Initially I thought it was fine....but when you look at an HD channel really close you could see the same pattern movement of static in the background lightly. The tech went into some sub menu' and did a rest and looked at a few other things on the menu's. Pulled up the vertical bars, colors and some other stuff I hadn't seen described on the forums. He had 3 or 4 Samsungs with the same symptoms as mine last year he repaired. He said the light engine and the md board were one unit. He told me if it happens again to call Samsung even if it’s out of warranty and tell them my problem. He said for a couple customers he's had in my position that they were willing to cover the parts and I would then only need labor.
