PLEASE, PLEASE I LOVE A NICE PICTURE AND IF ANYONE CAN HELP ME WITH ADVICE AND HELP IN TWEAKINGS THINGS UP THRU THE SERVICE MENU, I WILL BE DEEPLY GRATEFUL. I KNOW HOW TO ACCESS THE SERVICE MENU, BUT I CAN'T GET ANYTHING TO CHANGE. HOW DOES ONE CHANGE VALUES ? MY REMOTE'S CONTROL THINGY DOES NOT SEEM TO WORK IN SERVICE MODE. I KNOW I SOUND LIKE A NEWBIE, CUS I AM. BUT I DON'T MIND LEARNING. PLEASE ANY HINTS ADVICE, LINKS ETC LURKING SOMEWHERE IN YOUR MIND, MAY BE VALUABLE TO ME, SO PLEASE HELP IF YOU CAN..
Does the WS500 have a 'flash focus' or manual convergance menu? These menu's are present on my 510 ( so I'm not sure about the 500 ), but they are intended to fix the issue you are having.
No..I have not changed anything yet on the SONY KP-51WS500 . I downloaded the excellent articles by A. Haukap. However, I did not change anything yet. I called the dealer and guess what: He is sending someone over to change the 3 projectors (Red, Green and Blue). Should I let him? The problem is: I really cannot get a nice natural pink skin tone anymore. I used to be able to get a really nice pictue. now, it is kind of a muddy brownish "pink" color. Not great but setting the picture modes to a warm setting helps slightly. I cannot help feeling something is not working like it used to. dealer said my model has had some problems with the tubes and it is a known issue...Anyway, I really appreciate it guys for any help or input you can throw my way. Thanks a million all. P.S Does anyone out there know where I can get info. on accessing the service menu for my 2nd DVD player? A Pioneer DV-563A universal player? Happy viewing guys.
You don't happen to know of any similar groups anywhere for the WS520 series of sets do you? I can't find any, and I'm looking for tweaks and service manual data. Thanks.
