Vizio hdmi blacking out when displaying PS3 in 720p

When I play games on my PS3 on my Vizio in 720p the screen will intermittently flash black and then back to the game. This only happens with the PS3 and in 720P. I have tried 2 PS3's with the set. Both do the same. This does not happen with XBox in 720p. Both of the PS3's are the older "fat" models. I have tried the other HDMI ports and have switched HDMI cables as well. It's a minor annoyance but it is quite irritating.

This problem is actually called Ghosting.
Ghosting is what happens during high action scenes or during any scenes that have low light.
There's really no way to fix it other than getting a better tv. Vizio isn't really the greatest.
The video processor on the Vizio is unable to keep up with the input and it creates ghosting.

SOURCE: Changing from 480i to 720p on VIzio VX37 with factory issued remote

If you use the hdmi input from your cable box and select either the HDMI1 or HDMI2 input setting it should automatically change based on the channel transmission resolution.

All this is currently controlled by the cable providers set top boxes, and depends on whether you have purchse the Hi-Def programming packages.

Hope this helps you.

Hdmi not supported

I have a Vizio E320VL - just hooked up the HDMI for the first time (4 years later) to work with my new comcast HD DTA. I'm getting "retrieving data" (with really weird audio sounds in the background) - then "not support." If I wait a few minutes, I can change the channel and get clips of video/audio with some intermittent gray snow and black screen - The longer I leave the TV on, the better this gets until its almost running fine 30 mins later.

No picture when on for approx 15 minutes

It sounds like you are saying the "video looks scrambled but the audio keeps playing OK"

Normally this is a Video Processor Problem that requires a Board to be replaced.

When the problem happens, can you see the TV menu or the TV's On Screen Display clearly.

I suggest checking to see if the problem happens with the video inputs like, Composite(yellow/red/black), component(RGB/yellow and black), HDMI and S-video. If it happens to all inputs then you need to replace a board.

Screen is half picture and half black with vertical colored lines

I had the same issue. I could get the tv to work intermittantly by pressing on the boards while playing. This points to bad solder joint, so I resoldered every molex plug connector, and it nows works like a charm.
