Ok so my Xbox 360 is connected to my tv through HDMI. Everything is fine and dandy until my screen flickers and I completely lose all audio. It happens to me randomly, but the past few days it has happened pretty frequently. Does anyone know what is going on because it is really starting to annoy me.

Sounds like some sort of sync problem. Make sure your HDMI cable is securely connected at both ends. Try using a different HDMI port on your TV if you have more than 1.

Beyond that, it could be a problem with your HDMI cable, your TV, or your 360. So I would recommend:

  1. Switching out your HDMI cable. If you still have problems, then it's not the cable.
  2. Trying using your 360 on a different HDTV. If you still have problems, then it's the 360
  3. If it's not the cable or 360, then the problem is with your TV - either hardware, firmware or setting.

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately, I don't have another HDMI cable nor another HDTV in the house. So I'll connect it to the other HDMI port and see if the problem still persists. Thanks again.
