    I have the same problem. It started after we got the nintendo wii and one of the settings was an option for the picture to either be full or widescreen. I picked widescreen for game play and that is when I noticed that there were things that were getting cut out of the picture on the top and bottom and both sides of the screen. I've tried everything I could think of and nothing has worked. On top of that, I can't find the manual. Somebody help me please!

    Exactly the same thing has happened to me with a nintendo Wii.

    I still haven't sorted it out. Please Help before the tv goes out of the window.

    The picture is stretched and I seem to have lost a small portion of the bottom of the screen. One day it was fine and the next day I had this problem. Text at the bottom or top of the screen is cut. I did not change anything I thought maybe I hit something accidently on the remote, but I have no clue what caused this problem.

    I went through the manual and did everything associated with changing the picture. Resetting did not set the picture back to original mfg settings.

I do not know this set but try new batteries in the remote control. Try different sources of the picture, ie. from the scart input, or AV input or internel TV tuner. If all the pictures from the different sources are streched then one or more components in the frame or line timebases is faulty.

There is a problem in the Vertical sweep circuit. it could be a bad capacitor, a resistor that changed value or the vertical output IC.. These sets have no user replaceable parts inside of them as all the parts are soldered into place. If your not good with solid state brepairs, you will need to find a servicer to assist you with this repair. Good luck PS please do not forget to rate this.

How do I change the picture size?
You can change the picture size by using either the TV remote or the cable box remote (which ever you are using). Just go into the TV settings option, scroll through the different options that adjust everything from color and tint, sound, contrast, etc, and you should find one for changing the screen size (my Sony TV can be changed from normal, and wide, to wide zoom).

How do I get the picture to be as big as the tv
The picture is controled by the zoom on the tv remote and on the reciever remote. if you're looking at Wide screen containt the your screen will be black on the top and bottom, zooming will make it fit but you will loose some left and right info. Only HD containt formated for home tv's will, like Oasis, or National geographics, ect will give you full screen. Wide screen is for Movie theaters not TV. This realy sucks but to get a large Wide Screen Picture, You have to buy a supper large tv otherwise, the Wide screen image is small and wide and preaty much anoying with a short wide picture with black bands on top and below..
Sorry. We all have to live with this stuff.

What are the best picture settings for a ln32b360 samsung lcd tv.
Well, picture settings for this tv, is basically personal preference, size of the room, distance you will be from the tv, ect. even the lighting in the room. Changing any of these factors can change what resolution you wanna put your tv into. As well wide or full screen is a personal preference. The best thing to do would be simply play with the display settings and see what works the best for you. Telling you exact settings may not work for you.
