Banding on Sharp Aquos

[tix666]

what game is this?

[robbydzwonar]

I found out that the panel needs to be replaced. I checked EVERY search engine known to man and NOT ONE has the info about how much it cost to REPLACE the the panel if your warranty expired though. NOT ONE!!

I would call that horizontal banding, since they go from left to right, not vertical, and I can see about 8-10 bands total from top to bottom

Anyone wo can't see the banding & clouding must be blind. Look at the foreground, not background, especially around the on screen cursor and you should be able to see it easy. It's like mine and it covers the entire screen.

I can see it straight away, I have the same problem with my Acer GD245HQ. It looks horendous, but unfortunately there's nothing you can do about it, except get a replacement or a refund and there's no guarantee that the new one will be any better.

i also have vertical banding on my 47" LG, only 2 days old. im going to return it asap. Is this on all lcd's or what?

[fluffyninjas]

if that problems what i think it is, you should be able to step back and the problem should be fixed, but i dont know for sure.

[lvivsk]

i have this problem too but its barely noticeable

I have a sharp 47 inch aquos and it has banding too, already replaced it once and my new one had banding as well. Don't buy from sharp.

I have Circuit City coming out today to look at, then replace mine. You can't see it much on your vid, but you are talking about the dark horizontal bars running across the middle of the screen right. Mine does the same. Also has some thin vertical banding.

Really only see it when you or whatever your watching moves up and down or left and right. That, and when it's just a straight dark image on screen.

two of my cousins have Vizio 42 inch 1080p LCDs and they have no problems in their picture quality.

one of my other relative has Sony 46 inch 1080p lcd and even that shows no banding/bars on it.

i got my sharp and within the 1st week or use i started noticing these bars and i was so dissappointed.

it is true that this issue may be in all lcd tvs but SHARP is the one that has the MOST banding issues. so be advised and dont hesitate to go for a brand like Vizio.

[dchhat007]

i have similar banding issues on my sharp. there is like a 3 inch horizontal bar that goes from lower left all the way to the lower right side of the lcd screen.

there are more vertical bars that i see and the are like 2 to 3 inches apart from each going from top to bottom.

the easiest way to tell if there are any bars (banding) on ur lcd is the very same way that is show on this youtube video.

i just got my sharp 52 inch and i never thought that sharp would be this bad.

Did your warrenty cover or is someone coming to fix that or can they even do anything, becasue I have the LC52D62U series and no bandings yet...

[karkulin1]

Sony LCD TVs have a clouding issue.

[Lee18902000]

all LCD TV got the same problem,which is because how LCD TV show pics,u can't change much on that.Go get plasma TV,which is better than LCD

[thebrakko]

i watched 2 times and ve seen no banding

[BoxerMuscleMilk]

haha true true, this guy's in cahoots...

[boulderbum7]

I see the banding (mine does that, too).

When he moves up and down, it looks like everything is in one-inch horizontal layers. It still seems like a nice TV.

[Himankz]

Are u on crak? Thats not banding you moron.

[thebrakko]

i agree

[rhoejaqueswift]

????

[turbozed]

not much banding on this one. if anything, there's maybe a horizontal dark band on the top edge of the display

[July212650]

[Misterdolph]

i you cant see the banding then maby you don't need a 1080p screen.

[kinglion1982]
