Perhaps letting it warm up a bit before watching something will help, but I'm not sure.

Hey! This actually falls outside my purview since our community is self-moderated. As you can tell by his reputation, OldTurkey is a long-time member and he’s looking out for the community.

Downvotes aren’t personal, they’re reflective of the quality of answer. Your answer should contain all the information a user needs to solve a problem or at least the steps towards a fix, not just a guess.

Technical Difficulties rest assured I am not targeting you one bit. I am just not in agreement with your answers and find that most of them are at best comments, at worst they are guesses. If you do not know the answer and you do have to guess, then your answer is not helpful. If you have to add that "but I'm not sure" then you are better off not to answer the question.

You can always regain your rep points by a. making your answer useful b. making it a comment or c. deleting it.

BTW kid I am of the generation that made the term dude popular so it is okay if you address me as old dude, but not as dude.

....Ok now that was actually funny. But seriously, stop stalking me. I'm new to things around here and very insecure. I have pride and maybe not the best person to be friends with.

Saju Thomas that looks like failed gate drivers on your panel. Post some images of all of our boards with our question. That way we can see what you see. The gate drivers are part of your LCD panel....
