Horizontal bars? It sounds like the digital board is the culprit as these tvs had a few problems. The good news is the company wants to retain customers so call 1-800-SAMSUNG prompts 2, 1, 3, 1 and be very persistent. Get past
the first levels and explain the situation. You wouldn't be the first person out of warranty to
be offered a newer model for the cost of shipping with their company, otherwise unless you are electronically skilled, your best bet is to take it to a shop to get diagnosed for sure on what the problem is as it may be a couple other things too but the digital board is the best bet from your description.

Try to press these buttons
Mute + 1 + 8 + 2 + Power.
Your TV set should now say “Loading Factory”.
Browse down to “Option” then press Enter (or the right cursor button).
Check the cabling between the DVD player and the screen first. Next make sure that both the DLP50 and the DVD player are not in confined spaces where air flow is blocked. This could be a heat issue, too. Im banking the "working after unplugged for 5 min" to heat. How long have you had the DLP 50?
Hello sir.
the problemis related to the AV IC parallel .
A capacitor was warming up every time, this time its blown u shud replace it .
a soledring skills and hot air is required!!
plz just use our repair stores guide and locate the nears tech to u and i do advise u to do not take the risk of taking apart the unit cuz u would cause much more damage and u might get electrecuted!!
If its really a nice tv id take it in and have it repaired before it can get any worse than it is now.i dont know what the cost would be but if you feel the tv i worth it id take it in as soon as i could and get it repaired
Hi,
Thanks for Choosing FixYa!!!
It seems to be problem with the DVD Player and not with the TV.
Unplug the DVD cable from the TV and try connecting it back again.
Hope this Helps!!! Please rate my Response!!!

For further clariforcation, I'd like to add the following:
The problem is with both my WII as well as my DVD/VCR player which both have been working for over 2 years. This issue started 2 months ago. I have uplugged both and reconnected with no luck. Simply unplugging the power from the TV and waiting for approx. 5-10 mins use to work, but now that is a hopeless fix. I have changed my AV ports, ie. used AV1, 2. and 3 and still no such luck.
My connections are as follows:
Onkyo 7-1 surround system
Verizon HD/DVR
connected via HDMI to TV from HD/DVR
Thanks Ronnieh49,
Are you suggesting that there is not plausiable fix within my realm other than a costly visit to the repair shop? If that is my only option, then I must weigh my ROI for this TV. As with a doctor's opinion, I'm always open for other suggestions.
