Hi. I have curved lines in one half of my screen when turning over a channel which fades away a few seconds after the program comes on.

It also appears on the other side of the screen when there is writing in the top corner on a HD channel.

Is this normal?

My 4000 does exactly the same and I just accept it as another 'quirk'

You will also see it if you adjust the volume on the box too.

Welcome to our Forum

More then likely a TV problem...can you provide TV details.

I have 4000/5000T connected to Sony TV and have not witnessed similar...I'll connect one to an LG and test that later.

I have tested it on different TVs in the house and it does it on all of them. This is the second box I have received from a different store so I know it is the box.

I can upload jpg to show - what size do they need to be please?

If it's landscape I resize width to 1200pixels (1200 height for portrait)

Nothing like that with my 5000T (It's a Panasonic TV).

I suspect the OP is referring to the slightly darkened areas that on-screen text is placed in.

How big are they ? File can't exceed 20MB .

Do you have any photo editing software you can use to resize image ?

Thank you for being patient with me. Have tried loads of different sizes and even a 800x600 at only 425 kb still won't load. Keeps saying (denied size).

Think it may be down to number of posts. One for Barry. You could upload a picture to a fileshare site and give us a link. In the meantime can you look at the TV setup video options. Some of the more esoteric video processing options like high colour or frame doubling etc can produce unwanted results. Try turning off any similar options one at a time to see if you can track one down.
