Hey guys,

Just hooked my Xbox back up at home after Inferdoc, and the picture keeps having what look like scan line "pops" randomly appearing all over the place. It's really annoying.

I tried jiggling the HDMI cable, removing/reconnecting all the points of contact, changing HDMI channels, blowing on both ends of the cable, and messing around with the Xbox resolution. Nothing fixes it.

Since we have a lot of Xboxes and HDMI cables between us, I was wondering if this happened to anyone elses, and if there's an easy fix?

Cheers

Any chance it's set to 1080i or 720i instead of 720/1080p?

HDMI delivers digital signal, so it's more likely (as Doom said) to be a resolution issue than anything with the cable.
