I just got a TV with integrated digital, and every minute or so, the sounds goes off and on again (matter of seconds), which is beggining to annoy me. Anyone know how to fix it? Thanks

Make sure your connections are firmly and properly connected....
You may be experiencing problems associated with the Signal strength coming from your antenna....A good test is to switch to a KNOWN non-digital station and see how Noisy the signal is.....
Then attempt to adjust the antenna for best picture....
If the signal is really bad, you may want to buy a 20 db power amplifier and connect it right after your antenna....
I got one from Radio Shack USA and it works fine MOST of the time.....since I also have a Tunable Antenna, turning the knob, changing directions of the antenna, locks in the station I'm having problems with....
But even then with good lock, I can get one or two dropouts in a TV show.....
THE BEST thing is an outdoor antenna with that same power amp....and I prefer to aim the antenna using an old portable Black and White battery operated TV.....
But that works for me.....

Since you just got the TV you will be covered under the store warranty and/or the manufacturer's warranty. The store might outright replace it or you can call the toll free # to find where to take for free repair.

No its not normal its seems like a make and break situation meaning a wire is hot it makes a tiny break then cools and on cooling rejoins
and once again voices are heard.
