View Full Version : Help large dull spot on screen

I Have a new Toshiba 51hx83 I've noticed a dull section in the upper center of the screen. It's about 6 inches in diameter and does not seem to be on the screen but behind it. the picture is perfect and the spot not visible when the tv is on. It's only seen when the tv is off. Is this some part of the inner works that I'm seeing and is this normal or does this seem odd. I have not called for repair as the picture is fine but have never seen something like this on other sets.
Anyone have any thoughts.

Are you sure you're not just watching a Will Ferrell movie and that's his head.

Since you have a rear projection TV there could be several problems. I believe all of them are correctable. It's possible you have a smudge on the screen, it could also be on the mirror which reflects the video onto the screen. It's also possible and more likely that you have a smudge on one of the red, blue or green projection lenses. I think the solution is a good cleaning.

Counting down the seconds before pix bursts into a rant about how that TV is obsolete, he needs to buy a new TV even if he's happy with it, cleaning the lens would be deadly, and a bunch of other unrelated nonsense about Obama, Hugo Chavez, Ayn Rand, and how this board victimizes him. :1:

Then somebody will point out that the original post dates back to 2003! :cool:

Sounds like Pix has Rodney Dangerfield Syndrome.

The only remedy is self-medication and removal of the large wooden suppository.

Someday he'll learn to play well with others-----someday.

Maybe the removal of the wooden butt stick would work, because he is already self medicating.

You're the one posting on an eight year old site, troll.
Just happy to be vindicated on my statements about Toshiba,
which couldn't build a reliable clock radio.
And this board does not "victimize" me, just two know nothings,
of which you are one and talky is the other.
You think stats can replace knowledge, of which you possess
little, and your stats are usually wrong. And pro shill talky,
can't figure out if he is a jr high student pretending to be some
big shot, or some big shot with the personality of a jr high student.:1:

Add trolling to the ever growing list of concepts that you don't understand. Have you been hanging out with SVI/Dustin_Broke (http://forums.audioreview.com/showpost.php?p=363804&postcount=27)? He seems just as lost as you.

Oh, and this "site" is more than 8 years old. Look at my "Join Date" indicator ... does that add up to more than 8 years? C'mon this is basic subtraction! I'm not asking you to fail again at something complicated ... y'know like multiplication! :lol:

How does a screen smudge from 2003, that doesn't even show up while a TV is on, "vindicate" any of the error-prone nonsense that you post on this board?

of which you are one and talky is the other.

Oh right, so that explains all the whining and crying about how you've been treated oh-so-unfairly by the mods and how others should be banned ... all the while launching personal attacks and flamebaiting threads, and outright lying about someone calling you a racist. You've been playing the victim, too bad you're no good at that either.


You think stats can replace knowledge, of which you possess
little, and your stats are usually wrong.

No, my stats are usually right, and they support the anecdotal points that I make. It's your grasp of basic math (pixel math sez that 44.1 x 2 = 192! (http://forums.audioreview.com/showpost.php?p=365706&postcount=43) :idea:) that's always been fleeting. The stats are what they, it's not my problem that you never got beyond multiplication. Pretty typical of you to attack the facts when your "knowledge" is proven wrong.


And pro shill talky,
can't figure out if he is a jr high student pretending to be some
big shot, or some big shot with the personality of a jr high student.:1:

You talk an awful lot about "jr high" and GEDs (http://forums.audioreview.com/showthread.php?t=36852). Does that reflect the limits of the educational experiences you can relate to? Or would high school or college stretch beyond what that brain of yours can absorb?

He did call me a "racist", implied that I COULDNT TELL ASIANS
APART, and some nonsense about asprin'
I am from the south, and any mention of being a racist to somebody will get you put on the floor, its really an insult.
WHAT IS puzzling is his post was completely over the top
and had nothing to do with the subject at hand.
Oh but he did not call me a "racist". SURE.
And I DID not call you a brainless KEYNESIAN socialist
looter with no understanding of economics whatsoever.
I WOULD NEVER DO THAT.:1:

Quote "stats" all you want, socialists always luv their "stats"
while their utopias are burning to the ground, and your "stats",
not being backed up with any real world experience,
are usually just as useless.

More insults from one who has probably had all of the common sense brainwashed out of him by a liberal education.
WENT to the UA if you must know, took three years of electronics
in high school, which , while obsolete, is about three years more than you had, and some physical laws are never obsolete,

AND HERE IS THE THREAD in question, implying that I think all
asians look alike, and some nonsense about aspirn.
AND OF COURSE HE CALLS ME "antagonistic while at the same time calling me racist, and of course I get the blame,
kinda like blaming an hispanic because he was called a name.
AND THE ENTIRE MESS was over a little truism that
anybody who has ever listened to a videodisc player can tell ya.
DOES THIS APPLY to high line audio players that also happen to play videodiscs? MAYBE NOT, i HAVE A dvda AUDIO PLAYER
that sounds so great I made it my primary player, after my best friends widow gave it back after he died.
A;LL OF WHICH DOESNT CHANGE the fact that , when it comes to playing CD, most videodisc players stink.
MOST...not all. :1:

Like this is supposed to impress me? "some college" means you didn't finish. If I were an actual 'Bama alum, I'd be breathing a sigh of relief, because I certainly wouldn't want your crazyarse ranting associated with my degree.

And you're the only one on this board constantly spewing references to GEDs, so I figured you had first-hand experience. :1:


and if you don't apologize immediately I will complain, not that it will do any good.

Go right ahead and run to the teacher. Anyone paying attention can see that the flaming on this board doesn't originate from my end.

Ambiguity? Bfalls was quite clear when he stated that he was not calling you a racist (http://forums.audioreview.com/365369-post18.html). Apparently, your reading comprehension can't decipher a rather simple and unambiguous paragraph.

The only ambiguity here is why you need to keep making up crap, so that you can keep these rants and flame threads going. Not getting enough attention at home?

If you think posting a self-portrait will deflect your comment and make you appear smarter, your wrong.

No, I honestly don't believe you're a racist. I also know I'm not. Try playing another card. The racist card just isn't working for you.

Before you dig yourself in too deep and get us all banned, just stick to what you know.

What is that again??
