    Default Screen goes black once and while

    Hey guys have a quick question have a T5 with a loader ver:l 1.00.00 hardware ver : ht_V20 1.00.00 Application ver 1.02.00

    Every once and a while the screen goes black for 3-4 seconds then comes back my question is do you think this is a SW problem a over heating problem?
    And another question if it is a SW problem what is the most stable (BEST) to run on the T5?
    ANNNND one more if I upgrade the software will I have to re enter the server info as I will have to go look for that info as im on a new computer and the old one that I had all my info etc on has died

    I have a T5 that behaves the same way, but only on 1 of 3 tv's I have.It only does it on my panasonic, not on the 2 LG's.If possible, can you try it on another tv in your house?In my case, Tried all the ususal:module,power supply hdmi cable,different tv inputs,ect, but it was always the same on the Panasonic...2 second blackouts several times an hour.I think it's an hdmi handshake issue between the T5 & the Panasonic.Worth a try if you can.As per software, the 0106 is the latest & best.Use it.You won't lose your server data on the software upgrade, but you will if you install the factory bin.

    That's one of the Reasons I shy away from Panasonic & Sony Equipment, Both Company's tend to input
    their own signature/software into their Stuff, basically forcing you to use their equipment to be compatible
    with each Other etc.

    Cut'n paste:
    Where is CEC setting on Sharp Aquos TV?
    Press the Menu button on your Sharp TV remote. Select System Options. Select AQUOS Link Setup. Set AQUOS Link Control to On.
    ...
    HDMI CEC:
    Go to the settings menu. ...
    Select All Settings.
    Select General.
    Select SIMPLINK (HDMI-CEC).
    Set SIMPLINK (HDMI-CEC) toOn.
