Screen Flickering?
« on: December 09, 2006, 03:58:00 PM »

For some reason, my screen has this wierd flickering whenever I use my Xbox 360. I am using the cables that came with my premium package.  One of my TV's has Composite and S-video, but I don't have S-video so I tried Composite and mostly the white areas on my TV seem to flicker, espeacially when playing MADDEN 07. I also tried the 360 on my upstairs TV which has Component. This seems to be better, but is still flickering while playing madden 07. I have already tried optimizing my displays with AVIO's Home Theatre Setup DVD and I also reset my 360 to it's default video settings. Does anyone know why it's doing this and how do I fix it? It's mostly the white and lighter areas, but sometimes all areas are flickering. Would I be better off just buying S-Video cables and trying that ( even though Component is better ) or should I try VGA cables and play on my 19" monitor ( which is no fun when I have a TV twice as big ). Please help. Thanks...

It's still happening, any ideas? Does this happen to anyone else? I have also noticed the white text on my tivo also flickers... Can anyone donate a new TV to me. I would prefer an LCD HDTV over 32", but I might settle for less... dry.gif
