Sounds like a bad connection on a voltage regulator. I had one that acted like it was a bad uP, but turned out to be just bad connections that I missed because of the plastic housing around the circuit board.

The complaint given is that any remote control will cease to operate the tv after about 30 min of operation, apparently front panel functions remain unaffected (didn't get a chance to verify yet). Does this discription jog any memorys on where to start, otherwise it is probabbly the solder shotgun approch, change the high failure caps, etc......
