Title: blank screen
Post by: stryder on Jan 14, 2019 at 04:16 PM

hi ..  got this set-up in place: 
lg 4k bd player(hdmi out)>samsung soundbar(hdmi-in)>(hdmi-out arc)>samsung tv{hdmi-in arc)

ask ko lang from anyone dito - what could be the cause yun  intermitent mag blank yun screen (for a few seconds) while playing? hinde naman nag stop yun player..continuous pa rin sya mag play ...  nakaka inis kasi minsan thrilling na yun part then biglang black screen - although for a few seconds lang man sya but it still a bummer!

thanks mga bossing :)

Well as advised already by others, try to replace the hdmi cables. Or do step by step troubleshooting by removing first either ps4 or the soundbar in the loop. Kung saan lumalabas ang blank screen then that device could be at fault or the cable being used. Swap devices /cables again til you pinpoint the problem source. Madaling mag isolate this way.
