I suggest you try over at avforums In the CRT section as they will be able to help you much better I should imagine.

It's an LG ............ you must expect crap I'm afraid

Don't even think about contacting their Customer Services ....... utterly useless, unfair and pathetic!!

My best advice? give LG a WIDE berth!!

Sorry that doesn't help you, but if it stops someone buying LG then it will, at least, save them from a shambolic company.

First check : make sure the Sky box is set on RGB not composite - makes the world of difference

A poorly shielded scart lead can pick up noise and crosstalk - this manifests itself as loads of random little dots - very noticable on the sky guide (NOT square blocks! - that's digital compression, not noise). Can happen on a £1.99 lead or a dodgy £50 lead.

Turn off all adaptive picture settings (sometimes these can cause more problems than they cure). And mess around 'till you've found a setting that works.
