Bright/ Dim picture: Or could the dim/bright thing be related to anything else?

We had the same issue after we installed the TV in 2 months ago. The brightness of the TV cycles through the lamp opposite from the TV - if we turn the lamp on, the screen gets bright within 3-4 seconds, and if the lamp is off, the screen is back to darker and dimmer image within 3 seconds. We have tried other lamps to see if interferences the TV responds to, but this is the only lamp that works that magic. the two devices dont share the same electric source either.

Mine is perfectly round and crisp at all brightnesses. Perhaps you do have a dud.

Yes. The modem's lights are noticeably bright in a dark room. It bothered me a little, at first, but I quickly got used to it. Had it really bothered me, I would simply have returned the modem for a refund.

I don't know. My tv has a fuzzy picture on some channels, but I'm not sure that has to do with the lamp. My tv is still working.

That's a really subjective question. I think it's a bright light when turned up all the way (we have ours on a dimmer) - glaring almost.

Try adjusting the intensity to a lower setting. If you have any type of stigmatism all red dots will kinda appear that way as well. I found with mine that lowering the brightness helps if I'm not wearing my glasses.

Don't know if there's a fix(?). Mine has a very clear picture,better than most I've seen.

ive had my tv for a few months and its pretty crystal clear. my boyfriend figured out the settings for me but he just plays around with it. he has the setting like this: picture mode- standard, backlight- 72, contrast- 100, color- 25, brightness- 0, sharpness- 6.Now under advanced picture settings:auto brightness- off, dynalight- on, dynamic contrast- high, edge enhancer- off, noise reduction- off, clear scan- cinema.Good Luck

I think I found an answer to the issue. The problem I had is that I changed the settings immediately to "Dynamic," which raises the brightness significantly, and is only supposed to be used in a very bright room. When I put the settings back to normal everything looks great and the side light issues disappear. I guess I just need to listen to the suggestions of what the different picture modes are for.

Are you tapping or holding the button? Holding the button will (if the light is on) cause it to brighten or dim. Tapping the button turns the unit on and off. If anything beyond that is happening, I'd suggest getting it replaced, it might be defective.

If it's not affecting the picture I wouldn't worry about it. I haven't noticed it on mine. The only bright area is around the edges when I have the brightness up.

maybe double check the settings menu, I saw a "dynamic contrast" in there somewhere. Don't know if it would help any, or if it's default on or off, I was clicking all over the place! It could also be using more power to light up the screen? Is your video card good for the resolution? Just guesses....

Yes. There are three levels of brightness. The brightest one is almost too much. I use level 2.

yea i noticed that in the onset, Sometime even when i changed the brightness manually it would stay the same. I restarted my machine and some pending updates were installed i don't kno if that fixed it but it has not happened since.

I haven't used the TMax in a while but you should be able to go into the "settings" screen and brighten the screen from there. Either through a display setting or look for a slide tab for screen brightness.

I didn't understand that either. I hear you can adjust it if you put it into retail mode, but I haven't bothered to do so. Increasing the brightness any takes more energy and shortens the life of the TV anyway.
