Concave or bloated pictures on crt projection tv's are corrected with what's called a 'pincushion' adjustment. Look for it in the menu under video controls.

Convergence problems. FIrst try going into customer setup and seeing if convergence options are there and if adjustments can be made. unfortunately when the picture is bowed like that it idicates a complete loss of convergence which idicates one of three boards have gone bad.
