I find that I have to make a few adjustments to the settings depending on the game he plays. He's 14, so he really doesn't care as much as I do how the picture looks......
One thing that was REALLY peculiar is when I got the set home and started setting everything up, I flipped the switch to get crosshairs for alignment, and smoke started pouring out from underneath
. I shut the set down, flipped the switch back and forth a couple times (it was sticky), turned it on, been fine ever since. Don't know why, don't know how, but it's had well over 20 hours of play since and everything's been fine.
