HDMI Issues with VIZIO E400i-B2 40" 1080p LED Smart HDTV

Jul 28, 2014 1:50PM PDT

Hey guys. I just purchased this from Walmart this evening. I watch movies and tv shows with my kindle fire hd tablet, and I have this hdmi cord that connects to one of the ports on the tablet to the hdmi port on a hdtv; so it shows the tablet display onto the tv screen, along with the audio. It works and shows everything for a little bit, then it cuts out for a second to a black screen, then back again. It does it repeatedly. Like for so many seconds it plays fine and I think it's fine, then it goes to a black screen for a second then comes back. It's very annoying and frustrating trying to watch something and that happens. Does anyone know what the problem could be? Thank you.
