Everytime i play a blu ray movie on my ps3

I get this weird distortion at the bottom of my screen. Its like a line or something........i mean it only happens at the bottom of my screen and it only happens with blu ray. its like it didnt refresh fast enough or keep up with the rest of the picture. Does anyone know what im talking about? i have a 1080P sony Bravia tv.......and its hooked up with HDMI

I would say that is a possibility that the blu-ray drive is going, but if it's playing games alright then it seems improbable. I would get a blu-ray lens cleaner and try that first. The blu-ray drives in the ps3's aren't exactly rock solid though. They have good visual quality, but they aren't made to last forever. Though, this usually ends up with a disk read error and you just can't play any blu-ray disk including ps3 games.

I say try using a different HDTV, then try using a different cable at different settings(if you know someone you can borrow from).

Could be the cable, it hapens sometimes.

If the games are fine then it could be the cable because there could be a defect in the cable somewhere. Also you may be able to reconnect the HDMI cable and fix a pin connection problem. Most of these pins are gold plated that is great for keeping heat down and maintaining connection with one draw back and that gold is soft and becomes distorted if it's R&R a lot. I have had crazy problems in the past and found that one end of the HDMI cable has gotten knocked slightly lose. When this happens it effects either video or audio and usually not both at the same time.
