Hi All,
I've got an issue that I just cannot seem to find an answer to anywhere else. I have a 32in Bravia that has recently (~1 month) developed some strange transparent vertical lines. At first they only showed up on dark backgrounds, then after a few days they disappeared completely. Now, about 4 or 5 days ago they came back, and this time they are pretty much always visible to some extent, but especially on grey/dark and white backgrounds. I will try to get some pictures up later.
To try to describe the lines a little better since they are hard to see in pictures, they are all exactly the same size, evenly spaced, and flicker. They look white-ish from a distance, but they are transparent enough that the picture behind can still be seen, and if you get really close, there are a lot of green and purple dots in no particular order.
Now, I've done some pretty extensive testing to single out what's going on, but I don't know what it is technically speaking! The lines don't show up when I only hook up a coaxial cable and get a picture. However, if I plug anything into any HDMI port (there are 3) or through the component (either of the 2), and turn it to that output, then the lines show up. Doesn't matter if it's the cable box, Xbox One, or both.
Anybody have an idea of what's going on? Thanks a ton!
Quick edit: The lines distort the whatever is behind them when there is an actual show/game/picture up, instead of just a grey screen or something. Don't know if that makes any difference
