    colors not lined up on dlp. whats wrong?

    Did I miss the answer to this? I have an issue with color no one seems to figure out and do have a center speaker on top of the TV. If this is what ruined my TV, I'm going to kick myself for a long time. I didn't think magnetism affected DLP's!

    Samsung DLP Display Issues

    Is anyone here from the Austin, Tx area? I called Samsung to have them tell me where the authorized service center in my area is and they reccommended E T Televison Service on Stassney. I called, they sounded OK but when Googled them, all I found was bad reviews. Needless to say, I called...

    Samsung DLP Display Issues

    It's starting to look that way, Joe. I can't say for sure my HDMI is out as I have not been able to rule out a bad cable or bad converter but I'm positive I've done all I can to verify the component cables are good. And again, the issue appears to only happen on the higher resolutions. When I...

    Samsung DLP Display Issues

    A little more information: I did move my TV to a completely different area so I don't think the issue is interference. I also have a cheap little DVD that has component and video connections. On component, I get the issue. On the regular video, again, no issue.

    Samsung DLP Display Issues

    Thanks all. This is an old set so it doesn't have an HDMI connection. I had a DVI to HDMI converter on the back of the set so I could hook up my HD Cable box. About a month ago, it stopped working. I hooked up to the components and it worked just fine so just figured either the cable or the...

    Samsung DLP Display Issues

    Quick question if you're still out there, Joe (or anyone else who might know). I've searched the color wheel issues and they're always accompanied by a "humming" sound. Do you know if this "humming" sound is always present when the color wheel breaks? I ask because I don't notice any sound.

    2007-2008 NFL season discussion thread

    I know I'm joining the discussion late and if my TV had broken earlier in the season I would have. ;) I find it very funny the media keeps hyping up the Giants so much. The only hope they have against Dallas is the "any given Sunday" factor. Eli does well against them and they still get beat...

    Samsung DLP Display Issues

    Thanks, Joe. The set is over 5 years old so definately not under warranty. The only thing I've ever had to do is swap the lamp and even it had over 8400 hours. I'll look for the color wheel and see about swapping out it. Again, thanks for help!

    Samsung DLP Display Issues

    All, I posted this in the Basics section yesterday not realizing this is the place I should post it. I'm having an issue with my DLP display. I've seen this issue before somewhere online but I can't for the life of me find it. I'm going to try and post a picture but I can best describe the...

    Doubling as a monitor?

    I have this on my TV. At first I thought I'd never use it but hooked it up anyway. Now I use it all the time. Especially when I miss a show, a lot of the networks have them online. I just log in and watch on my TV. The quality if pretty good.

    Help! Losing my mind trying to decide between DLP and LCD...

    LCD has come a long way in the past couple of years but I'd still go with DLP for the same reasons Joseph listed. You can't beat getting a new TV every 4 years for about $250.

    need advice on dlp

    I've played games with an Xbox on the Samsung DLP and the Sony LCD. They look much better on the LCD.... But as far as I can tell, the grapics on the PS2 are not as good as the Xbox. Not sure if they'll be better on the PS3.

    Need Help w/ Samsung DLP

    All, First post and I apologize that I'm already asking for help. I've been reading this forum on and off for a while and I've looked to see if anyone has had this problem but have not seen it. I've had my Samsung DLP for about 18 months and just recently, I noticed a small rectangular...
