Bought a new Sharp 46" HDTV. On HD channels only, the picture is sharp but the reds are brown in color and cannot seem to get any red into the picture. Flesh tones look brownish and not lifelike. Have tried adjusting everything from minimum to maximum. On standard TV channels reds appear fine only the picture is not sharp. DVD colors and picture are fine. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

sounds like you have a cable connection problem make sure your tv is set to dtv signal in the menu screen. when you scan the channels should be displayed as 12.1 or 8.2 not just a single number if the digital channels are programmed correctly then change the cable coming into the tv from antenna making sure that it isnot crossing any power wires good luck and hope that i helped
Reboot ur HDTV box buy unplug and replug is an hour later,see if get the color back.If not,than ur Sharp tv Main Tuner signal board is dead that the problems,must replaced the Tuner signal board to solved this problems.
are you using componant inputs? if so check to make sure the red cable is plug all the way in . if younot using comp in then you have a digital board failure
You would need a High Definition cable package. I for instance have Comcast cable with the premium package and High Definition cable box. Also as far as watching DVD's and getting the best picture would be an HDMI cable from player to set. Hope it helps!
Contact Sharp to locate the nearest authorized Sharp servicer. Sharp Aquos servicers have to give Aquos TV top priority. Sharp provides very good and fast serice on these sets.
For any electronic component, use the best connection that is available.
Good = standard composite/rca/yellow, red, white Better = component cables (red, green, blue, white, red Best = HDMI (find them cheap at www.monoprice.com)
Do the lines only appear on the Cable box input? It maybe be a problem with your cable. Try to isolate the problem.
Do you see the lines on all sources such as your DVD player as well? If you press the MENU button on the Sharp remote, do the lines go through the menu as well? If yes, it is most likely a TV problem.
A bunch of lines sounds like it is most likely a problem with the connection with the LVDS cable, if not that, then a defective main board.
There isn't really much you can do about it now. Since the TV is less than a year old, I suggest calling Sharp to locate a local authorized service center.
