My Home theater in a box shows green dots when upscaling to 1080p via hdmi help?

jankee22 · 04-23-2009, 05:00 PM

Ok i have a 47 inch lcd from vizio (GV47LF) and it was working fine on all the inputs or ports i had used to the moment like rca(yellow), component , but after a year i bought a ps3 amd tried to connect it via hdmi . i wantes to use it as a blu ray player but when i did this and went to the hdmi source on the tv it was displaying a lot of tiny green dots and like every 3 seconds the screen goes fully black then the dots again. Soo.. i thought well maybe the cable i bought has problems . Then i bought 2 cable mores and the same problem. I realized maybe it was the system (ps3) but after that i told my self well lets try with other thing and i connected my home theater in a box which upscales to 1080p via hdmi and the same probelm soo i think and im pretty sure the problem is my tv. Can anyone help me with this problem?

Here are some pictures:

It probably is the PS3. You have to go into its menus and tell it to output via the hdmi port and (I think) what resolution you want (1920 x 1080)
