering with flash but I haven't noticed anything like that either.

It does, yes it's noticeable. It only flashes when it's in discover mode I believe.

Yes I too have the 4 gig version and it does this as well. I have also found that allowing the player to get cold makes the white screen go away. For example, in winter I leave it in my car in the garage which probably gets to around 49 or so. When I get in it the display works like a charm. All in all though, this SUCKS.

I don't have that problem, but I was looking for a speed control on mine and can not find one. First thing to do is try another tape. It could be that the tape your trying to play back was recorded on a high speed, and therefore will only playback on the shoebox the speed that the shoebox plays at and for that reason you will hear a rapid speed playback. The tape could also be old and defected. If that fails to resolved your problem, then you will have to return it. I hope this is a help, and sorry I could not help you more.

The problem may be the application you are using to view that video. I have found the the free program "VLC" works well.

I am having issues also. WMP doesn't recognize the files, KMPlayer plays audio and video but they are out of sync (video is too slow), Quicktime plays audio and video but the video is "jerky" and not as smooth as it should be, VLC was only playing the audio. I'm running out of things to try. -_-

Not when watching TV or movies. When displaying solid white or color screens, I can see a slight bit of uniformity issues, but not during regular content. Also when I was playing a game on the PS4 and the TV was in Game Mode, I saw flashlighting/clouding during black loading screens, but not during gameplay. I guess Game Mode turns off the Local Dimming?

Yeah it happens to me too!! Can't narrow down what causes it. Monitor? Video card? My blackout screens happen randomly and lasts anywhere from 1sec to about 3-5 seconds

It does play some flash but some it doesn't.It seems to play the higher bitrate encodes

yes, I guess the only thing is that mine is malfunctioning when downloading from memory to the computer, it does it but there is no sound from videos, only if tplayed in the device itself but not when I downloaded into my comp. sometimes the focus is flurry for 2 seconds and then goes back to being ok.

No - the whole screen goes white and shows a "No signal" icon. Nothing audible.

Q: When playing back a video shot at 600fps or 240fps on my TV or Computer it appears wavy and faded out. What am I doing wrong?

Try turning "Deep Color Output" in the video settings to "Off". Seems to be working for me...

Sounds like you are connected with a component video cable and you either have the cable connected incorrectly or you are using a bad cable.

Hi, if you are seeing these symptoms for all the 3D videos or even on on other inputs (e.g. tv programmes, blu-ray disc), then it might be an issue on the TV. If in case that it only happens for a certain 3D videos, try to check on the 3D depth adjustment and 3D glasses brightness settings on the TV. -Ely
