Oct 29, 2012 5:31 PM in response to Brunoximusby Javier Chorrillos,I get the same exact problem on my new Mac Mini late 2012 i5. Mine is hooked up to a 60'' Sony Bravia TV through HDMI. Hopefully an update will be able to fix it.
Also, my external hard drive isn't being read every time I restart my Mac Mini, I have to unplug the USB 3.0 drive and then replug it back in...

Oct 30, 2012 7:52 AM in response to Brunoximusby R0mulox,Thank goodness I'm not the only one! I'm just posting a "me too" to have this post gain some visibility. I have the same TV as Javier, except I go through a yamaha receiver. A little sad because this is my first mac mini ever, and I want to use it as a plex server!!! What a sinking feeling you get when this happens. It's not that bad though (yet).

Oct 30, 2012 9:49 AM in response to R0muloxby V M1,I'm just hoping it's a software issue that can be easily fixed with an update and not a hardware defect. It clearly is not an isolated incident because quite a few of us are having this issue.

Oct 31, 2012 4:22 PM in response to Brunoximusby V M1,On average, to me, it happens around 3 times in a span of about 3 hours. I have also noticed that the lengths of the video blackouts vary from about 1 second to about 7 seconds. Sometimes it is a 1 second video blip with no "snow-like interference" other times I get a blackout for about 3 seconds, then snow for 1 second and black for another 3 seconds. I am going to do my part in having this issue resolved for everybody. I also received a call from an Apple engineer.

Nov 2, 2012 4:25 PM in response to Brunoximusby koyeung,I've the same issue with Mac Mini (late 2012). In addition, my display screen (via HDMI) is losing light colors, similar to the screenshot shows here.
How about your screens?

Nov 2, 2012 4:36 PM in response to koyeungby V M1,That screenshot doesn't show the problem but I suspect it is due to the fact that what he is seeing is actually caused by improper monitor settings.
In your case, has it all of a sudden started losing light colors or has it been like that since you purchased it?

The same monitor was used with macbook and there was no problem.
