This is driving me absolutely crazy! For some bizarre reason when my Mac Mini is on and I turn on my TV (and AV Receiver) I end up with a screen with a completely purple hue! The screen turns off and on a couple of times while it's handshaking and at first the screen is fine, but by the end of it it's constantly purple :(.

If I turn the AV Receiver onto another channel and back it will work fine, it's just so frustrating! As far as I can tell It's not to do with the TV, AV Receiver, cables or Mac Mini. Also I have tried changing the mac mini to 50hz and 60hz but no luck. I can only think It's a HDMI handshaking issue because once I switch back and forth it works no problem!

If anyone can help you will put my mind at rest because it's just SO FRUSTRATING! :(

Thanks for reading and hope you can help!
