- Hi, It's a plasma screen and it has now cured itself after showing the problem for around ten days!!?? A little worrying, as it is now out of warranty.

- TV is a PANASONIC full HD The problem has now gone, but it was also visible when playing DVD's. It was not a black band, but just like a 60% paler picture in the specific area - wierd! Thanks for all your help

What is your TV brand? For the plasma, if the black bar appears all the times and on all sources, the problem might come from the so-called address bar inside the TV. Try to play DVD to see if the bar is still there. If it is, you need technician to check and find the problem.

Is it an LCD or plasma monitor? If it's an LCD, it's possible that one of the fluorescent backlight tubes is bad. In some early ones, this is bonded to the LCD panel so it's not replaceable. Maybe it's under warranty?
