Talk to the vendor that sold this to you. I see no USA distribution.

Website that isn't Chinese?

Please no CAPS its shouting.
It sounds like the conversion circuititry is cutting in for some reason
get back to the vendor and get your money back.
Unsupported rear projection systems will be nothing but grief.
As far as I could find there is no authorized distrbutor for this model anywhere in NA.
Rear projection systems are beautiful TVs but will cost you big $$$ when something goes wrong.

I buy my TV on E-Bay, with a company call VISTAR Distribution.
Igot this website that come with the TV to register the product;

Are they dots or is it little square pixelization? This would be from a bad signal and happens on all digital tv's if there are atmospheric conditions, bad cables or weak signal for any reason and is normal. Does it happen on all channels or just a few? I regularly have the pixelization problems on a few select channels. If this is not the problem, contact the people you regeistered with. I have been having this problem a bit more the past few days but we have been having thunderstorms too. Also, if there is sunspot activity it may interfere with the signal.

These are the owners of the web site. contact them to return the TV. Also advise E-BAY that the unit was defective.
As far as I can tell They are not listed as authorized diatributors for Kolin Olevia. Of course web sites often are a little slow in posting new info.
I contacted some friends and they could not find any data on your set. That said expect $850. to $1600 to get it repaired.
Best bet is to send it back where you got it and cancel the credit card charge.

Ricoman... don`t know if Are they dots or is it little square pixelization, but this haven sometime when i watch the TV.
Is like very tiny dots, like is snowing in the TV screen.. come and go.
I hope is son interfecences arrond, because this kolin TV is brand new.
All the conection cables are right.. and also, i got Dish Network satellite TV.

Those tiny little brite green Dots , looks like snowing or ghost in the screen.
Like I say, is Not all day that happen...is somtime where we watching TV or a program.
I change the channels to see if this dots dissapears, but NO.. keep doing the same in others channels.

Try watching a commercial dvd and see if the dots show up again,if they dont then its a reception problem.

Good idea. Also, maybe contact the dish company before you go thru the trouble of returning the TV. I had a buddy that had all sorts of reception problems with his satellite TV. It took 3 visits before they sent an expert who straightened the problem out. The first 2 were local outside contractors for the Satellite company who didn't know Jack Shit. They sometimes do that because they don't have local offices. Good luck.

I don't even trust authorized dealers to buy a TV from

I got Google translate to work on a Chinese Kolin PT-501 site. Is this your TV? Is so, What signal are you feeding to it? Is this a high definition Dish satellite tuner?

http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=zh-CN&u=http://www.ehomecn.com/Article/...1%2B%26hl%3Den

I find it amazing how well Google translate worked on that page.

This the Chinese manual. Google can't translate a PDF.

I have a Kolin 50" projection TV that is about 5 months old. Recently when you start it up there are several clicks from inside and finally the light on front blinks 3 times red and 1 time green, but will not start up. What does this mean?

It means you call Kolin for diagnosis and warranty support.
