4:3 vertical lines curves

Archived from groups: alt.tv.tech.hdtv (More info?)

Hi,
I just bought a Samsung dlp tv (HL-P4674W).
When I view something in 4:3 the left and right black vertical lines are not
straight.
The have a small curve. I was wondering if anyone knows if this is normal.
Thanks

That seems to be common in the wide screen models most noticeable when
viewing 4:3 material. The term is convergence and can be adjusted, usually
in the service menu.

J.C. may I professionally ask how to converge an DLP SET??

That is specifically why I posted my initial reply, actual case symptoms and
rectification per the help of the manufacturers respective service technical
lines. I have done quite a few DLP and LCD Rear Projection Monitors devices
in this manner and in almost every case resolved the symptom to the
sastification of the consumer.

a technician came today. he put a signal generator in one of the tv's inputs
and after he looked at the curves for a minute he said that this is
acceptable on a dlp TV and can not be adjusted.
I am kind disappointed that this is expected on a $3.500 TV
