Smitty,
If the pixels all work with the flat color fields, then it's not a dead-pixel problem. But it also seems strange that a scaler or connection problem would show up as a particular dark or colored spot on your screen.
Of course there a a dozen areas to check from the actual screen (insects) to different video (VHS, DSS, DVD) and computer inputs. Using different cables.
It's always a process of elimination, first determining what isn't the problem and narrowing it down to what the issue really is.
