So the noise you are seeing in the dark not hooked up __does__not__exist__ when you are watching something. I suppose if you were really worried you could terminate the unused inputs but I suspect that having a single input connected wipes out the problem.

I'd love to advertise my tale of woe, but the capacity to resist our base urges is what differentiates us from TV Repair men. I wish you great high-definition widescreen joy =) Speaking as a man who has weathered the storm of imperfection on a standard CRT widescreen TV which cost both an arm and a leg (The leg was in dropping 55Kgs onto a left foot, so can be argued is not directly Philips’ fault) – I sympathise.
