I get the white flash also using component video on my 1070 - it bothered me enough that I switched to svideo on my dvd player.

I also switched my DVD to s-video. I can live with this change while Outlaw fixes the problem.

But I do have a quick question for other 1070 owners with the "white flash" problem: Have you installed the 12-06-05 software update, or do the white flashes also appear with older versions of the firmware?

(I didn't notice the flashes before installing the software update, but that doesn't mean they weren't there.)

Happy holidays, everyone.

Yes. I stated this in my original post, but I was having the problem before I applied the update. I was initially thinking that it was likely just a loose connection and it would be fixed when I pulled it out of the stack to update. That or something that might be fixed by the update.

No such luck. It has occured both before and after the update.

After seeing this post I was obviously concerned about my most recent purchase (Outlaw 970). Today I was able to set it up briefly to check out the video. I only setup the video section of the processor. I plugged in my X-Box and DVD player over the component inputs. I tried that scene from Toy Story 2 10 times and never saw any white flashes. I was looking really intently for it and saw nothing.

I'll look again after I have instaled it into my whole system, but that is not going to happen until next week.

I'm glad to hear you don't have the flashes, Charlie. Even with this problem, I really love my 1070 and expect you'll be happy with your 970.

Take care,
Matt
