Philips lost their way about 15 years ago, making over complicated gimicky equipment. Back in the 80's they were great but what the hell were they thinking of with their LED wall shining tv?? and their DVD recorder is the worst on earth, it's a bitch to work, it's no wonder British shop shy away from them now.
PHILIPS, SACK YOUR RND TEAM, ESPECIALLY SOFTWARE STAFF, THEY WILL DRAG YOU DOWN!!
i have the exact same tv... just about 5 years now... never had a problem... i mean every once in a blue after like 30 hours of being on it will shut off on its own because it overheats... but it turns right back on... i use it as a computer monitor, tv, gaming station and between everyone in my house using it... i dont think it gets more than like 6 hours of off time a day for the past 4.5 years... i love the ambilight
Whenever the tv goes on the fritz, I unplug it for a minute, plug back and it goes back to normal. But just how "normal" is a tv you have to reset by unplugging it? Great craftmanship Philips!
It's called Electronics. Philips manufactured this same model over 100,000 times and of course a certain percent are going to fail. Also don't you know that all Electronic companies have their products manufactured all in the same places? Your wonderful Sony or Vizio has a higher percentage failure rate than Philips.
I have a 50" plasma philips , fucking thing wont even put out a picture now, not even 1 yr old, no warranty but is there something any one has tried with same prob plz plz post!

your chances of fixing this yourself are slim to none. get it to a tech.
next time stick with CRT - better picture, usually easier and far cheaper to fix. better for the environment

For some reason, Philips's quality control of their video boards has been lower then average lately.
