Samsung LE32R7 Picture Flashing

I own a Samsung LE32R7 LCD TV and have a problem with 'picture flashing'. This only happens when I watch Sky television. Basically, the whole picture flashes from black/white back to colour for several seconds. I've noticed it only seems to happen when the programme I'm watching displays a red or blue image. Any solutions?

    Re flashing picture, I have this problem. My signal is via a Sky+ box (not HD). The problem seems more prevalent on BBC1 although not exclusively and I do not recall having a football match disturbed on Sky Sports.

I have a 37"Samsung LCD and having just spoken to the Sky engineer (also a friend) he says it is a national problem between Sky+ and Samsung. I have the same problem when on playback but not on real time? If you had your box changed to an Amstrad what sort did you have the problem with?

I have the same problem. Do you know what type of box I would need to change to?

    My problem has been fixed at long last. Get your box changed. My box was changed to an Amtrad and there has been no flashing picture since then.

You need to get your sky box changed! just ring them up and tell them your problem. the TV is a known issue with certain boxes.

Samsung le32r7 tv picture light levels v low

Reverts eventually means there is some looseness some where. Please check connectors and cables between power supply- TCON, TCON- Panel and main board-TCON. If you cant do it show it to some qualified technician.

Samsung le40f71bx picture flickers on and off with hd source

I've had similar for a long time, now the picture only lasts a few minutes or seconds. Have to turn the TV off, wait 5 minutes, turn it back on. That's with Sky HD. Used to be the same with SCART but I don't use that any more, and I get it with the Wii on Component. However HD DVD and Blu Ray players are no problem!

See my post here - http://www.avforums.com/forums/lcd-led-lcd-tvs/1622157-samsung-f71-flashing-pattern-fault.html

Way out of warranty but really just need some repair expert to tell me what needs fixing. Taking the cover off there are very few components and look easy to replace, and seen some on ebay. A fix from Samsung would be vastly in excess of the value of the TV.

Samsung LE32R7 Picture come on then goes straigt off

Fault at its main digital board. Short circuited component/s at it. Contact any service technician; or the authorized service center. If you wish to get some details; check the site linked here. Pull up older posts.

In most cases, the main board might have to be replaced. If so, a software [firmware] update too might be necessary.

Samsung 650 lcd 40" tv picture blacks out for a few seconds.

Dude, better check your cable and also your TV's power management settings. This might also happen due a issue with the HDMI output of the satellite box.

Picture Flashing

I have a similar problem but my picture flashes black and white and the sound goes at the same. Also sometimes it will flash pink and blue. I've read elsewhere that the issue is a known problem with compatability between Samsung tv's and sky boxes. Apparently the box needs to be replaced but I'm unsure what type of box. I've read perhaps a PACE sky box could fix the problem. I think the best option would be to contact Samsung - that's what I'm going to do.
