I am seeing thin, opaque horizontal lines going across my entire screen. Is normal? I see them on Netflix (SmartHUb) &amp; live TV. Not sure about HDMI. Also when I run Self Diagnosis &gt; Picture Test, none of the three pictures show the lines and even after...

I have had no problems at all of any kind but I would check for any close magnetic interference as this can be the source of these kinds of problems if it's not a tv defect.

I was using the cable with a PS3, and the "static" appeared regardless of what I was doing: playing games, watching a movie, going through the menus. Perhaps static is not the best word - it's not as though the entire screen went to snow. I could still see the picture, however there was definitely visual, random, moving interference on top. As for isolating the cable as the problem, I tried switching to another HDMI input, the problem persisted. I tried updating the PS3 firmware, the problem persisted. I checked the tv settings, nothing really to change there. I swapped the cable for another (GE), voila!, "static" gone. Maybe not scientifically indisputable, but a fair application of the process of elimination. Fwiw, Amazon did honor the warranty and send me a replacement cable. I opted to stick with the GE because it's performance has been solid so far.

Not sure ? When my TV went out, it started with horizontal lines across the full screen to not turning on at all !

HDMI on this monitor previously had color profile issues as well. I'm a bit rusty with it since I fixed it long ago, but certain graphics cards wouldn't support the full gamut across HDMI because they would detect it as a TV instead of a monitor. DVI and VGA at the time were the only ones that didn't have that problem across all hardware, but I don't think that's much of an issue anymore.

Hi Tkh,I had the same problem as well. I got 3 black lines across the screen. I wonder how long does it take for them to replaced the lcd screen. At the same day? Thanks.

I have never seen this either of my plasma TVs, especially on the LG 60PN6500. Did you see this on display at a retailer? If so, some retailers will change settings to make the plasmas look worse as the margin is higher on LCD/LED sets. Hope this helps.

I don't have a slow Netflix problem, but I do have a "flashing black screen" problem. This appears as an occasional flickering or a short blackout. Otherwise, the streaming is the best I have seen so far.

I have had no issues with blurred screen effects. Is your tv screen on the older side? If the problem persists just send the product back in exchange for a new one and see if the new one works better for you. This product is so wonderful though for older Tv users who want Netflix or Google play movies/Tv shows in the main family room!

Hi Jason, I tested it at 100" screen (wall yet) with no notice about pixelation. Nothing visible. Enjoy it!

It may be the monitor you have plugged in :) mine caps out at 1680 x 1050 ///// try plugging it into a hdmi tv :)

I agree and disagree.. I plugged mine in HDMI, same thing; DVI on the other hand lines up perfectly. This works out cause my r9 270 gfx card has HDMI, VGA, and DVI so my HDMI is empty for my 42 inch ;). But, I think you would have to manually stretch the screen through the irritating menu. For people who haven't gotten this yet, its not that bad; they just don't label the buttons. But if you can't navigate through a monitor screen, well you shouldn't be using a computer lol.. Great monitor so far!

wish i knew, i cant seem to find the sweet spot either, i read the reviews and set it to what some other guy had, and it looked bad on my set, i noticed when i switched from componet to hdmi, the color changed , somehow, not sure what the best settings are

Have similar issue, seems the hdmi out port is to blame, changed all the cables (several times) to no avail. This started after only 6 days, bought because of a relative small number of problems, only to encounter one myself. I have yet to find a fix and not willing at this time to have it repaired will prob send back for a replacement

This isn't caused by the monitor, it is caused by video drivers.I have an ATI card that did the same thing to it. Updating to the latest Catalyst drivers and setting the overdrive to 0% got rid of the letterboxing over HDMI. Everything looks awesome now!

I went into menu/source" and changed the input to "HDMI". The line went away!!If you dont have HDMI, change the input source to whatever you are using. This should get rid of the line.You should not see the line in any setting e.g. 16:9, 4:3, just scan etc.

I was extremely worried about this, but it really ended up being a non-issue. At a completely ridiculous distance from the TV (6 inches away -- think nose to the screen), you can make out the subpixel layout. At a distance of 3-5 feet, you can make out some additional jagginess on diagonal lines in some very specific circumstances (white text on a back background). At greater than five feet, the effect disappears entirely.

I have 3 plasmas (will have 4 soon). My oldest is 5 years old (480p). If I go to a blue screen I can see a slight burn from [MUTE] flashing in the same spot. With normal content on the screen it is not noticeable at all. The newer panels are so much more advanced and burn-in or IR is a thing of the past. Turn on the "pixel shift" and don't worry. Just don't fall asleep with a still image on any technology.
