Check to see it the closed captioning is on. You might also want to check out www.FreeFlatScreens.com/?r=10948674 for an opportunity to earn a free repalcement for this set with a little effort on your part.

When the TV has been on a while, a black box (screen) appears at the bottom 1/2 of the screen with the rest of the picture appearing in the top 1/2 and around the black box. If I turn the channel or adj the volume (basically hitting any button on the remote, it goes away, but comes back in a few seconds. Thought it might have to do with the TV/Video button, but doesn't help. Any suggestions? Thanks!
