Small dots all over screen

I've been enjoying my xbox360 on my new lcd 52 inch 1080p samsung. I then got dish installed. I use a monster hdmi cable from xbox to tv. Sev hrs after I got my dvr/dish network installed, my beautiful xbox picture while playing halo 3 and another other game using disc is grainy, with all these dots appearing all over the screen randomly. I wonder if it is some kind of interference from adjacent cables? But when my DISH DVR is off, still same problem. Do I need to return my xbox? It is 8 mths old. Thanks.

Did you change the HDMI cable? If so, you should check to ensure you have the cable installed so it is running the right direction. It may seem hard to believe but some HDMI cables only allow the signal to run in one direction.

1080p doesn't work on PS3 and LG 42 inches LH4000

You appear to be correct. HDMI Timing issue with PS3.

1. Try a different cable
2. Try a shorter cable
3. contact TV manufacturer and report it.

I am guessing this may be corrected by replacing the cable. HDMI cables use different gauge(Thickness) wires and different shielding, so with some inferior cables there may be noise. This will cause picture problems. Don't let name like "monster" fool you, you Must try a different cable. If this is a TV problem, I would guess 100% that the TV manufacturer is aware and already created a fix if so. PS3 is so popular as the choice Blu-ray player that it is tested will all products sold. Almost used as a baseline for correct operation with BluRay and HDMI devices.
