I bought a new Vizio 42' HDTV. I have satellite HD hook up. There is a thin line of static about 1/8 inch across the top of the screen on certain channels, mostly HD channels. Is it the TV, the sat or the HD?
I solved this by enlarging the picture size through setup, or the V-position.

The image processor - the one that generates the image from the data on the channel signal - has failed. You must replace the entire LCD controller board - the one that has the processor. Here it is

That white line (usually jagged) is actuallly part of the transmitted picture. However, you are not intended to see it because it is located in what is known as the 5% overscan area. Your TVs today are more than just cable ready... they are a versital, technology filled multimedia display. You can see that line because the screen size or wide mode you are using is intended for 1080p/24 signals. You have 0% overscan with this screen size setting. This allows you to see ALL of the picture, including portions of the picture the broadcaster did not intend for you to see. You can change your screen size using the Wide feature in the Setup menu. See pg.62 of your user manual for details and descriptions of the various wide modes.

I bought a new Vizio 42' HDTV. I have Cable HD hook up. There is a thin line of static about 1/8 inch across the top of the screen on certain channels, Is it the TV, or the HD? My Model is VS420LF, i think it is the same problem. Should I take it back before Waranty expires?
