Samsung LCD blinks/blanks when dark - is this intentional/a

by RafeDonson Nov 22, 2012 7:56AM PST

I've got a Samsung LE37D580 37 inch LCD TV, and I've noticed that when the picture on screen goes dark, the screen blinks/blanks. I'm not sure if this is something the TV's started doing this or if I've only recently noticed this. I suspect it's the latter. It seems to be affected by the brightness.

For example, when if I watch 'The Thing' on Blu-Ray, with the brightness below 45, when the opening credits fade out between names, the screen momentarily goes totally black. But I have the brightness higher, it doesn't do this. Is this some feature of the Samsung tellies? There are no power saving settings turned on.

Hi RafeDonson,

Thanks for your message. But just so you know: if you want Samsung support, I support US products and customers. And from what I can tell, this model is for UK. (Correct me if I'm wrong.) So while I can't help you directly, if you want Samsung help, here's the Samsung UK portal for support on that product: http://www.samsung.com/uk/support/model/LE37D580K2KXXU

Hope this helps you!

Regards,
