I have a Samsung HLS 5679W LED DLP 56" screen tv we purchased about seven months ago online that has just developed white lines across the screen in a jagged form. Portions of the picture are also broken up and duplicated across the screen. Here's an image of what the picture looks like. I took it with my cell phone but it looks actual. 
Please help! Thanks. Dave
What you are sseing is a convergence problem within the light engine of the set. This is not repairable in teh field other than replacing the light engine part. Since this unit is less than one year old, it should be covered under warranty. From the looks of it, one of the LCD panels has shifted internally. Call for warranty service and indicate that the light engine has a problem. With luck, the service company will show up with the part in hand. Replacement should not take more than an hour or so.

Hello sir
im thinking the set has a bad engine
it is expensive i have never done one i think it's all one part.
i would call a tech to even confirm my guess....

and yes, its only 7 months old and samsung TV's come with 3 years warranty. If you schedule a repair from samsung service centre, a tech from samsung will come and repair it for FREEEEE

Does anyone have a good educated guess as to the solution.

Thank you for your assistance with this. I feel confident you have provided the right solution and I will call Samsung today. You have saved me time and aggrevation. Thanks again, much appreciated.
TV plays fine for about 45 minutes, then the picture begins to go haywire. It looks like a bad video card issue if it was a PC, with the picture first with snow, then with jagged lines, then with dividing into quadrants and freezing with pink separator bands. Turning the TV off and waiting a few minutes solves the problem, only to have it start all over again within another 30 minutes.
