Tv has a red tint to it. it looks like I'm watching a 3D movie without 3D glasses on

  • jpitcairn Jan 06, 2011

    I bought it 18 months ago, and the model number is LN52A550P3F

  • jpitcairn Jan 06, 2011

    i read that I could replace the IC convergence component, but am not sure how to get that part. Most of the components on the tv (I took the back off to scope it out) snap in and out, but I'm just not sure exactly what I'm dealing with...

It would help a lot to know the model number, it sounds like a convergence problem but I need to know the age and model number (both are on the back of the set.)

    This is a LCD set and does not have a convergence circuit, these sets only offer replacement of boards and if they are not the problem it is a bad panel, the entire front screen of the set.

    Is there any way you can post a photo here of what it looks like? (it can be done here) or post it on some site where I can see what it actually looks like.

    My best guess at this point without seeing it is either it is buffer board or a bad panel, the buffer board may be described in other terms as all have different names for this part.

    To be honest you have to look at picture, make few voltage checks and then take a chance and buy and replace a board.

    I will attach site that does sell boards for this.

How do i watch a 3d movie on my 55"thorn tv?

the tv automaticly determines if it should go to 3D mode as long as the DVD player or say like PS3 or PS4 is connected to HDMI (yes those two game consoles will support HD Blueray 3D and DVD 3D movies) if the TV isnt displaying 3D look into the video settings of your TV to enable that ability also your TV will come with 3D glasses if the TV supports 3D

We are confused on what we need to do to actually get the 3D glasses to work with our tv.

Only certain channels are 3D and are usually marked in channel description as being a 3D content channel and those are only ones in which the glasses make it look 3D. A 3D channel viewed without the glasses would be noticeably different looking than a regular channel. You cannot just put on the glasses on a 3D TV and think all channels are 3D. Sports and live programming now is the most popular content in 3D on regular TV and there are DVDs made in 3D. It appears that 3D may be on verge of being dead as many of the national networks have abandoned plans for 3D platform and ESPN which being live sports is most likely to be the easiest to transmit in 3D has said the will stop their work on adding 3D content. I believe the 4k sets and content are what is driving this as most providers would rather invest capital money into 4k which is in demand far more than 3D and cheaper to do as well.

What kind of TV supports 3D?

You need to look for TV's labeled 3D ready feature a screen capable of displaying 3D content, and have the necessary emitter built-in. One important thing to keep in mind is that you'll need more than just a 3D TV to watch 3D at home - you'll also need pairs of 3D Glasses for anyone watching, as well as a 3D video source, like a 3D Blu-ray movie.

How to play a 3d movie on a normal HD screen.............

Unfortunately, there is no way you can do this without making some adjustments to either the movie clip or to your TV.
These adjustments could eventually end up in making the 3D movie more or less a normal HD movie.
The best way is to buy a 3D TV and glasses. This would help you watch the movie in 3D.

Strong colors, specifically those in the red

it seems you are experimenting a light engine problem.This is how your tv works: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZLLHnQ4y-wo So basically the 3 Lcd chips that create the colors and image is going bad and thats why you get that color discoloration.Contact maker or look for your light engine online.

Looks like watching 3D movie(colors) and rounded

This is a convergence problem and is either bad connections on the convergence ICs or defective ICs. If you feel that you can solder, you should be able to repair this yourself. First try resoldering the pins on the convergence ICs. If that fails, replace the ICs. These ICs are large black ICs attached to a heatsink and should be marked STKxxx.
Keep us posted.
