Solution:
Your TV has a convergence problem. Here are some of the most common symptoms.
Here is a quick test....
Using your original remote go-to the tv settings then goto the convergence or magic focus section.
Try to adjust the convergence.
You should be able to move them up, down, left, and right.
If you can't move them in all directions your convergence chips are bad and should be replaced. This is a common problem.
Its a fairly easy fix on the Hitachi sets.
You can get a repair kit that includes all the parts from www.TvRepairKits.com. The kit includes a photo instruction guide, original Sanyo STK chips, convergence resistors, etc.
Everything you need to fix it yourself.
Needs convergence IC's

These sets need to have all three colors - RED - BLUE - GREEN - lined up correctly on the screen in order for the picture to look normal. This is called convergence.
When its out of alignment the video will look 3-D, wavy, distorted, etc. Most of the time you just need to adjust your convergence in the menu. If you cannot adjust it in the menu - then your convergence is broken and needs to be repaired. Convergence problems are very common on all Projection TV sets including Sony, Samsung,JVC,Philip Magnavox,Panasonic,Akai,Pioneer, Hitachi,Mitsubishi,Zenith and others.
You can get more information and a DIY convergenece repair kit with instructions from the link below.
Here are some of the most common problems with these sets...
Problem #1) Convergence
Yours may have one or more of the following symptoms...
*Screen Looks 3-D
*Colors wont align
*Screen may look distorted or warped
*No Audio/Video - TV Shuts down - May also make a constant chirping sound
Problem #2 - Another common problem is dull or washed out video.
Your set may have one or more of the following symptoms....
*Dull looking picture
*White looking picture
*Halos around objects
*Red/Orange looking picture

have slight double imige on left side
the color is off on my TV. it looks like everything has a reflection
the color is off on my tv. we tryed the majic focus but that does not work. help
We recently moved our hitachi 53UDX10B projection TV about 2 ft. and the magic focus (which is automatic) is not setting right. It skips the blue color focus completely and does not seem to do a thing to fix it. The screen has a 3-D image with the green color forming a sort of back shadow on images. Also, on the left side, the alignment seems to be a bit off. From the research I've done so far, I think it may be a convergence IC's problem, I'm not sure. I live in a small town where the repair shop won't touch my TV. I have however checked to see if any wiring was loose and it all seemed secure. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
I have the same problem could someone help me out. Thanks Dave
I have the same problem. Â It looks like I am looking through a set of 3-d glasses. Â Thanks
I have an Hitachi Ultravision tele, approx 12 yrs old. There is a double discolored image on the left side of the screen. Any suggestions?
Hello,
I can't believe I found this website. We have the same problem. Our projection tv is about 5 years old and we have had no problems until now. The left side of the picture is showing red double images but the right side is perfect, so annoying to watch this. Our tv is Hitachi #53SBX10B. Can you help us out? Barbara
We have a Hitachi 53UDX10B and on the top left side of the screen is the red line like everyone else seems to have. At first we thought it was our cable connections and have disconnected/reconnected, bought new cables, tried to make adjustments. etc. without any response. I am to understand it is the convergence IC's. Are these expensive? Do they require service or can we do it ourselves?
Iam have the double image problem. I have tried everything
My Red and Blue Focus is slightly off, is there a manual way to adjust this...the "magic focus" is a magical joke!

Left side - same as many others have written - if I tuen it off right away I was able to get it to reset but got more often and now have to call for service - noone will give me a price over the phone only that it will cost $90 nto just come out - seems to me many have stated 5 to 6 yr set same issue and always on the left side out of focus double image - any suggestions
left side 30% out of focus - turn set off right away and sometimes it will fix it for a whiloe but then it happens again and the fix time gets shorter
