right side of tv picture "bowing" or "zoomed in"

RoyalMarine

i have a 32" tv, and a few months ago i started to notice the right side of the picture was "bowing". its like 6 - 10 inches of the screen is zoomed in.

it only happens on scart 1.

however, in the house i live in now, we have a 42" bush tv in the sitting room.
when watching tv through co-axial cable, its happening on that tv too.

anyone else see this problem before?
anyone know a way to fix it?

any help at all would be appreciated!

cheers

is there any common piece of hardware used with both TVs? sounds pretty odd to me, almost like the horizontal keystone you get on a projector!

are you sure you're not living in the matrix?

Has your neighbour attached one of these to the other side of the wall?

wollymammoth, no common piece of hardware connected or used with both tv's.

lu Tze, nothing has changed in the neighbour hood recently, and as of this morning, its happening on the left side of the tv aswel as the right side now

I find it hilarious bizarre that this would happen the same person, on different TVs, at different locations (if i read correctly), where there is no common item (ie. dvd player, games console, vhs , sky box) that could be causing an interference of this sort. You sure you don't have a van de graaff generator in teh corner as some sort of art piece?

sorry, i know i'm not being helpful

you've got either one of two problems from what i can see. 1) signal problem, or 2) tv problem. It's just a process of elimination then, so, use a different TV source / cable. Is it on all tv input sources. All tv channels? try the tv in a different location. Try a different tv in that location..

thanks cuddlesworth, im going to swop tv's around and see what happens.

and no, there's no generator running at the moment
