Hi All,
Done some searching but cant find my specific issue.
Basically, moved last May and had our Sky plumbed in and bought a new TV at the same time (LG 49UH620V). We were using a very old Sky HD box with a full HD package subscription. After a few days, I noticed shadowing or darker patches, mostly appearing Vertically on the screen when watching football. This was most pronounced when the screen panned from right to left and vice versa which obviously happens a lot during football. I also noticed this shadowing watching other things, although when the image wasn't moving much the picture was great. It was most noticeable when the screen was full with one or a similar colour, hence seeing it in football with all the green of the pitch.
I assumed it was the old Sky box and was due toy upgrade to Q in the next few months so left it. Issue was still there with the New Q box and even in UHD. So I moved onto the TV.
Contacted Currys (They are utterly useless but that another post entirely) and the TV went back 2 times and had new screens. Issue still there. It went back again and Currys thoroughly messed me about with culminated in a big complaint and a full refund on the LG despite buying it nearly 9 months ago.
So a few days ago I bought a Philips 50PUS6272 (Very nice at the price point) and I can still see the issue.
After all this waffle (Apologies!) could the issue be caused by the dish (LNB??) or the cabling from the dish? They are the only thing that haven't been replaced. 2 TV's, 2 Sky Box's and new HDMI leads but still shadowing.
Appreciate any comments.
