TV Displays white lines in letterbox when viewing a DVD disc
• Some DVD Discs are encoded with as much as 30% more video information to give the best possible picture quality.
With the DVD Player in the 16:9 picture format, the playback of this type of disc with extra video information, can
produce a number of small white lines in the upper portion of the black letterbox area. With some of these discs, this
situation is unavoidable and it does not require a service call.
