Hi guys, I'm after some advice about my Panasonic TX28DT4 television. I bought it back in the sales after Christmas but shortly after I noticed a problem with the picture when playing DVDs.
Basically about 1.5-2cm of the right hand side of the picture appears to be rolling back onto itself.... Its a bit weird but you know how PC monitors look if you set the horizontal screen control too far in one direction? When watching DVDs with lots of camera pans it becomes very distracting because objects that pan off the screen then seem to bounce back into the 2cm bar?! Very very distracting.
Anyway, I called Comet and they picked the TV up to take to their workshop for "adjustment". I had hoped everything would come good since this seemed like a fairly simple adjustment but when I got the TV back yesterday it was just as bad??? Worse than that, the case had been cracked during the repair!!
I called Comet today and they told me that the TV had been: "adjusted to manufactures specifications" and "optimised for 16:9 viewing". They have offered to take the TV back to replace the case (fair enough) but since the TV has been adjusted to "manufactures specification" they said thats probably all they could do.
I can't believe that Panasonics spec allows for a 2cm roll back on the screen edges. Comet blank refused to provide me with an exchange for the TV so I don't really know what to do now.
I've tested the set with another DVD player to see if it was just my player but I got the same results
Any advice would be much appreciated.
