I would not be concerned so much with the heat. LCD TVs do get HOT. Not hot enough to burn, but hot enough to feel the heat from about 1 -2ft away.

Blue patches may be an issue. I suggest contacting westinghoues about that.

Hookup the comcast hd box to my new lcd tv?

You can use either component (Red/Green/Blue video and red/white audio) or HDMI cables to connect the Comcast HD box to your TV. Most times you can get these cables for free at the Comcast front counter.

Large bluish blub in center of screen.

You have a bad light engine. The part number is UX22201DR if it is only a 50V500 model. If the model is 50V500A or 50V500G then the part number wil change.

Color Alignment

the most common problem when the tv felt is the shadows all over the screen (maybe the tv didnt show it imm but looks like now is there the problem)
second:there is a circuit in the tv that works when the tv turns on every day. prevents the tv showing shadows on the screen.
the answer is this: if that system that prevents shadowing is working then the CRT is broken and say bye to the TV. But if the expert tech can make sure the D' gauss system is not working and can repair it then you get tv back.

It seems as though you are using the component video inputs. If you are then more than likely you have bad connections between your peripherals(dvd, xbox, etc.) and your TV. Just make sure that all the connections are tight/pushed on to the terminals all the way and that you don't have bad cables.

Screen shows blue patches on white also red lines on dark colour

Replace the video board, if you can find one. Letting it cool down will not help any.

Blue patches on my samsung lcd Hd 46 inch rear projection tv all the time seem to be getting worse. What is it and how can I fix, last time it cot me $698 to fix another part.

Uh Oh! blue screen of death. Your light engine has warped a little from overheating and is distorting the picture.

Make sure it is getting good ventilation and the fan filters are clean.

My suggestion to you is to get on the phone with hitachi and start complaining, then keep complaining until they agree to pay for it. You may have to get the problem diagnosed by a pro before they agree to pay for it though.
Hope ya fix it!

Red distortion

it sounds like your IR board is going out, its easy to replace and is inexpensive usually about 10.00 plus tax and shipping, and very easy to install, its one of the few parts you can buy for these models outside of the 479.00 dollar control box.
