Humax Freesat Box patterning effect on DVI Ambilight phillips TV

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi, I need some assistance. I have a phillips ambilight tv model no 32pf9986 which has a dvi connection. I have bought a HDMI to DVI lead to connect my Humax Freesat HD box to the TV and I get what I am told is petterning, i.e lines going up the screen. The freesat box sits under a quite thick wooden tv bench a good 18 inches away from the TV. Does anyone know how to cure this? I was thinking about buying a dvi to hdmi converter from richer sounds and then buying a better quality hdmi lead, but they have stopped doing them (although I can get one from Maplin) Interestingly, when I've tried the factory supplied hdmi lead into my samsunf hd ready tv which has a hdmi & not a dvi socket, I don't get the problem. Will it be a problem with the TV or would it be the lead & has anyone else suffered this? Many many thanks. The current HDMI to DVI lead is Vivanco, so not the best, but not a totally naff make.
