    Why do DVDs look bad on my Sony Flat Panel TV?
    • T
      tracyleeSep 14, 2025
      If certain programs on DVD or other digital sources display a loss of detail on your Sony Flat Panel TV, this is due to the digital compression of the source content used by certain digital broadcasts and DVDs which may cause your TV’s screen to display less detail than usual, or cause artifacts (small blocks or dots, pixelations) to appear on your screen. These signal compressions are more visible and are dependent on the clarity and resolution of the TV.
