Do you still have the original remote? If so there is a button that says "Pix shape" that will change your aspect ratio for you. If you are watching something in HD it should say "full". If it is analog it will say "normal" in 4x3 format. If you want it stretch hit it till it says "zoom 1" or "zoom 2". If you don't have the original remote I am not sure how you would change it. You can find them on ebay if you need one. Hope this helps.
Not really sure how much the tv weighs, but I know it is a bunch. I have 2 of these t.v.s. One I bought at Wal-mart and after about 6 months it started doing this green screen also. I would normally give the side of the tv a good wack and it would go back to normal for awhile. The other tv I bought from my neighbor who was moving for $25. The problem with this one was the "no picture but I have sound". If I wacked this one I could get the picture to come back on for a while, but it would go out again. Well just the other day I took the back off the "no picture" tv and was looking around. I noticed that the circuit board that is attached to the picture tube was loose. I pushed it back down on the tube and put it back together and the picture has been fine since. So I thought I would check the one with "green screen" issues and sure enough that circuit board was loose also. Pushed that one all the way back down and have not had any issues with that tv either. Hopefully that fixed my problem, I guess time will tell. Maybe it will fix yours also.
You need the original factory remote control. Do a web search for Sanyo. Go to their tech support. They can advise you about how to order a new remote for your set.
You have to find out the cost of the repair itself to make a decision.
I am not familiar with this model. I can speculate from experience going by your description.
If it is a CRT set and there is no picture the fault may be with the high voltage section, or a scan failure. It is also possible that the CRT itself is in failure.
Open it up and check to see it the circuit board attached to the tube is seated all the way down. Both of mine were not attached that well so I pushed them back down and have not had any problems since.
Some models of TV's can remember the user settings for each channel programed. Go in to the user menu for the video setup and see if the colour (chroma) is turned down.
