hi if you brought the tv in november might best to get in contact where you got it from ask them to send a tech out, you won't have to pay as it should be covered by the warranty good luck

LCD screen is damaged - repair probably very expensive.

it'll not be there when tv off because dead pixels do only show when back light of screen comes on, anyway if you still have a warranty then ask for them to check it out as it sounds like you need a new screen there mate

If the line of pixels is on the edges of your TV screen, then it is usually related to the signal feed to the TV and not the fault of the TV.
You can see thissemi-common issue with some TV antenna, Cable, and Satellite signals fed to the TV.
This will also happen if you are running a signal from one device through another device and then to the TV.
Example: Blu-Ray signal goes to the A/V amp and then over to the TV.
If the line of pixels is well away from the edge of the screen and is constant for all inputs (HDMI, Component, AVI) then this issue is the fault of at least one of the image drive boards. To trouble shoot this issue would require some TV repair tools and some knowledge of electronics.
I hope this information has helped you.
Good Luck.

Tries take out the HDMI cable and replug it back in the HDMI socket.Unplug the Directv power plug and replug,press the off/on botton on again to reboot the signal.Should be every back to normal.

You need to make sure that is has enough signal, if you have poor signal, you will get pixels(as oppesed to snowy picture on CRT televisions) make sure all plugs are plugged in correct, and try diff inputs from DirecTV to the Tv to ensure its not the HDMI input thats faulty. Good Luck.

Yes lcd screen is cracked. No way to repair, other than changing screen. Cheaper to buy new tv.

Unfortunately, you have to return the set.

You have a column of bad pixels. Take it back as fast as you can so you don't have to take it to a service center for repair.

hi

thanks

The best way is to contact your service provider and ask them to trouble shoot guide you, there should be a way to reset or diagnose the receiver or if you prefer go back to the place you bought it and ask for a replacement, You should still have the manufacturer's warranty, check that as well.
