On one of my televisions a black box occasionally appears and blocks much of the bottom half of the screen. What could be causing this?

Sounds like a problem with your TV.

Since my initial post, I discovered that it has occurred on other televisions.

It is a large rectangle that goes up almost half-way up to the middle of the screen. It is not in the horizontal scroll for channel changes.

Good idea. I checked, but closed captioning is not on.

RE: it is not in the horizontal scroll for channel changes.
I am not asking if it appears in preview pictures. I was asking if it was the same size as the info block - starts at the bottom - goes one third up the screen & is full side to side.
Your saying that it goes half way up the screen but not full across?? Can you take a picture??
What happens if you press info when it is there??
Is there any pattern of channels?? If you change channel does it go away??

It isn't happening right now. I will check on what you suggested when it happens again.
