If you set your TV to Auto, then it will try to 'best guess' the correct picture shape based on what's displayed on screen. That's okay in the lab, but in the real world where there's too much changing then it's not so good.
The other thing could be the box and the TV channel you happen to be watching. If you have the box's aspect ratio set wrong i.e. to a different picture shape to the TV, then it will squash or stretch pictures.
Set your box to match the TV shape. The two main choices are Widescreen (16:9) or the old picture shape 4:3
Set your TV on a fixed aspect ratio: Either Widescreen if it is a 16:9 set, or Normal if it is a 4:3 set.
Watch some HD or other 16:9 programming. If you have pillarboxes on the sides it is likely that you are watching a 4:3 program that doesn't fit your TV's screen. When people upgrade from a "regular" TV to a "widescreen" model they changed the shape of the TV but didn't change the shape of 60+ years of TV programming, the only ways to force the "square peg" to fit the "rectangular hole" is to either chop off the top and bottom of the image or to stretch it. I highly recommend against either of these as "Stretch-O-Vision" is just wrong because it makes people look fat and turns car tires and other circles into short fat ovals.
WHAT TYPE OF CORD? bec different cords comes along w/ your tv and those cords have its own COLOR CODING & SHAPES, might as well check the ports at the back or side of your tv, & check where the color coding/shape of your cords will fit in.
Hi, It sounds convergence output chip failure problem. Replace convergence output chips on D Board of tv to fix the picture issue. If you have no experience of working in tv circuit boards then ask local tech to help you out. Thanks.
