Has anyone tried to hook up their new S10K to the PC for display or console like PS2, PS3? Want to know how is the picture quality

i hook it using DVI to HDMI converter, PQ was great during movie playback and reflection is barely noticeable.
BTW, any S10K user heard some noise came from the rear side of plasma, near the power socket area?

Currently using hdmi - hdmi native 1080p 1:1 pixel pc input.
Native hdmi from ATI 4000 series with 7.1.
So far so good and colour was slowly improving as tv hasn't fully 'break in' yet.
But bad as the tv is now with Panasonic for warranty claim.
Hopefully I can get it back tomorrow.

what's wrong with ur set?

i think ronaldjoe has story before..

How long break in period for this P42S10K? I'm using EA Plasma Break-in DVD images which stored in SD card, can anyone share the setting used for break in?

Mode Dynamic
Contrast 100
Brightness 55

1 of the features of S10 as listed at Panasonic website is: Screen Saver --Wobbling/Side Panel Adjustment.

However, I can only change side panel to different shades of grey; there is no wobbling feature.

Can anyone shed some light on this?

mind to explain y need to use high contrast level?

Simple, to age the plasma phosphor quickly and evenly. Of course you can use lower contrast and brightness, but instead of break in 120 hours you might need to break in 240 hours. But this only applies if you use the break in images or video. If you intend to break in by watching movies, then lower down your contrast and brightness, but it will take ages to complete.

All G11 and G12 Pansonic TV has wobbling feature.
it is not something u can set.

Anyone know commontan contact? Pls. PM me, thks.

Local 42S10 is part of Panasonic’s 2009 new Eco PDP range designed to deliver improved energy efficiency and its power burn is 194W for Normal home viewing. 42G10 with NeoPDP to provide twice the luminous efficiency (also higher native 40,000 contrast ratio) is burning higher at 217W under same condition.

pioneer kuno its the best Plasma tv among all the brands!

what about other setting like sharpness, colour, colour balance, colour management and Noise Reduction?

Thanks for the great explanation.

Bro, how come the S10 manual as well as website states that the normal usage is 350W? I don't think that website at Panasonic Australia applies to our local version panel.

our version eat electric for breakfast one la

Probably that's the max power consumption. Cos plasma power consumption fluctuates based on scenes displayed (dark or bright)

it stated in the manual as NORMAL USAGE CONSUMPTION

Today panasonic guys sent my tv back.
They have replaced the panel.
Guess what the pink pixel gone.
But now there is another black dot right in the middle of the screen this time.
I noticed it before they left.
At the end, Pananic brought my tv back again for warranty... Argghhh wat a day...
