I've had a Loewe Xelos (Z5270W) for the past four years and it has served me very well.... until recently, that is. For the past year it has exhibited discolouration at the top of the image (about the first 15 lines or so) when watching DVDs - and only DVDs
When the problem first came to light, the DVD and my Sky digibox were connected to a manual SCART switch which, in turn, was connected to the TV's one RGB capable SCART. So, I checked each device in turn connected to the TV and with different cables and the problem was only ever visible when watching DVDs - so, naturally, I assumed the DVD player was to blame...
Ahem
Fast forward to yesterday - the first time I watched a DVD on my new DVD recorder... and of course the problem is still there
So, despite pretending for years that I know a fair bit about this AV stuff, this has managed to completely stump me. Has anyone seen anything like this or got any ideas why a TV should behave so differently to inputs from different types of device - on the same input socket??? Help!!!
Cheers,
m.
p.s. As can be seen from the attached image, a blue background appears magenta which is a bit weird as you wouldn't expect the red gun to be active at all. Similarly, an orange background turns green...
