VCR or DVD player’s on-screen menus jitter
up and down.

Possible cause: Many VCRs and DVD players provide on-
screen menus at only half-resolution. These lower-resolution
graphics may appear to jitter up and down when the TV con-
verts them to high-definition graphics.

are rolling on the screen.

the PerfectColor balance.

quality).

Upgrade a Category 1 (unmarked) HDMI cable to a Category 2
HDMI cable.

The image from a computer appears dis-
torted when viewed on the TV.

picture from a computer because the correction process may
cause the edges of the image to be cut off.
