I've got an issue with my PS4 and my 42" Panasonic G20 plasma. On the normal PS4 menus it is all fine but when I launch an app such as Amazon instant video or Netflix then the picture shows purple banding, seems like on brighter areas which are changing colour slowly.

It only happens when in these apps. I have tried changing HDMI cable. The TV menus themselves are affected too as well as the main picture.

I tried to take a couple of photos with my phone here:-

The first photo, the purple banding is what appears mostly when watching shows. I also happened to not the red effect on the TV system menus in the second photo.

It doesn't happen at all when watching Freest or watching Kodi via a Raspberry Pi.

Any ideas?
 
I might be wrong about it only being in the apps, I think the high contrast when in Netflix etc is merely exacerbating the problem.
