Hello!
I use a Playstation 3 as blu ray player for my BV7-40 MKIII. They are connected via HDMI. Some of the blu ray discs - although they have no regional code - show no picture (black screen), but only sound (e.g. blu rays of Elton John, Bruce Springsteen, ...)!! I tried a different HDMI 1.3 cable, but still have the same problem.
What´s the problem? Do I need a new firmware? Is it a problem with HDCP? What can I do??

I've never experienced that....but it could be a HDCP issue as you say. I notice with the latest sw that the BV7-40 MKIII takes a lot longer to show a picture after pressing the remote. Sometimes this can be around 10-15 seconds. Very occassionally it doesn't show at all (no video nor sound) and I have to press DTV then go back to V.MEM to let it re-handshake. This rarely happens though.

Perhaps you need the software upgrading? Seen the white flash issues we've been discussing on the forum?

Have you tried pushing the source button again on the beo4/beo5 after the disc starts? Blu-ray and HD DVD players are notorious for their long start-up times, resulting in the video sync with the Beosystem being lost. Pushing the source button (e.g., V.AUX, etc.) again will force a re-sync with the video.
