Is it possible with me going through both an HDMI switch and an AVR receiver that could be contributing to my video blinking and audio dropout issue? Could the setting popcornmix be giving me be causing the Pi to keep a better HDCP handshake? The reason I ask is this really seems to be something similar to what I have seen when I am using my HDMI over ethernet balasts to send my living room hdmi video to my kitchen TV. I would see little glitches just like this when using that setup recently. In fact the last time I tried playing my Pi on my kitchen TV the handshake kept going away and I ended up giving up on it (it used to work quite well but I didn't realize that maybe this video/audio blinking thing could be related to that). Both issues are recent for me too because I never had that issue before. I used to be able to watch my Pi on my kitchen TV with no problems. I'm going to try some more stuff and see how well it works now on my kitchen TV with the settings popcornmix gave me.

I'm betting I might need to boost my hdmi output too. I believe there is a setting for this correct? I will look it up and try that setting as well.
