QUOTE(soulseeker6187 @ Nov 16 2011, 11:16 AM) i have some problems with my LA40D550 video playback. some anime mkv files cannot show the hardcoded subs. any solutions? 1. Extract the embedded subtitle, normally for anime mkv, the format will be in .ass You need to install MKVToolNix first follow by MKVExtractGUI.  2. Convert the subtitle.ass file to Subrip format (*.srt) by using Urusoft's Subtitle Workshop. http://www.urusoft.net/products.php?cat=sw&lang=1problem solved.

(i think must changed panel again..).. then i might sneak to see the pcb.. hehe MP4 not fully supported i think.. i always avoid dload mp4 format.

Normal for any LCD panels, don't move the panel to frequent, a slight twist of the panel can cause permanent damage in the panel. Do you turn or swivel around alot?
