Looking for Answers about samsung 58" Class 550 Series 1080p Plasma HDTV?

The only way to fix is to buy a new TV warranty wont cover, sorry, and to fix will cost you a new one.

Factory settings are designed to draw showroom attention. Go to CNET's review of the set and input their settings. You will see a remrkable improvement in picture quality.

The PN58C550 does actually have a 1-tuner PiP system. 1-tuner systems only allow for one cable connection to be shown at a time on the screen. In order to connect it up, you will need a hard line going into the TV (cable coax) and an active secondary connection (HDMI, component, PC). To activate it up, either head into the TV's menu or click the Tools button on the remote control.

Again, you will need both a coax connection and a secondary input connection in order to properly activate and view PiP on your set. If your option is grayed out, this means that one of the required connections is not active and connected properly.

There are two different kinds of active burn in protection features on the Samsung Plasma TVs. The first one is PixelShift (PixelShift can be adjusted on or off and allows for intensity level adjustments). This feature will basically move all your pixels, uniformly, a predetermined amount of pixel spaces in order to prevent a pixel from being lit in a specific pixel space for too long. However, if ghosting does occur, you can use the other anti-burn in feature, called Scrolling, to help refresh the screen. The Scrolling feature will "scroll" a gradient of black and white across the screen to help eliminate the ghosting, if any, that has accumulated on your panel. Both of these features can be found in the Picture Options section of the TV's menu.

Turn the screen off-use the eco menu.

I would be happy to help you out with this. In order to change the aspect ratio (screen size), you will want to head into the TV's menu, then to the picture sub-menu. Once there, head into the "Picture Options" option. Within that option, you will see the "Size" adjustment. Clicking into that will allow you to change the picture size of the screen. If you are using a set top box or cable box, please also adjust the aspect ratio on the set top box.

What are your sources?

I have a wireless Lan Adapter Model WIS09ABGN can this work on my TV PN58C550?

Some DIRECTV receivers have trouble with this issue. Reset the receiver and try again. Make certain your blu-ray player and TV are set to send and receive 1080p material. Read your manuals and try again.

Read and follow the instructions in the manual.

Purchase or borrow a calibration disc. I recommend Digital Video Essentials, HD Basics.

Please check if you have enabled any MAC Address based access to Internet in your router. If that is the case then, you may have to find the MAC address of your TV and enter in the router and see if that resolves.. good luck !

wrap the cord around the frst half of the core once before you close it. just google image ferrite core and you`ll see what i mean

Although this model does not have direct access to Samsung Apps (like Netflix, Pandora or YouTube), it can access App content through a 2010-11 Samsung BD player (the blu-ray player will handle the Internet content processing). Unfortunately, I currently do not have any information on Samsung Apps or Smart TV being added to the 2010 and earlier models that do not offer said features.

Thank you for the opportunity to assist you,

As a matter of fact, the C550 will offer both a 3.5mm RCA audio output (use a "Y" 3.5mm to RCA RED/WHITE cable) and an optical output. Both of these outputs are located on the back of the TV, right next to each other.

In order to access content from a USB device, first connect the deivce to the USB port on the TV. Then set the device to Mass Storage mode. If the device is compatible with the TV, it should allow for media playback. The device in question must meet all of the following requirements:

1. It must offer a Mass Storage Mode
2. It must be formatted in a FAT file system
3. It must not contain any DRM content. DRM content is not supported by the Samsung TVs
