Colour is not normal, sometimes the picture is too dark, football pitches bright green, peoples faces very orange.

Started noticing the colour looking strange. Most obvious when watching sky sports, the picture is very dark at times, if presentors wearing dark suit jacket it looks completely black. Watching football the pitch is very bright green. Also I have noticed an imprint in the screen from SKY TV guide ie I go into TV Guide and select a channel, when the channel is now full screen I can still see the imprint(faintly) from the SKY TV Guide.

The amplifiers driving that portion of the screen have partially failed.
Sorry, this is a pretty common LCD problem.
If it is under warranty, call them.
If not, plan on replacing the main control module.

I had this problem too, fortunately I have a sky engineer friend who told me it is a known compatibility issue, all you need to force the latest firmware upgrade down to your sky box and hey presto, it will fix it. It depends on the type of box you have as to how to force the firmware download, but just google it and you'll find the combination of keys to press that will put the sky box into receiving a new firmware upgrade from sky.

Hope it helps you, it did me cos it was driving me crazy

Colors not matching computer

It is possible your colour cartridge has cross contaminated the ink reservoirs. To check this take the colour cartridge out and turn it over to see the coloured pads. They should look red, dark blue, and orange ( the colours are actually Magenta, Cyan, and Yellow, but are concentrated). If any of the pads are pale or particularly green - change the cartridge.
If the colours look alright, your issue is probably that your monitor makes colour by emitting light frequencies so is bright, printed images make colour by absorbing light frequencies so will always be darker. There is always the issue of course that your monitor also has a colour "temperature" bias. Photo pros calibrate their monitors and printers to match.

I find the colour contrast is very dark could you send me ideal colour settings for perfect clarity thanks

Hello
Adjust the contrast to 55 to 70%; brightness to 45 to 55% and colour to your viewing taste. Now the brightness will be very low I thinks. Advance the brightness and contrast after setiing the colour to Zero. Adjust for a well defined B/W picture first. The advance the coulour. Take reference of the face colour of a news reader at studio. The picture will be perfect. OK.

Too much ink

Hi, sounds like the colours are mixing because of the overfill. You can try this , but may take a while.
Get some tissues (around 6) fold them in half and put on the table. Keep dabbing your ink cartridge on the tissues in different places until you can see the 3 different colours clearly. This can take a while, but generally does work...

Need settings because of rubbish picture

There is no right or wrong setting for the TV, but I find the following give about the best results:

Contrast - 65 maximum
Sharpness - 2 maximum

If these are set any higher, the picture becomes very grainy, particularly around defined shapes.

Contrast + - OFF
NR - ON (If applicable)

These settings will need to be changed for each of the following:
HDMI 1& 2

EXT 1, 2 & 3
Analogue tuner
Digital tuner

The problem you describe, is usually with a satellite or cable box.

Unfortunately, there's nothing much you can do about the dead pixels, but the settings may make them less obvious.

Colour problem

I have default settings I normally use for most sets before I begin any kind of alingment. Contrast: 90% Brightness: 45% Color: 45% Tint: 50% If the brightness is to high or the contrast to low the color is off. Check your connections, there probably OK, but, it never hurts. If the settings don't help call a local authorized servicer in your area. Hope this helps.

fault on samsung LE37R8 TV. The picture comes on normally, then after a few seconds it flickers,fades,and goes off.After a few more seconds it again re-appeares before again flickering and going off.This cycle carries on repeating itself. This fault orginally occurred 2 months ago. I called out a repair company,and a technician replaced a capacitor, and this corrected the fault.The same fault has again returned approx. 2 months later.Surely a capacitor shouldn't fail in such a short period of time?
