Community Power UserI've seen this on my Sony TV as well as my PlayStation. It's a result of the HDCP handshaking between the selected devices failing.
If it fails intermittently the quick fix is usually to power cycle one of the devices (PVR, TV, game console, etc.) and then the handshaking willl be renegotiated. This works for me.
If it happens frequently you may need to replace one or more of your HDMI cables.
Some devices have the ability to pick which version of HDCP is being used in their settings. There can be compability issues if different devices are using different versions of HDCP. Might be worth checking if your TV has the ability to do that.
