by going into the box menu and changing the hdmi setting from ycc to rgb, the green line will go away.
Been there, done that. So with the different color space I get the "beveled" or shifted image on the left side of the display. For now I am using component cables, but it doesn't make sense to go from digital (source material) to analog (component) then back to digital (1080P TV). These are work arounds, not fixes - the problem didn't exist before the IMG update back in January (for my VHO)

You are going from digital to analog as it is anyways.

when your CRT tv gets the signal from its digital inputs (hdmi)it has to convert it to analog which is what a CRT tv uses anyway. when u use component cables from the box to the tv the tv does not need to convert it to analog but passes it without more conversion.

I could be wrong here but i think thats how it goes in the crt hdtv world.

Comment addressed to the wrong poster. My TV is a 1080P LCD (Sharp) not CRT - therefor digital
