We ended up confirming the TV was a dud and was given a refund promptly from amazon then after amazon arranged for a replacement TV of the same make/model for the same price for us to purchase in which we did immediately and should be here later this month. Amazon made thing's great in the end like they alway's have for us. Thankyou Amazon.

Picked one of these up at best buy and it's definitely doing this. Doesn't happen through the blue-ray player, but the cable is a problem. Might just be a bad HDMI port, but with only two to start with, that's a problem for me. Probably going to take it back this week and purchase through amazon. Better price and similar service plan option for less money.

We've had the same issue. The TV (which we've had since January '08) had been doing that for 2-3 months. And, it's taken longer and longer to come on. It would make a clicking sound and the small red lights on the right side would go on and off alternately with the light on the "on" button at the base of the TV. Yesterday, it took more than 5 minutes to turn on. Then, today, it stuck in the clicking mode and wouldn't come on at all. We completely unplugged the TV and left it unplugged for several minutes--hoping that when we plugged it back in that it would be in the "off" mode. Instead, it's continued in its clicking mode for nearly an hour, now. Fortunately, we have the extended warranty. And, a repairman is coming here this Thursday to determine what's wrong.

I have experienced the same thing with my new Samsung LN52B630 TV. Do you guys think it's a TV problem or cable signal problem?

Thanks for your reply. It happens to us when we go from non HD to HD and from HD to HD. Very annoying. We've dropped back to using the component cables, but I sure would like to use the HDMI. I was hesitant about complaining to Samsung, since our cable is so sketchy, but now I think I will.

I had the same problem. Fixed it using this solution here: http://www.avsforum.com/forum/109-home-theater-box/1481206-help-samsung-ht-e5500-keeps-changing-source-2.html#post23923247

Unfortunately this is not a unique problem. My research shows many customers have had this happen to their Sony TV's, even after just a year or so. My TV lasted 18 months before this happened. Bloggers have documented that it can't be fixed, certainly not at a cost that is worthwhile. The only option is to recycle the TV and buy a new one...of a different brand with a more stellar reliability rating. Sorry.

Nope. Amazon has stepped up and I am returning this television. I am going to return the favor and buy a more expensive Samsung to replace it with Amazon.

I'm really interested in hearing what you found. We just got a new Samsung TV and it has the same problem.

I have the same problem too. I just bought this LED 55 in for 2 months and it is making horrible buzzing sound. With the backlight setting to 10, the sound is very obvious, and it will get louder as I watch TV longer, like more than 1 hour.I bought service warranty with Frys, the technician came in and tried to replace the power supply because he thought it was the problem. Turn out the problem was not caused by the power supply but the TV itself he said.I just opened a ticket against Samsung, the Engineer will come over next week to take a look.

We recommend you turn the Motion Smoother feature of the TV off. Instructions can be located in the below link. Http://service.us.panasonic.com/OPERMANPDF/E-HELP_ZT60.PDF#page=165

Nope never noticed any thing like that. Check your TV settings, in the burn in protection settings there is a setting called pixel shift, its turned on by default it moves the picture a small amount every couple of minuets to protect from burn in's. I suppose your settings could be off the default settings are pixel shift: on, Horizontal: 4, vertical: 4, time: 4 min. This probably your problem you could try turning it off at your own risk as you may have a higher chance of burn in's and most likely image retention. You payed good money though if that doesn't fix it return it! Samsung is know for problematic plasma tv's. I wish you the best! Nope never noticed any thing like that.

I've had mine for almost six months and it happened couple of times. I've noticed that it never happens when I watch a DVD or Blu-Ray disk, or when I am streaming something either from Internet or my media server. It only happened when I was watching cable using my Comcast digital cable box. When it happens it goes black and comes quickly right back. Before it comes back it shows for a split second a sign that it is establishing HDMI connection. I was wondering if it has something to do with the cable box, but it is so rare that it is difficult to identify a pattern.

I have the same issue with my two-week old 42B450, as well. The plastic bezel makes faint crackling noises as the unit warms up (lasts for about 30 minutes). It is definitely the plastic bezel since I can duplicate the sound by pressing the bezel along the top edge of the TV. Another Amazon post said that they had the same issue and so they returned the TV for replacement and the second one did not make the sounds. Am curious if the Samsung rep mentioned above actually has a fix for the problem.Except for this issue, the TV is excellent in every way.

I haven't had any problems myself. Has your TV been updated to the latest firmware?

You have a part going out on it, I had the exact same problem and it was more to get it fixed than it was to buy a new tv. I don't remember what the part was but it was expensive. Mine started doing that right after the warranty ended, and they won't fix it for free. Good luck with it. And I would stay away from their products in the future
