Hope u guys can help as I`m loathed to get any repair guy etc to take me telly from me! I have a Phillips 28PW6322 ( ex rental) & have had it for a couple of months. The other night I was watching What Lies Beneath ( great sound & piccies BTW) when i noticed some ghosting ( excuse the pun) but only on the right hand side of the image! I have heard talk of this before & I`m pretty sure it`s called harmonic streaking or smearing. It`s not obvious BUT as soon as u notice it then of course u tend to start looking for it ALL the time! My question is.............can i get rid of this if I can gain access to the service menu or is it something to do with scart leads etc? Have noticed this is not as obvious using a composite picture. I have a Sky digibox ( pace) & a Tosh 2109B DVD player & cos the pace digibox allows RGB passthrough, both r connected to scart 1. Other than this glitch I am very impressed with picture quality. Any help/response appreciated. BTW FYI I have the contrast & colour set @ 1/2 & the brightness set @ a bit below 1/2...........no N/R & sharpness & 1/2.
