My IDTV panny plasma shows one row of white lines from the top left to the top middle of the screen when watching freeviewHD TV3 and TV3+1. I'm assuming (hoping its not my telly) it's a TV3 thing at the moment.

Anyone else seeing this?

Cheers,

Shane

It is a TV3 issue and only occurs occasionally on the DTH service. Can't confirm things for DTT at the moment.

Generally known online as OpenMedia, now working for Red Hat APAC as a Technology Evangelist and Portfolio Architect. Still playing with MythTV and digital media on the side.

Uhhh, forgive my lack of terminology - DTH, is that another way of saying satellite...? I'm just using a UHF aerial to get HD

DTH = Direct To Home = Satellite

I get this on TV3 +1 all the time via satellite.
TV3 is fine all the time.

Opinions are my own and not the views of my employer.

Do you have overscan turned on or off? If off, then lines are part of the picture that is normally not seen as broadcasters seem to assume that all TVs operate with an overscan.
