This lamp has been working great on my Panasonic so far. I don't think it is the lamp causing this problem and it could be something else.

That doesnt have anything to do with the lamp. That sounds like it could possibly be the color wheel.

Try unplugging it for a couple of hours. Mine never froze just stopped working, I think there is an internal reset. Hopefully this will help you.

I have a Panasonic PT-50LC14. I have never had your problem and perhaps my experience will be of little help to you. I did have a notice every time I turned on the TV that the bulb was weak. I bought the replacement bulb TY-LA1000 with Housing from Amazon for $45 including tax. I installed it very easily and my TV works just fine.

I can help you. Bought the 1500 back in June. Worked great until the Bond movies came out. Bought FYEO and it wouldn't play. Got the new 2.0 firmware update from Samsung. Installed that with no problems. But after the update I couldn't play ANY blu movie. Sent the machine to Samsung to get fixed. Said they would have a new firmware update to resolve the problem but couldn't tell me when that would take place. So I had lost patience (over 1 month w/out being able to play blu on 1500). I bought the bd35. Not one single problem. Played the Bond movie with no problems. Samsung released 2.1 firmware to resolve problems with 2.0 firmware. Didn't work. So the morale of my story is that Samsung customer service is HORRIBLE! Go with the Panasonic. You won't regret it.

I have had this TV since January and love it. No problems with anything. Panasonic has something called pixel orbiter that you can enable to help prevent burn in from fixed image items such as logos. This TV is without a doubt the best I have ever owned. Hope this helps.

My flip mino hd froze after shooting for 20 minutes today. By 'froze' I mean, it kept recording, but I couldn't get it to stop. I couldn't zoom in or out or turn it off... none of the buttons worked. I let it sit for a few minutes, then tried again, and I was able to shut it off. I turned it back on, and everything worked fine. I hope the problem doesn't occur again, but who knows.

My PT61LCX65 has just had its light engine / LCD panel set fail. 7 years of age on a Panasonic. 14K hours. Never would have used a extended on it. Devices like these either fail in 6 months or many years after the warranty period. Look at a warranty vs what the TV will be worth in a few years.

That's the camera's issue. They sometimes have technical difficulties like that, and they will repair themselves most of the time if you turn it off and let it sit for a little. If it doesn't fix itself try taking it into a camera store that knows about film cameras and they'll help ya!

Mine started to freeze and then kept on. At first I was able to hard reset, that stopped working then I tried I hit the outside reset (Pinhole button on the side), it didn't work. I only had it for two weeks. Snowy screen constantly. So I returned it.

I am also having this issue. Contacted amazon instant video customer service. They said they have been having this issue with panasonic blu ray's but I still don't have an answer on the fix. Now my blu ray won't connect to the internet at all.

Richard,Although I've heard of others that have had this problem, I haven't experienced it. This was discussed back in May and maybe June on certain forums and reviews. Maybe Panasonic addressed the problem when shipping units after that. In any case, it's not an issue with mine.

i have mine for almost a year now. the only problem i have had is it would freeze until the battery dies out

Hi, yes there is one issue. Once it got freeze when i was focusing in low light. No controls were responding including on-off switch. I had to remove battery to restart the camera. I am waiting for Ricoh to announce this as a known issue and release firmware update soon. Thanks.

After contacting Panasonic and my cable company, I have determined there is no ordinary solution to this problem. Panasonic could fix it with an option for a screen saver during broadcast. I assume a private technician might be able to solve, but that could void any warranty.

Old trick, try holding the power button down until the unit shuts itself off and back on, and goes through a whole reset. I had to do someting like this once. Not sure what caused it, but it took about 10 min to figure out something that would make the unit do a hard reset. Just read this on a Panasonic unit with the same problem. 1. turn off unit by holding down the POWER button for 10 seconds. 2. unplug the power cord and wait for one minute. 3. plug the cord back in and turn on the unit 4. when the dvd begins to play, press "EJECT". Worth a try. Kinda sounds like what I did.

No it freezes when you watch Netflix. Samsung is aware of the issue but cannot fix it.

I have a Viera TC-P65GT50 3D Plasma tv ( outstanding product in every way ) and I could never get the camera to work properly with it. Unfortunately Panasonic tech help was absolutely NO help. Tried many times. Returned to Amazon for full refund. Good luck if you decide to buy.
