Comcast DCT3416 - 2" Black Bar
I'm getting a 2" black bar down the right side of my LCD TV. Unless I'm watch 16:9 HD programing the bar is there... sometimes it is green.
My Samsung cannot stretch out that far and I've adjusted the display menu (Moto DCT3416 - power and menu) to 4:3 override = stretch. I called Comcast and they said the DVR box had gone bad and I needed to exchange it... after standing in line for 40 minutes and getting another DCT3416 the same black bars appear. My TV is a Samsung LN46A650. Any suggestions? T |

Comcast DCT3416 - 2" Black Bar
Yea.. I know what you're talking about, there is an option to "fit" the picture to your screen but it seems to do nothing.
On my TV I can move the screen but there are limitations and I can't move it enough to remove the black bar. I talked to another Comcast techie and she said this is a problem and for me to request a new model number box. She said they are getting ready to replace the older DCT3416's... After standing in line for 40 minutes last time... I've scheduled an on-site and they are suppose to be here between "2pm and 4pm"... we'll see what happens... I'm leary of Comcast. T |
