Ok, I've had my TV for about a year and a half...it's a 52" RCA D52130
already, it has pincushion distortion (a line placed near the top curves high-low-high, and near the bottom, low-high-low). It's kind of noticeable during the larger widescreen movies (1.85.1 I think), but not during the thinner ones (2.35.1 I think)... during 4:3 TV viewing, it is noticeable when the camera pans up/down
Is there any way to fix this (is is because the screen is not totally fixed or something?) or am I stuck with it?
Also, I don't know what it is called, but I am getting an outline around objects... it's usually a red outline for objects on the left side, and blue for hte right.... I know it has something to do with the Cathode Ray Tubes, but no idea what.... What is this called? and is there any way to correct this, or again, am I stuck with it...
Also, should a TV this 'young' be doing that?
Thanks in advance for any help
