Rotel RSX-1055 and HD problem (1 Viewer)

[Jeff Schnebelen]

I think my Rotel is not Roteling properly This mostly happens when watching HD TV. During a viewing, if motion or graphics change very rapidly, My picture will completely cut out and go black then come back on. It kinda makes me think it is running out of Bandwidth. Has anyone experienced this with their Rotel? Here is a great example... Last night I was watching CSI in HD. Every time they would reenact the Crime seen, in their Graphics kind of way, my picture would cut out. VERY ANNOYING

AS Always, Any Ideas from the pros here are always welcome. Thank you.

Oh, I might add, I narrowed it down to my rotel by bypassing the rotel component video and taking the video straight to the Projector. The problem went away.

You might check here to see if any one else has had this problem. You could also go to Rotel's web site and send them an e-mail. They usually respond quickly.

The first 1055 and 1066 had bandwidth limited to 10, they had a upgrade (costs $100 on old units) to get upgraded to 100...

Rich is correct. The older version will not correctly pass an HD signal. Can you run the input directly to your TV?

Thanks you guys. My unit is brand new as of a few months ago. My software is the 2.x version so I thought I had the newer model rated at 200mhz of bandwidth. I will double check that. Also, thanks to LewB for pointing me to the htguide forum. I found a post on there of someone who did a config with my same projector with pictures and everything. I will be tweaking my projector this weekend.

As luck would have it, my rotel is bad. I spoke with my dealer and they gave me a reset code to try to reset the microprocessor. I did that and still got the same result. Now they want to send it in to Rotel to be repaired. I will be without it for 2-3 weeks. :frowning: I have a football party on Dec 9th so I must wait till after that to get fixed. Thanks again for you help. I know I can always count on this forum.
