Sony kdf-e50a12u rear projection lcd bravia. red shadows

This *CAN* be fixed. This TV has a problem with running in the 60 Hz range with default factory settings, but it can be adjusted to remove the shadows. Be careful, though, the wrong setting in the service menu can really mess up a TV. Here's how you do it: To bring up the "service" menu, put the TV in standby mode, then press in sequence : Onscreen Display ( the little screen with the i+ in it ) 5 ( channel number 5 ) Volume Up ( upper end of volume button ) Analogue ( middle top button ) The TV should switch on and when it's warmed up, you should see a screen with lots of big green lettering on it. Press the "menu" button ( middle bottom ) Use the direction dial to move down to "LCD Drivers" and press right on the dial to enter this menu. Move down to "S H Pos Reg R". It should be "10", change it to "11". ( Left/Right to adjust ) Move down to "S H Pos Reg G". It should be "10", change it to "11". Move down to "SHPos Reg B". It should be "10", change it to "11". Press the menu bottom to drop out of the menus, and the standy button to drop to standby. Switch back on, and hopefully your ghosting will be gone.

This is due to you having a projection tv, some projection tvs are really bad for game playing and especially if you have a hdtv. even in the p23 manual it says that you shouldnt use with a projection tv cause it can damage your tv's screen permanently. I personally still play mine but, thats likly the problem.
