HDMI output to TV is not clear and is very grainy (including camcorder menu options projected on tv). what could be causing this?

I always just pop out the memory card, slide it into my USB reader and open the files with Windows Media Player

Can't help you. I don't have an HDMI output on any of my PCs. I do have a media player with an HDMI out hooked up to this TV, and the picture expands properly on the screen...whether it be a letterbox video, or an older 4:3 TV ratio image.

I had the same issue with a Panasonic TV ST series, the TV kept saying that there is no signal every time the receiver changed the sound mode or something. it got fixed by setting the right label for the HDMI port being used. It wasn't set to "Receiver" and as soon as I changed it, the cut outs stopped.

I'm assuming you are using an HDMI cable carrying the video, if so try changing to another video input on your tv.

I had an overscan problem with this set as well with PC to HDMI and the soulution was using the VGA PC input. I know HDMI sounds like a better choice but in this case it is not. With the HDMI port I was only getting something like 1768 x 992 resolution and text was a TINY bit blurred. But with the VGA input I'm getting tne full 1920 x 1080 resolution with no overscan and the images it produces are clearer. Try for yourself!

Have similar issue, seems the hdmi out port is to blame, changed all the cables (several times) to no avail. This started after only 6 days, bought because of a relative small number of problems, only to encounter one myself. I have yet to find a fix and not willing at this time to have it repaired will prob send back for a replacement

Hi. I'm Sorry I don't know for sure on both questions. If you want a guess, I would say probably no hdmi output.

That's the point of the receiver. Route all videos inputs to the HDMI output. I suppose there will be no loss of signals, you need to configure the HDMI output to HD (1080P).

No, I do not have an exact idea of what could be wrong since I have not experienced it. However, Are you using RCA cabling or HDMI? I recommend HDMI. The problen could be bad RCA cabling.

I'm wondering if you just have a bad unit. Can you explain a bit more how the video and images are poor? As with your other problems:- your HDMI problem may be a cable problem. Try another cable.- Is your TV 1080p? Typically, the video device detects what the TV can handle and switches it automatically.- Check if your camcorder has a setting to lower wind noise. It is quite common to have wind noise unless you use a special mic (those furry kind that muffles wind noise, seen here:Canon 2591B002 DM-100 Directional Stereo Microphone for HF/HG Series Camcorders I'm wondering if you just have a bad unit.

Your right on the money!! Mine does the same thing and I hate it. I was also watching the NBA playoffs and noticed and then it happend when a commercial was on and now I notice it all the time. My 27 1080i LCDTV Olevia has way better quality in HD and SD. I was using HDMI then switched back to component cables. One thing that did help me though is that I turned off all the special settings like the enhancements and black levels to get a true picture, because the manufacture hikes up the settings to make the TV look better on display at the store than in your house which will look a lot different.

DSLR cameras and GoPros can be problematic with any video capture device or switcher due to sometimes non-standard HDMI outputs. With "camcorders", meaning the average consumer/prosumer Sony, Panasonic, Canon units, virtually all should put out a clean HDMI signal. Please note that *most* camcorders will output 1080i over HDMI, even if the camcorder is set to record 1080p24 or 30. This is done for compatibility with more displays. This means the ATEM would need to be set to 1080i mode in order to accept the camera input.

I would try a different HDMI port on the TV. Some tv ports are not equal to others in the earlier TVs. The message sounds like a TV issue.

Greetings, You have 3 options for video output: HDMI, DVI or VGA (VGA will require the use of a DVI-to-VGA adapter). Best regards, MITXPC

Thanks! That makes sense. I did get a message that said something about HDCP. Can you recommend any HDMI cables that are HDCP compatible? I was trying to avoid spending a ton of money on one, but maybe I just have to. I also read on avsforum about firmware updates, etc. I guess I'll try a new cable before contacting Samsung.

Black and white picture may mean you're outputting in the wrong format. Make sure you've set the switch to PAL or NTSC (depending on the HDMI source)
