Help with new panasonic st50

Can any one help please!

I have just purchased a new Panasonic st50 but every time I switch on the picture keeps going on and off ,I can only think its trying to change the aspect all the time? I cant get it to stop, so annoying cant watch anything like this.

also every time I switch on I have to manually switch to hdmi 1 to get sky working, does it not automatically tune its self as sky is only thing plugged into tv ?

one last thing! how does the free Panasonic glasses work? no instructions with them ,cant get them to work with sky 3d?

Many thanks

What do you mean by the picture "keeps going on and off"? If that is the case then how do you know that you have to manually select HDMI1? Do you mean it lasts an hour or when you change channels or what?

Panasonic do have an autodetect for power on HDMI1 (or mine does) but it does have to be enabled but we need to sort out the first problem before then.

Hi

Once i am viewing a program the picture keeps going off and back on more or less straight away and the top left display keeps coming up , sure it keeps changing bewteen wide & 16:9 ?

It shouldn't do this unless there is a fault either with the TV or the connection. Does it do this with just Sky or also off the TV's Freeview tuner?

If you set the TV to 16:9 then that should disable any aspect ratio switching though it shouldn't just keep switching anyway.

I do have a very minor problem on my Panny where the picture will keep switching on and off but putting the Sky into and out of standby cures this - I doubt this is the same as mine only occurs every couple of months not every time.
