Jack; Hope all is well with you and your beloved TV! Here's where I stand: I tweaked the JVC more, but just couldn't get it up to my satisfaction. The warm-up period was excessive, and I could never get the red push versus green tint balanced as I wanted. So I returned it. I bought the...

Thanks, Paul. Turning off scan velocity modulation helped the picture quality quite a bit. I don't notice as much pixelation as before. Another thing I discovered while poking around in the service menu: The memory_init takes the settings back to as-manufactured (which is not a good thing...

I just purchased a 36UDX10S and am quite satisfied with the color. But I'm noticiing a resolution issue, much like I've seen with digital cameras. It seems that in views/frames with lots of information, the pixel size grows to be very large so that it looks like a very low-resolution picture. It...

Thanks again, Jack. Yes, you've certainly invested a lot of time in this. What better way to spend a weekend? I haven't tried the other JVC model yet, although I intend to do so in a couple of weeks. Also, I'm considering the Hitachi 32UDX10S, which is HDTV, but only 32 inches. (The 36UDX10S...

Thanks, Bob. I appreciate your time to reply. I've looked at several forums and user reviews of the 32UDX10s and the 36UDX10s. One issue that some people have is ghosting and pixel artifacts when viewing conventional NTSC analog signals such as from a broadcast antenna. Evidently, this is a...

Bob; I just saw the 36udx10sa and am considering buying it. How do you like yours? Any issues? Any suggestions? Thanks geo

Allan; I just saw the Hitachi 36udx10sa and am considering buying it. How do you like yours? Any issues? Any suggestions? Thanks geo

Jack; I'd appreciate any updates you have, even though I'm returning my set. One of the alternatives I'm considering is a different JVC model, specifically the AV36320. So probably most of what you and I have discovered will apply to that model. Thanks for the tip about Consumer Reports...

Jack; Last night, I viewed a VHS tape which I had recorded earlier this week. I had both old and new TV going through the entire program. Prior to watching the recorded program, I surfed some of the satellite and live antenna channels. The colors on the live programs was rather OK after the...

Jack; Sorry, I misled you. The S21 default value of 003 which I gave you was for the composite input, not the component input. I checked the default for the component, and it's 002 as you also found. Yes, I noticed the 16:9 setting also. Are you thinking that it would auto-set the...

Jack; I'm very familiar with S21, because that and S44 are what I've been using to correct the red push. S21 default was 003, which is also the maximum setting. I didn't see any effect of reducing that to 002 or 001. But in going from 001 to 000, the red push was significantly changed...

Thanks, again, Jack. I've spent lots of time over the past several days trying to get the color right. Several times I've got it to the point where I'm quite happy, then later I find myself tweaking again. So I decided to set everything and just leave it alone but watch to see whether...

Hi, Jack. I fiddled with my colors a bit tonight, and I think I've reached a point where I'm happy. Still no change to the red push, but it doesn't seem necessary. I lowered the blue cuts to be more comparable to the red and green. But the blue is still higher. My next step is to adjust the...

Gosh, I appreciate your description of the squeeze. I was going to experiment with it. I've not had adequate time to make a final decision about keep / return the set. But I did what you suggested: return everything to out-of-box and only twiddle with the cuts and drives. I decided to use a...

Jack; I definitely saw the vertical size. I'm not at my set right now, but I think it was in menu #2, the Deflection settings. Thanks for you response. Actually, last night I did try what you suggested. Adding a certain number of points to the cuts and drives didn't fully fix it; the...

Jack; Obviously, I had a brain cramp in my last response. The calibration web site was the one I had sent you earlier. Duh! :frowning: Anyway, I would be interested to know whether you have the same issue with the VCR. Thanks geo

Gosh, Jack. I'm certainly glad we began this discussion. What is the JVC calibration site you mentioned? I don't think I've seen it. Last night, I played with the MAT and GAIN I mentioned earlier. S21 and S44, as I recall. the MAT setting had more effect on red push than the GAIN...

Jack; I have not been able to find documentation about the AV36S33 nor your model. And I haven't yet purchsed the service manual. So I went into the service menu and tried to compare the settings on my TV with those described in the forum for the AV36230 and others. There are similarities...

Jack; I tweaked my AV36S33 last night, and now I'm quite happy with the color. If you decide to try it yourself, let me know. I'd be glad to write up what I did. It is a bit different than the instructions on the forum for the AV36230. Regards, geo

Jack; Look here: http://home.earthlink.net/%7Etlhuffman/jvc/jvc.htm There is mention of the green tint issue. I haven't tried it yet, but intend to. Be sure you write down the out-of-box settings before you change anything so you can undo if necessary. A related question: It seems...

Jack; I just purchased an AV36S32, and I also have the green tint problem. Have you had any success in finding a solution? Is there anything in the service menu that can help? geo
