Not 100% sure if this is the right section for this, but i'll give it a shot.

I own a Westinghouse 32W6 LCD and I love it and have never had problems with it until recently when I got rid of my old xbox 360 for one with HDMI. Until then, I had it hooked up via VGA and it worked fine. Now, when I hook it up with the HDMI, I get this:

And like I posted on youtube, here's more on the situation:

"Here are the facts:
Using a Westinghouse 32W6 and an Xbox 360 via HDMI. Video displays white/green flickering lines that pop up. They tend to pop up less when set to 720p as opposed to 1080i, but still pop up every now and then.

Cables: I've tried two different cables. One, a cheap straight up HDMI cable from monoprice.com. The second, a cheap HDMI to DVI with a DVI to HDMI adapter from ebay. Both have the line problem.

I use the HDMI to DVI cable to hook up my computer and don't see any of those lines.

I can't test the 360 out on another tv because I don't have one, nor do I know anyone who has one with HDMI.

Can't test about other HDMI sources on the TV because I don't have anything else that uses HDMI."


So basically, i'm looking for any idea on what might be causing the lines.

Ok, maybe somebody can post a link to a forum who might be able to give an answer?
