I have a color flickering problem with my Toshiba DLP 46hm95. It flickers images to different colors. However this only happens in both HDMI ports. there is no flicker through antenna, colorstream HD, or from the dvd player. I ruled out the HDMI cable, as it worked fine for my other tv. Can I rule out the color wheel being the isssue, since it works in the other ports? I have noted a slight dimming recently....will a bulb ready to go out cause this color flicker? The only other option i see is the hdmi from the hd cable box, but I doubt it would be the problem. I wanted to ask the other questions before i go through the hassle of disconnecting cable boxes and checking them.

This is a wild guess, but I believe that you are being **** by the movie industry. The HDMI protocol includes a form of DRM (Digital Rights Management) for high resolution content called: High Bandwidth Digital Content Protection Basically this means that the media (disk or broadcast) instructs the player (in your case the cable box) to insist that any downstream devices (your TV) is industry and DRM compliant. Specifically this evil protection scheme is designed to plug the analog hole and make it impossible for you to record or copy the movie by using an analog output from your TV. This even restricts the size of the TV you can play the movie on, thus preventing pubs and bars from displaying the content on big screen TVs without paying royalties. The message means that the manufacturer of your TV has refused to toe the industry line. 1984 Anyone ? Martin

If your having pixelation,try disconnecting other tvs
from the wall.you may have a noise or DB drop off or surge issues.check all splitters from the tube to the soffit of your home.If you find one upside down out side ,water maybe be getting in.Remove all snap adapaptors,screw on only.Splltters are
cheap,,easy way is spend $3 extra a month to have your cable Co repair or replace any seeping cables or adaptors and/or splitters.
