Folks, I'm hoping you can shed some light on something I am noticing on my 3-week old Sony KDP-57WS550. Firstly, I should add I am very pleased in general with the picture. HD is, of course, beautiful. But, after watching a number of DVDs that I know show close to a flawless picture on my HD-ready 32" CRT, I am noticing a slight shadow or ghost just to the right of most images on this new RP. After seeing it on DVD, I looked closer at an OTA HD presentation and it's there too although proportionately smaller.
I have calibrated with VE as best I know how. Any thoughts? Could this be something the anti-glare screen is introducing or some other part of the screen system? Once again, I used DVDs that are just incredible on my 32" HD set.
I am connected with good grade component cables direct from a Sony NC655P DVD player. The ghosting is present even if using the S-video although remember, I said the issue is there on OTA HD too.
I've messed with using the Interlaced, Progressive and CineMotion DRC over S-video and using the progressive signal from the DVD player over the component connection. I've determined the progressive output from the DVD player is giving me the smoothest, least jaggied picture. But none of these options address the ghosting at all. My view is it is TV-caused problem.
An ISF calibration is planned for the new year.
Any ideas would be appreciated.
