Hi plasma owners....

I would just liek to ask if these is a normal case on your plasma TV's. I am currently using a panasonic pv8. I usually play games with it on an xbox 360. My problem is parang meron mga pixels on the tv na mga kumikislap. Para ba syang mga bituin. Is this normal po ba onn a plasma? Never experienced this on my LCD TV. Or it is just the settings? My setting is on standard only. Pls. help so that if it is not normal, i can claim warranty for it. TIA and more power to Pinoydvd...

it's not normal, those are dead pixels.....try to call your dealer and ask their warranty policy on dead pixels.

Actually.... Sa tv signal wala sya. Dun lang sya talaga nagaapear sa HD signal ng XBOX 360. Is this a sign of a dead pixel kaya?

Sparklies on a high definition picture are usually a cable issue.

Try another HDMI cable.

@ Waxx

Thanks for the quick reply...

Here is the connection

My Panasonic Plasma is connected to my XBOX 360 thru Component Cable. Resolution is on 720p. I tried switching to an HDMI then ganun pa rin. May sparkles pa rin...

Waxx · « **Reply #12 on:** Nov 03, 2009 at 10:35 PM »

can you post pics?

ang alam ko ps3 lang ang may sparkles e... but thats in the xmb when you apply the 3/3.01 update..

t3nity · « **Reply #13 on:** Nov 03, 2009 at 10:54 PM »

Sige po. I'lltry to post pics and identify yung game na kitang kita yung sparkles. Thanks..

Waxx · « **Reply #14 on:** Nov 03, 2009 at 11:23 PM »

t3nity · « **Reply #15 on:** Nov 04, 2009 at 07:02 PM »

Waxx · « **Reply #16 on:** Nov 04, 2009 at 07:15 PM »

try another hdmi cable... anong board ng 360 mo? jasper?

Carlo777 · « **Reply #17 on:** Nov 05, 2009 at 03:28 AM »

I have my X-box360 connected via Components on my Panny, and so far no sparkles of any sort. You can try this:

1)Locate the spot where you saw them sparkles
2)Switch off the 360 and close your lights (keep the plasma on), look at the same spot again. If you can see brightly lit dots in the same area, then you have "stuck" pixels.

By the way, my 360 is a first generation model, so it does not have those HDMI ports.

Thanks for the help guys....

i Actuallychange my connection to HDMI and ganun pa din. When i play forza meron pa ngang isang malaking pixel na parang rainbow colors. Almost 1/4th ng screen. Minsan kapag naglalaro ako ng forza alam nyo ba yung resolution ko parang tv signal ang itsura. Hindi sya hi-def. You know what i mean hi-def pa rin sya pero parang gumagaspang.

t3nity · « **Reply #19 on:** Nov 05, 2009 at 07:24 PM »

@ carlo

I don't see any of that po. Maybe there's a problem na siguro on my 360. I'll try another 360 siguro. Thanks...

I agree 100%. Could be a sign of the dreaded 3rl...

I've had my box since launch and so far I''ve been lucky

Yes. A dead pixel is usually just one color and does not change colors (kumikislap) like you described.

Waxx · « **Reply #24 on:** Nov 06, 2009 at 10:18 PM »

and it doesnt change location.. andun lang sya.. parang isang maliit na dot na wala sa kulay (out of color) na nasa isang spot lang forever....

t3nity · « **Reply #25 on:** Nov 06, 2009 at 11:50 PM »

So i guess its my 360 nearly dying. Too bad... Modern Warfare 2 is just around the corner next week.

ninjababez® · « **Reply #26 on:** Nov 07, 2009 at 12:02 AM »

try borrowing another 360 and cables, that way we can isolate the problem.

Waxx · « **Reply #27 on:** Nov 07, 2009 at 01:37 AM »

Sir t3nity --- I'm not a gamer, but I tried googling for you.

Possibly.

That's what they're saying on this discussion: http://forum.teamxbox.com/showthread.php?t=615728. One post says:

"Your xbox is crashing... Artifacts are typical of a gpu failure. I know several people who have had the same issue. Eventually your 360 is going to die."
