How is this problem called? colors disaligned horizontally

Post by kamillebidan »

Hello, I have a PVM 20M4. When displaying the menu, I see that the whites are (horizontally) preceded by a red "pixel" and followed by a blue pixel. Is it a misalignment of the colors?
I do not know what I should google for. I link a picture.

Yeah if that's bad corner convergence you should see most other sets. :P

That's really not bad at all! If you don't know what you're doing and start messing with the convergence rings, you'll make a mess of things quickly.

All you have to do is adjust the H-STAT knob on the neckboard.

He can try but in all likelihood it will just shift the convergence issues to another part of the screen. The issue looks so minor in his case, unless it bugs the heck out of him he's probably better off leaving it alone imo. It's always about compromise.
