| 1208313 | 2011-06-10 12:14:00 | Would anyone know how or why a Sony Bravia LCD TV would have lines across the screen? These lines are sectioned and each section appears to duplicate and magnify the image on the screen. The top of the screen is fine for the first 1/6th almost every 6th after that acts like a prisim repeating in the same way as the one before. Yet it doesn't go all the way across the screen. the top part of each of the 6th's is normal but the bottom is magnified or zoomed.

| 1208316 | 2011-06-10 22:15:00 | I have a similar problem but it is vertical. Mine however seems to be on the "outer" screen and the picture is fine behind. I have been told it is something I need to live with. Is your problem on the outer screen or on the inner? |

Its not a display function per'say... but almost a render issue as it is across all input type's. TV - AV1 - AV2 - HDMI and PC is it the cable maybe?? Reply: Even disconnected from input source's the lines persist. I have a similar problem but it is vertical. Mine however seems to be on the "outer" screen and the picture is fine behind.

The very top layer is perfect below this is like stacking 5 of those magnifying tools side by side. |

| 1208319 | 2011-06-11 10:09:00 | a KLV40X200A would have to be out of warranty unless you purchased an extended one, You could try the CGA. It may not be a screen problem, It sounds more like a component or processor issue. If it is the screen it's cheaper to replace it then to repair it. |

I think it is a component - It reminds me of the convergence chips in the Rear Projection Screens. |
