Just hooked up an InFocus Screenplay 7210 and I am getting a thin vertical green line just to the left of the picture. It isn't very noticeable in 16x9 mode as it is off the screen, but if I switch to 4x3, it is very noticeable and annoying. I have searched the literature and the internet but can't seem to find anything that mentions this. Any idea what I should do to correct it?

Focusing? Could it have convergence issues being a digital type?
Have you checked the boards at AVS? Pro ISF calibration?

Definitely can't be convergience because it is a single chip DLP. 3LCD technolgoies sometimes have the 3 LCDs laid out not perfecty aligned, but a single chip DLP can't have this happen.

But, it definitely is weird... I guess I am wondering if this is only an issue with TV or if it a universal issue with all sources that you use. It kind of sounds like an overscan issue - as in the overscan of the video needs to be bumped up just a bit so that you lose a tiny bit of the image, which may include that green line you are seeing.

Errrrrr.... really hard to say though.

Absolutely right on this one. I thought about it afterwards but didn't change:eek:

I am racking my brains what could cause a green line. I wonder if a grounding issue could do this to just one color? Most likely not. All the grounding issue I have seen are while lines of various types.
