image on tv goes green


I have a large Samsung DLP that has started to ocassionally flash to black outlines on a bright green screen. It looks almost like a solarized photograph. This occurs independent of source - both on DVD/blue-ray and on satellite TV.

This might occur once in five or ten hours and might last 5 to 20 seconds.

Any tech types out there have a guess as to what's going on here.

Thanks in advance.

When changing channels, the screen on my Pioneer sometimes goes to bright green. The sound is OK. At that point we have to turn it off and then back on. I asked Comcast about that and they said it's a fault of the HDMI connection with their cable box.
Noble100 & Mceljo: Ya… Comcast’s answer sounded pretty lame to me too… buy an expensive HDMI cable… pay Comcast $5.00 more a month to get an HD Box… and for your added viewing pleasure Comcast will turn your screen bright green to prompt your wife to once again blame you for complicating her life when she has to turn it off and turn it back on… turn it off and turn it back on… turn it off and turn it back on… turn it off and turn it back on
