Flat screens on display on store shelves going bad

[centralradio]

Thanks for all the info Brian.As I was t BJs yesterday I looked at the sets closer and happen to take a couple snap shots while I was there of the bad sets.The two sets are Samsung .Thats what i figure as the stores pump up the sets or get special demo sets to sell sets.Also that explains one of the major customer complaints .How come my set looks like crap at home and it looked great in the store.". I looked in the back of the sets and it looks like they are feeding the sets through the HDMI cable.Also the dist box is hidden somewhere so I cant get a photo of it.Surprising the sets at Walmart looked great while I was there.

Looks to me like they lost the Y (Luminance) connection. Probably a cable / distribution problem.
