Hey guys,

I have a samsung 46" LCD tv sitting on my wall and it has a problem. Its will play regular TV and cable fairly well, its not HD cable (I know.. im cheating it by not getting HD cable) but I hook my PS3 up to it for games and blu-ray movies. When I play the movies it seems that it will cut off on its own and then cut back on again within 3-5 seconds. It only happens on certain films, certain games like Metal Gear Solid 4, and this Mahler 7 and 8 dvd with the Vienna Phil playing it. It will just cut off rapidly and not stop doing it until I either cut the PS3 off or the TV itself.

I checked the power supply and ran it from a different outlet. It still did the same thing. I read a little bit about someone taking off their back cover to the tv and cleaning the fans, will that work? I dont want to open my TV, ceasing any warranty I have with it, I just want it to work properly. I am inclined to believe that it only does this when it is stressed and heating up, only on 1080p or hi-res images.

Model number: LN46A750R1F
Samsung 46inch TV.

HALP!!!
 
Hi; This is a known bug in some Samsung TVs and has been fixed with a firmware update. See Samsung's website or the AVSForums for more.

Good Luck
