Im getting some annoying colour bleeding (seems to be only to the right of original colour) on my TV, especially with reds. I would just assume it was a reception issue, but Im getting it with DVDs and the DVD player system menu too. Any ideas how to get rid of it/ why it might be happening?

Are you watching via composite?

Switch to RGB big boy :D

DVD player doesn't have an RGB out :(

I get it on normal TV too anyway so it's probably not the problem

Hmm

Can you try S-video - also try turning your contrast and brightness down.

Sounds like tube flare to me. Ie the tube is showing it's age.

Umm the TV is less than a month old :suspect:

It better not be that!

The only inputs it has are 2 scarts. :(

What TV is it?

It's a Samsung Flat 28" CRT (WS-28M64VS) from Skybuy.

Could this be from magnetic interference from the floorstanding speakers on either side of the TV? I don't think they're shielded.

Also, the screen gets blurrier to the edges (left & right)... is this a symptom of the manipulation of the tube to get it flat? Maybe it's all the speakers? they're not that close though (a good 25-30cm gap at least on each side).


Oh and one last thing :D when I use my TV out from PC to TV, the left and right extremities of the image aren't a nice straight line, it's a bit wobbly and tapers off towards the top. Any way to make that go away?
