Hi,

I have a Philips 4:3 TV which is about two years old.

I am getting some "bleeding" of bright whites on to surrounding black parts of the screen.

This is most noticable when white text is on a black screen, or starfields in any space sequences.

The "bleeding" always goes to the right, never up/down or left.

Does anybody have any ideas, I have tried all the usual contrast/brightness/sharpness type settings and it didn't help too much.

Thanks for any assistance!

BTW: this problem has always been there as far as I know, its not a fault that has developed over time or anything.

If turning the brightness or contrast down reduces the bleeding slightly then it sounds like the tube. This is known as flaring.There is a chance that turning down the A1 voltage (internal adjustment) may help but it probably won't give a permanent cure.
