Horizontal Lines On Photos Taken Using Liveview on Canon 6D

[stf]

Hey everyone!
I feel the need to update this concern that another forist posted some time ago.
I could'nt understand how he managed to fix it then. Does anyone know how can I get rid of those black bars/horizontal lines?
I post here what he wrote back then, I have the very same issue:

"I feel like an idiot asking this. It seems like I should be able to figure this out on my own, since I'm a long time Canon user, but for the life of me, I can't figure out why I am getting two horizontal lines, like video safe lines, embedded into the photo at the top and bottom.
They are not there when I use the viewfinder, which is why I haven' noticed until now. Several test shots later revealed the same result, and I cannot find a way to remove them."

Thanks so much!!!!

Those are video snapshots, they appear when in VIDEO mode, not live view. Once you import the photo they disappear, but will appear in camera.

The bars appear on the lcd screen so you can see what actual area is in the video. They depend on the format you select.

Which format makes them "dissapear" from the lcd screen? sometimes is easier for me to make focus using liveview+magnifying glass so those lines really bother me when composing the image. Is it possible?

Thank you both for your answers!

It appears you're not doing what you think you're doing. Instead of using LiveView in Still mode for focus, you're in Video mode and taking snapshots. You should be able to figure out solution now.

Liveview is enabled by a button not the dialing wheel.

Ok, didn't mean to upset anyone.
There's no need to be aggresive Lichtgestalt. I was simply excited to use the camera and after RTFM I confused that silly video/liveview option. No one forces you to answer a question you consider dumb. Just move along.
Thanks for the patience to the other forists though.
I got it now, thanks Dkocher for the advice! Everything's fixed and working great.
Appreciate your answers!!
