Hi all

This might just be me and my middle aged eyes but has anyone noticed a change in picture quality from their V6 recently?

Up until the middle of last week, the quality seemed fine but then both myself and the other half noticed there was a change in skin tone and the white balance. Whites seemed to "glow" with almost a halo and skin tones became very pale. I have tried making adjustments on my tv's picture settings but I cannot get it quite right to where it was.

I thought it might have been my TV at first (although it's almost new and I hadn't made any changes to the settings since I did a proper calibration when I set it up) but I checked other inputs (i.e. inbuilt Netflix/Amazon apps and my Apple TV etc) and they are still perfect and as they always have been, so my suspicion was that it was the V6 box.

I replaced the HDMI cable with a new one but that hasn't made any difference.

So, before I start a proper recalibration of the tv, I just wanted to see if anyone else has experienced similar?
