Samsung HL-T4675W strobing

[mmoaks]

Past two nights I've been getting an intermittent strobing pattern while watching. Very apparent when I'm on the plain blue screen when there's no input. Any guess as to whether it's a lamp issue or color wheel issue? Thanks in advance.

well...


The only thing that i can think about, is that it could be that you have a false contact.
It could be the cables....but most probably with the digital/analog board.

If you have this with the HDMI input...it could be probable that is not working properly, HDMI is great but is very very sensible.

hope this can help you out...It will be a lot of help if you can post a video or pictures.

Does this happen with all the inputs?

It seems like you have a false contact in a board or a cable...

The lamp is working fine since you have a picture, also the color wheel couldn't be the problem since you have a good image. Usually when the color wheel fails the TV turns off.

Hope this helps.

Thanks guys, it is apparent on all inputs, though more apparent on the both the HD inputs (HDMI and regular HD component). Though when I cycle through the inputs that seems to temporarily make it normal for a minute or two. Then it goes back to "pulsing/strobing."

Just to discard some problems, once the strobing problem appears display the TV menu, is this affected?
