Guys

I've just bought a Samsung LE26R51B from a friend to use with my xbox 360 through the official component cable. The TV is just under 18 months old.

It's exhibiting some red colour bleed. Red has an ever so slight pink/cyan tint to it. The colour bleed is most noticable with red text on black/grey backgrounds. The 'Not ready' in Forza 2's lobby is just about readable (almost ghosted). When using the digital speedo in Forza, once the revs hit the redline portion all definition is lost.

What settings do I need to change to get this looking as sharp as it can?

Can someone else with the same tv have a look at their forza lobby and tell me if theirs is the same?

thanks
 
Just done that using a vga cable.

I had to play with H and V frequencies but got it looking pretty much pin sharp. Black text on red background and vice versa is readable but not amazing. Huge improvement over the 360 though.
 
From a quick google try these settings:

Mode - Movie
Dynamic contrast - off
Brightness sensor - off
Contrast - 90
Brightness - 55
Sharpness - 10
Colour - 70
Colour Tone - Cool 2
