I am very frustrated with Philips. Has anybody been having problem with the AV1 high-defination input. Intermittantly, the picture gets distorted ( colors, horizontal lines, and low volume).

I am on my 3rd Philips Plasma set & returned each of them with problems (Thank SAMSCLUB good return policy).

Last one a 42PF7320A had a problem with AV1 HD input. The picture would intermittantly get distorted & you would see horizontal lines. I thought it was the Cablevision's HD set-top box (Scientific Atlanta Explorer 4200HD) so exchanged that and the Component cables. The problem persisted. So I exchanged it for a Philips 50PF7220A set last week. This also has the same problem.

My 2nd set used to shut down after 10 to 20 minutes of play ( some overheating circuit protection I guess. I had that set for 3 months.

Does anyone else has same problem with their AV1 input? Two sets with the same problem is too much of a coincidence.

I might go and exchange it for a Samsung or a Panasonic ( ofcourse costs more).
