What your experiencing is most likely a ground loop. If your tv has a 3 pronged outlet plug, try using whats called a cheater plug, which converts a 3 prong to 2. The lines will probably go away. There are other fixes as well. Do a search for ground loops and see if anything comes up.
Mitsubishi DLP problem
If anyone knows what this might be...
I am getting Horizontal lines that run up or down the screen of my Mitsubishi DLP TV. This only happens on any input other than HDMI. With an HDMI source(be it the cable box or dvd player or laptop) the picture is clear. I have tried 3 component sources, 2 dvd player and a cable box, and all display same problem. The effect is similar to a magnetic interference you would get with a tube television if you place something that causes magentic field distortion(unshielded speaker for example).
I suspect the processor or converter or chip or whatever it is called in the DLP tv, is going, or on its way.
Any thoughts?
Thanks
