terence,

can I ask you some question??? Why my Astro program graphic look crap on my parents Sony 32inch V series Bravia LCD TV???Is that Tv Problem??

hey guys, i know most of the new slimfits from samsung support HD res up to 720p and 1080i. what i want to know is, i saw an old model just now (i think its old), 29 inch, black in color, priced at RM1700 and its not widescreen. now, theres no HDTV written on the TV or anything so i assume its not full HD, but is it true that all slimfits have at least a 420P?

adui, typo, malunyer! i mean 480p

not to mention it is more expensive than singapore despite the facts that some brands are assembled in malaysia.

anyone knows if my lcdtv comes with a builtin digital tuner, can receive those rtm1 rtm2 dvb-t trial signal or not? if can then must buy one that has the tuner.

Friend, so what you mean is its not neccesary to get a HDMI input if your LCDTV is 720p/1080i native? yes i know that a lot of people debate about the video signal, what should be block and HDCP issue. What makes me wonder is why a lot of LCDTVs only support to 1080i but still put in HDMI since its not used to its fullest potential. Its more like a gimmick then a new feature. Cause everyone thought , "Oh it has a HDMI input, should be future proof". Correct me if I am wrong. 

Its just the same case as the PS3, remember that initial announced spec for PS3 20 Gb version. It doesnt come with HDMI port, so a lot of people thought it can't output HD video signal. Sony was explaining like mad that we still can get HD video signal with the component cables, HDMI is just a plus point not a requirement. But consumers still got the mind set that not future proof, so in the end to cut the story short, Sony just throw in the HDMI port. 

In Europe, the European Information & Communications Technology Industry Association (EICTA) in 2005 mandated that all HDTVs displaying the "HD Ready" logo must include HDMI or DVI inputs and support for HDCP. In August 2005, the Cable and Satellite Broadcast Association of Asia (CASBAA) recommended that HDMI (or DVI) and HDCP "be included on every set-top box capable of outputting uncompressed high definition content."

In the United States, the FCC has mandated that beginning July 1, 2005, all HDTVs 36 inches and larger labeled "Digital Cable Ready" must include either a DVI/HDCP or HDMI/HDCP interface. In addition, either a DVI/HDCP or HDMI/HDCP interface is required for.

1. i tested both original or ahem version
its like our pc, we put in dvd movies and play dvd
no sound for DTS sound option

2. yes, all the sound thru the tv, no special AV receiver or hi-fi
its the latest pioneer machine that plays div-x, i get the model code when i get back

  have you tried watching sdtv like tv8 on it, hows the picture quality? btw you might need this, just in case... 

dead pixel locator

mine is the smaller brother, 26" version

yea now i remember. well if u got cash then sell the LG one then get Samsung one lor

Btw, between Sharp and Samsung, which will u guys choose?

I saw the Sharp GA5 before and honestly the PQ is better then any of the Sony series, including the latest X-series. But its hard to find the GA series in Malaysia and the price is almost the same with the Sony X-series. So if i have the money to burn, i will get the GA before other LCD TV. But of course if budget is not an issue, i will get the Pioneer Plasma and wont bother about the burn-in issue.

The BX is a low-end series from Sharp, and thats why i can afford it. Beside the backlight leakage problem, i am quite happy with the Sharp. Samsung and LG is a no no to me, as i have bad experience with their QC. Just my own experience though...

Redken, which Samsung model you're going for? and if you're getting it, where would you be gettin it from?

I was planning to get the Samsung 26" but the 32" seems like a better choice it seems and of course with a slightly higher price  .

oh seems to be cheaper at Harvey Norman. My statement is based on prices at a shop which i can't remember what it was, it's either SENQ or HSL. I saw the 32" priced at 5.5k while the 26" at 4k+. Considering my current budget, i'm leaning towards the 26" but i read the sounds from it isnt all that good and furthermore, i'm no good in determining whats a good sound system.

You can call me a somewhat a perfectionist in favourable to style cuz the design of the R7 seems like a very fitting pair with the PS3. Any further opinions from you or any of the forumers here is very welcomed since i still need to gather more feedback on the R7.

Or get the LG 32" lcd tv at harvey-norman, selling for RM3499 currently. 

Did some search on the internet and found this :

1080i vs 1080p

So it's true, unless the screen size is BIG, you wont see much difference. And they have to concentrate to see the differences.

One more thing i dont understand is this : click here

Can someone explain the 2nd part ?

which of this is the recommended tv?

hey all i hav a question, i currently am using a 29 inch standard TV.. and was just wondering considering a 40 inch lcd is well... wide screen.. in general is it much "smaller" than my 29 inch tv? for example, my 20.1 inch lcd is about the same height as my 17 inch monitor..

I am actually asking because, size is a matter in terms of enjoyment and available shelf space.

Thanks..

i actually tried using pythogras to count it but not sure if it is accurate

Wont surprise me at all redbull....even the new model sony bravia X 40" 250 seriess is about RM8k in Japan compared with the old model bravia x 40" 200 series which will cost u about RM16,000????? I guess..sony item is overprised here in malaysia...

Actually just want to ask, I'm a xbox 360 and PS3 owner and it is because of these machines that I am looking into a HDTV..

Just want to ask though how important is 1080p if i am only getting something in the 40 - 42 inch range?

and I usually play games at a distance of 6ft+ from the TV? I've heard that ppl say if you screen size isn't too big you have to be really close to see the difference etween 720p and 1080p, is that true?

thanks for any advice..
