Hi guys...
I'm having a discussion on another forum where someone is having a problem with an old LG set... in that due to watching a lot of 4:3 content, there are now vertical lines 'burnt in' in the exact edge where the 4:3 image ends.
Is this a potential problem for all widescreen sets where a lot of 4:3 content is watched? Or just older sets?
I checked out this calibration guide...
http://www.lyris-lite.net/quick_and_dirty_tv_setup.html
In section 4, it suggests that older sets actually create the black borders when in 4:3 mode - so that when you alter the contrast, brightness settings the black borders change too. I'm assuming that on newer sets this doesn't happen?... which would enable you do configure in the way mentioned.
Am I making any sense?
I've just bought a 37" Samsung M87, and I also watched a lot of 4:3 content on the TV (I can't stand a stretched image), and I'm paranoid that this may happen to me.
Any thoughts?
