As per usual warning when accessing service menu, DO NOT CHANGE any settings while in the service menu unless you know what you are doing. I, sure as heck, don't!

Just an update on my p42x28k problem. The guys from Panasonic came to my house last Friday and changed something on the TV. I'm not sure what it was as I was at work and my dad was the one who handled it. The TV was still under the 2-year warranty so it was FOC.

Anyway, the TV's working great now.

when will the new batch be available. have not seen any new models as off yesterday.

I've seen the X30 in HN and Denki in Mid Valley since last week.

how much for the X30? Is it better than the current 2010 equivalent model?

The 42X30K is going for RM1,999. I'm sure its better, but how much better, I can't really say for sure as I've never really paid detail attention to last year X20s. I looked at it briefly during my lunch break only. Dimension wise, it's not alot slimmer then the 2010 sets.

just back from carefour. ask the Panasonic salesperson, he said that they only sell a brand new. if used or display set, they will put it at one clearance corner. and carrefour agree to refund back my payment. tomorrow will be the day I return it.

question,
what is the best buy,value for money for 42inch LCD? as my viewing room is not dark and have direct outside light, not prefer Plasma..
haish, just dreaming to own a big LCD, suddenly kena return pulak.
can anyone recommend me a brand? and each brand has their advantage/ disadvantage right?
issit true LG, samsung, not a really good brand? care to share?

i am using 42v20k

tried the step, it never show time and count..


i manage to go to PTCT :00.00.00.00.00
HOLD MUTE and nothing happen....

am i doing something wrong?

Highlight the cell beside PTCT :00.00.00.00.00. Lot of ppl make mistake in this step.

So the glasses won't work on an OZ model?

I noticed that there is a buzzing sound whenever I switch sources or before a movie is played.. is it due to hdmi or sound interfearance? Very annoying sound especially from a supposedly good model.

I also noticed this noise in my LG plasma and have to switch off the tv speakers to eliminate the buzz. However I can't find any off switch for the Panasonic. If I put mute.. the sound is still there. Any ideas how to solve this or is it a problem with the plasma? Btw its brand new out of the box and not a display set. It's the 50in Vt20 series model.

Besides this, the recommended option for picture is THX but the overall seems yellowish compared to other options. Wondering why thx uses white that is yellowish? How to further fine-tune it?

Danny,

Buzzing is normal from the plasma, does it buzz more during bright sequences? There are 2 kinds of buzzing, does the buzzing seem less if u move 2/3 feet to ur right and left? If yes, then there is an accoustic anomaly due to ur seating position and the room. If not, then check to see if intensity changes with the pciture contrast during different scenes.

THX out of the box is pretty good but its slightly yellow cast. To get rid of this u need to calibrate. The THX modes target a gamma of 2 which is not ideal if u view in a dim environment. Calibrate the Pro modes that are more accurate.

I will let u know when I in KL next.

Im using my notebook for media player so maybe the intensity is too high..nevertheless I only set it to cinema mode. I will be transferring a dedicated sigma media player to the room so hopefully this will be eliminated. It doesnt buzz when I use the bundled 3d bluray player.

Hope to see u when u come to KL Can't wait to view the screen when it is optimised.

I am just curious, if you import the TV from australia to malaysia, how do you claim the warranty?

NIce im getting 1 soon~!

I'm using this setting. A good setting for the break-in period as well. HERE Another thing i notice on the tv is the motion judder, anyone here notice it as well? It happens on fast moving scene, where i looks like it's lagging or something.

Nope i did not import it, i bought it here because im staying here. I bought it for around 1300 AUD which is around RM 4K, model 50vt20a.

perky,

Do u see the motion issues with OTA stuff? 50Hz material only I suppose?

If yes, its a known issue. U need to get ur settings right to minimize it. I would suggest turning on IFC to minimum, the motion issues will reduce, but u will get other artefacts. U need to select the lesser of 2 evils.
