I have a Philips 42" 9631 and have been very happy with the TV. I have noticed that during black or darker scenes on SD -- during credits or space scenes from "Star Wars" for example -- that I can see vertical columns of blackish and purplish colors, 8-10 across the screen. I think back to the vertical color/tint calibration done during DVE where I wasn't sure I was doing it correctly and wonder if this is why this shows up.
FWIW, I do NOT see this slight mis-coloration during a DVD playing of the same scenes.
Does anyone else remember seeing this? Is it likely to be a color, tint, contrast, or brightness issue?
I can live with it, it's only during SD pictures so I'm not that concerned and it doesn't jump out at you as a glaring defect. A sharp eye notices it, that's all, and watching 480p progressive DVD's and HD viewing has now given me that extra sharpness.
