Our Philips flat screen 32 inch HD tv is off center. It has "shifted" to the left. Picture is good, but if words are in the left of the screen you cant read the first couple of letters. I have adjusted screen size to 4:3 (it is not on expanded) but there is still about 2 inches of black on the right side and the left is way left.....dont know how or why this has happened. cant seem to get it back to center?
For me it was the cable box settings...
I'm not a tech person, so take this for what its worth. I had the same problem with my Vizio and my Time Warner Cable HD/DVR box using the HDMI cord connection. HD channels were always fine, and non HD channels were fine until I went to an HD channel and back. When switching back, the non-HD channels would be shifted to the left as you describe. After much back and forth with both Vizio and Time Warner (each saying its caused by the other), I stumbled across the following fix...
I went into the cable box (scientific atlanta 8300) "settings", under "display," under "output resolution." There was a list including 480i, 480p, 720p, 1080i, and "auto select." I unchecked both 480 options and left 720 and 1080 checked. Problem solved. The other "Display" menu settings are as follows: Picture Size = Stretch, Aspect Ratio = 16x9.
Hope this helps.
