Hello there, wonder if someone could help! When I'm running my 360 through my Sammy LE26R41B I can notice faint lines moving up and down the screen (especially on black screens) and was wondering if this is the case for anyone else? I've tried the VGA port on my PC and it works perfectly (no lines at all moving up and down) but this is the second VGA cable and still the same problem, don't get it when using component either, slightly annoying but if the port was faulty sure it would do it on black screens when I use it as my PC monitor. All of my other things such as freeview work perfectly, so I'm finding it a bit odd! I've only had the TV for a few weeks too.

Anyone got any ideas? Thanks!

PS this is the official VGA cable.
 
Hey, I'm using the official VGA cable for the 360 with no additional speakers etc and using a normal VGA lead for my PC. I've submitted an RMA with the company I bought it from because it's puzzling me, I've tried two official cables and two Xbox's in my house and still the same, but it works fine on the PC, very odd problem.
 
Also the lines arn't black (maybe I explained badly) but you can see faint "lines" moving up and down on the darker screens, very faint white I would say it's very odd.
 
yeah I was thinking it could be the scanning lines perhaps, my bro has an LCD Samsung 19" LCD and it's fine on his though, it does seem odd, I may give my 3rd party VGA cable a shot and see if that makes a difference.
 
Sorry I meant I've RMA'ed the TV. I know my Xbox 360's arn't faulty. TV is being collected tomorrow :)
 
Whilst sat here thinking I actually do remember having a few odd issues a few days into using it, when I was using the 360 via VGA sometimes it would randomly change the channel to my freeview on the scart connection, this happened twice, I'm thinking my VGA port is faulty.
 
Just received my replacdment! The online stores RMA turnaround is excellent, I sent it back on friday and received the new one today, must say I'm impressed! Will test it out soon :)
 
hmm it still doing the same on this new set, everything else is fine. This is really puzzling me! Even plugged it into the wall. I'm going to move the set to my mums room and try it there, I do notice they appear to disappear when I set it to 1280x720, but when running it at 1360 x 768 they appear? Very odd, I know it's not the TV now at least.

I have to say I would have been very surprised had swapping the tv worked.

Can I ask wh you dont just stick with componant output, as you know this works ok?

I personally think its some kind of interference - even though I have no idea what.

Component sucks in comparison..honestly. Anyway It works fine at 1280 x 720 on VGA so I'm sticking with that :)
