    Does your TV have a black reflective surface, or is your sensor bar placed on or near a reflective surface? This can cause jitteriness.

    Incubus it's new right out of the box. And getting close wasn't really helping either, that's why I was a bit worried.

    aboblyndsae thanks for the info, that was the problem. I have the bar sitting on my Blu Ray player and it's shiny black. I had my girlfriend hold it "mid air" and instantly it worked. The top of the LCD is also shiny black and would explain that as well. Eh it looks like I have to mount it to the wall with that double sided tape it came with, I'll figure out a way to not make it look so "rigged".

    Thanks guys for the help!

    And another thank you. I have a similar problem with my 46" Sony Bravia. The face is reflective and the top of the TV stand is black shiny glass. That explains a lot when trying to play Goldeneye or the Sam & Max games. Might have to glue my wireless bar on the wood that faces the couch.
