No it looks like you need a new screen.
At only 7 months old have you any cover for repairs.

SOURCE: 50" LG Plasma - Thin red vertical line in middle of screen

I work for a auth LG service center and each time I have had this symptom we had to either change what called the T_CON control board or the Plasma display panel itself. You need to cocntact LG @ 800-253-0000 report your problem and they will find a service center in your area you should have 1 year warranty parts and labor.

SOURCE: I have a LG 50PX1D-UC plasma TV with a black vertical line

You could have a Driver Board that has a loose connection or a Ribbon Cable that has a intermittent connection to the Plasma Panel, or a defective Plasma Panel. Either one could cause the problem and I would recommend only a Qualified Service Person to check it out.
Here is LG's Customer Service Number. 1800-243-0000. They could direct you to a Local Service Facility.
I hope this helps,

SOURCE: LG LCD TV - Buzzing Sound and Faint Horizontal Lines

From your description, the sound you are hearing is the inverter(s) that drive the back light for the LCD screen/module.
The inverters mounted on the back side (one lower right and one left side) of the LCD screen/module. They are under the sheet metal cover/shields.
The inverters are going out and or the LCD screen/module is going bad too.
That LG TV has only a 1 year on parts and labor from the date of purchase, but you could call LG and ask for their help for such a new TV. They might do it under a warranty, for little or no cost to you.
I hope this information has helped you.
Good Luck.

My blaupunkt 32inch flatscreen yust flicks on showing (looks like its ink coming out of crack in screen yust for a bit of a second than it goes dark)

Based on your description, it sounds like your Blaupunkt 32-inch flatscreen TV may have a damaged screen. The ink-like appearance and brief flicker followed by a dark screen are indicative of a physical crack or damage to the screen. It is possible that the TV was able to function normally after the fall, but over time the damage to the screen worsened and is now causing the issues you are experiencing. Unfortunately, this type of damage is typically not repairable and would require a replacement of the entire screen, which can be costly. If the TV is still under warranty, you may be able to get it repaired or replaced through the manufacturer. Otherwise, you may need to consider purchasing a new TV if the cost of repairing the screen is prohibitive

How do you get the dual play to work with Wii.

for dual play to work the device must be outputting 1080i or 1080p
and less and the tv will not allow you to select 3d dual play mode
sadly the nintendo wii only outputs 480p
some people think that with a HDMi adaptor for the wii you can get it to work but my friend bought the adaptor and it still doesnt work, cos the wii still cant output 1080p
perhaps the new wii u will be able to

Nintendo wii

(befory you read this, please excuse my leinghyness)
Well,

If you take apart the Wii very carefully, you might be able to get the game out (which you will most likely never be able to play again because the clicking noise is most likely the disc being rubbed against something) without causing damage to the Wii. Doing this is risking causing damage to your Wii (and yourself if you are too dumb to un-plug it.) so if you have bought your Wii less than a year ago,

Nintendo of America Inc. ("Nintendo") warrants to the original purchaser that the hardware product shall be free from defects in material and workmanship for twelve (12) months from the date of purchase. If a defect covered by this warranty occurs during this warranty period, Nintendo or a NINTENDO AUTHORIZED REPAIR CENTER will repair the defective hardware product or component, free of charge. The original purchaser is entitled to this warranty only if the date of purchase is registered at point of sale or the consumer can demonstrate, to Nintendo's satisfaction, that the product was purchased within the last 12 months.

if you purchased your Wii more than a year ago,


SERVICE AFTER EXPIRATION OF WARRANTY
Please try our web site at www.nintendo.com or call the Consumer Assistance Hotline at 1-800-255-3700 for troubleshooting information and/or referral to the nearest NINTENDO AUTHORIZED REPAIR CENTER. In some instances, it may be necessary for you to ship the complete product, FREIGHT PREPAID AND INSURED FOR LOSS OR DAMAGE, to the nearest service location. Please do not send any products to Nintendo without contacting us first.
