It is the same problem, your DVD's probably have a higher APL than the
demodulated video from the tuner.

I've searched the other topics here, but nobody's mentioned this.
I have a 35" Sony TV that blinks on and off repeatedly, but it does
this only while watching TV. I can watch a DVD with no problems. Is
this the same problem I've seen discussed around here? The TV was
bought around 1999.
