RE: Is it HDMI or Time Warner

Webnick:
What you are describing is the new Time Warner way to deal with bandwidth problems. When you tune a channel, there is a signal sent from the set-top-box to TW which tells them that you've tuned in that channel, then they send that signal back. They are no longer sending ALL HD channels ALL the time. So, the delay is what is needed for the signal to go to TW and back to you and this is "normal." The black screen is your cable wiring telling you that TW needs to come and replace the cable from the telephone pole to your set-top-box. Good luck. I had to threaten to write to the NY State Public Service Commission or switch to Dish to get TW out to my house...
