Samsung led tv "ghosting"

[Gouldy]

Good evening.

I have a Samsung 32 inch led tv that I use for the Xbox. Just recently I have noticed that the picture is "ghosting"

I've tried looking for information but I'm struggling to find any info on this for my model tv. So far I've messed about with the settings but to no joy. I also read that power cables and networking equipment could distort the picture so I moved the router, power cables and phone well away from the tv but it didnt improve the picture.

Can anyone suggest anything that I haven't already tried to resolve this ?

Thank you

With led LCD tvs it happens, it's expected and not much if anything can be done about it

I've had the tv about 2 years now and it's only recently started doing it.

Seems a waste to get rid, it was an expensive telly.

Is there no fix for it ?

I have 90% fixed this by messing with the settings on the TV.

In Samsung LED back lit TV's the low HDMI black level can distort the image and cause ghosting. I reduced this effect by raising the gamma and reducing the HDMI black content. The black content has an option to turn it on or off in one menu, the picture is best with it on but causes the ghost images. So I went into another menu where I can choose how "strong" the black level is.

The black level has 4 settings once tuned on in the other menu; off, dark, darker, darkest. I switched it to off, which fixed my issue (more or less, LED back lit TV's ghost anyway) and improved the picture quality.

If anyone else is having this problem PM me and I will talk you through the fix.

I had the same problem with my Samsung 40" LED tv. I was able to fix it for no money, all on my own. It took a little bit to get the picture back but it was a very easy fix. Watch this video on YouTube. I hope this helps.

Not really. Signs up to post once in a 2.5 year old topic, linking to his own video.

I thought this when I first saw it. Sign up on a car forum to promote a video about a telly in order to gain hits.

Basically scouring Google looking for people who might be interested in his video. Spam.
