I just bought a new Samsung UN50EH5000 to replace a 8 year old LG LCD. I also have an older Yahama 5.1 receiver. I also use a Roku, where the output of that goes into the receiver, and the output of the receiver goes into the HDMI of the TV.
The problem is, since installing the new TV, when switching between something that is in stereo so something that is DD 5.1, the screen will go blank. The TV is still on. The workaround is I have to change the input to something else, then back to the original input. It seems in the brief 1/2 second it takes to to switch, it must disconnect and reconnect the HDMI signal, but the TV is getting confused.
My old LG never had this issue and the issue only happens the first time. After that, it works fine. Still, it's very annoying for a new TV. Do I need to upgrade to a newer receiver? Help please! Thanks.
Here's a video I made demoing the issue:
