I just purchased a new tv (JVC LT-42C550) and when connected to my motherboard using IntelHD graphics using a HDMI cable it works as intended. The problem is when I connect the tv to my GPU (R9 380) the tv says it is connected via DVi for some reason. This becomes an even more annoying issue as the screen constantly turns off and on as if the input was changing, and often black screens (though audio still works?).
I have tried searching for similar issues although nothing seems to explain why my HDMi connected tv would appear as DVI, and the screen issues only happen when this is the case. Please help if you can, thanks.

Use a different port on the TV. This happened to me, and i was plugged into HDMI 3, the screen would go on and off while audio played, then turned off after awhile. I moved it to HDMI 2, and it worked fine.
