42in Samsung with horizontal lines/static

We have had our Samsung for 3.5 yrs. It does get lots of use and waqs trouble free until about one month ago. Horizontal lines will appear and gradually worsen until the screen goes black. We turn it off, wait 2-3 hours and it will usually be ok. Any ideas why this happens? Is this considered the life span of a plasma screen? Do we need to get a new tv?

1st thing to do is to check its parts if it has a losen leg,then you have to check the horizontal out(H-Out) it is one of the larger transistor and it commonly place beside the Fly back X former ,the best material to used is multitester, and if it didnt work try to check the filter capacitor( it is the largest capacitor) And also check other capacitor, tnx hope it will helped you!

Check and replace damaged component/s at its horizontal scan output section circuit. Check the LOT (Line Output Transformer) too for damage. Replace the horizontal scan output transistor. Check the input voltage to LOT. If the voltage is absent check the feeder resistor; if any. If you wish to get some details; check the site linked here. Surf the site with patience.

DVD recorder -- displays blue horizontal lines only

Most DVD players today are very inexpensive.
If your system is working well otherwise, I suggest purchasing a new DVD player. Try that solution. If for any reason it does not work then another problem may exist which may include an issue with your TV!
