My TV picture goes out (totally black) for about 7 seconds when I'm watching TV. It usually happens when I change channels, but sometimes it happens in the middle of watching a program. Video card is Nvidia GeForce 9500GS. I am using HDMI for both video and audio.
The audio continues when this happens. Also, if I rewind the program, I can watch the video -- so it's there.
The PC is acting like it's checking or changing the video resolution. I have Win7 MC and the video card resolution both set to native -- 1920x1080 @ 60hz. I have tried changing to several other resolutions (like 1280x720), but the same thing happens.
Do you think I need a new video card? Any recommendations for a card with HDMI video/audio? I do not have a blue ray player in the PC. What do you think of Radeon HD5750 or Asus HDAV1.3?
Your help is greatly appreciated.
