Hey want to ask you guys. Lately i started to notice a shadowy effect on my lcd while watching Dscovery or ESPN. It looks like my tv refresh rate so damn slow. But when I change it to HBO or play a dvd, everything is fine. WTF? Anybody notice this, or its a sign for me to get a new tv?

I think the reason we want to have 100hz tv when the broadcast is in 50hz is because when the tv to inverse telecine, it can just double up the frame to 100hz,so its easier. No need to do 3:2 inverse.
but if I bought hd dvd with 1080p24 output, I rather have 120hz tv.

From what I have gathered so far, (correct me if I am wrong)

Those LCD TV which can input 24p is not that useful unless the TV set itself support 120Hz. That's because in order for smooth judder free video, the frequency must be in multiples of 24  ...  e.g 24, 48,..... 96 or 120hz,  for perfect synchronization. Otherwise, even if the TV can input 24p, it will still have to do some sort of pulldown technique.

Currently those TV which claim can input 24P but does not have 120hz frequency is just marketing hype. It's akin to those TV which claim can input 1080P signal but the panel itself is only 1366x768 resolution.

Yup, I think that is pretty much right. But recently i saw a tv advert in newspaper saying the tv can handle 100hz and 120hz (LG or hitachi, cant remember). thus this mean we can select any one of the freq given, or its simply saying its actually 100hz, but it can accept 120hz (similar as normal tv with 50hz but can watch 24hz by pulldown method).

I think you have mixed up what we were discussing. We are discussing one thing and you are talking about another.

My point is , If you want to input 24p then the best combination  is with a 120Hz TV.

On A 100Hz TV which can input 24P, there will still be judder because of the uneven match (24p can't be multiplied to exactly match 100Hz frequency) . It will have to use some sort of technique to fill in the missing frames. How well the manufacturer implements the technique will determine how smooth the video will be.

On the other hand , if you have 120Hz TV which can input also input  24P signals,  it won't have to do any pulldown because it just multiply the 24 by 5 times.

btw, I only mentioned the topic of  1080P input on a panel with resolution of 768 just to show an example of  how people are sometimes misled into believing that any panel which can input 1080P signal is automatically a Full HD Panel itself.

Just like how people are misled that just because  the TV can input 24P , it will automatically have the optimal  frequency to handle the signal smoothly.

The two examples are not meant to be related, other than the fact that they are sometimes used to mislead people for marketing purposes.

Exactly what we are discussing, 120hz will have a simpler inverse telecine for a 24p than 100hz. You can afford though to have a 100hz, 70hz or what ever freq of your LCD tv have, given it will do a proper 3:2 pulldown. And there is not many tv that can do that (according to the expert from hidefdigest). One of them is Sharp A63 model, which is why Im looking for it so desperately cos Sharp Malaysia dont have those model. Singapore have.....

I think most of the current gen lcd will fit in your tv criteria (mainly for gaming). The only question is budget. I myself using the old samsung R71. Couldnt complain much. Just look around for current lcd within the budget and enjoy.

Why not? I thought its a good discussion and can be educating too. Lots of people bought their tv just because its look good in the living room, than start complaining why their astro looks ugly and their dvd looks like tulang ikan. Atleast i can learn more from someone like ar188, ngto, and even you.
Besides, where else should we have this kind of discussion? Kopitiam? tongue.gif

What do you guys think, should I get 50" kuro (not full hd) for 10K, or should 46" LCD 1080p for 10K?
I keep reading that 1080p will not mak any diff if you watch it at 2-3m away with screen less than 50".

Hi!

Just brought Sharp 32 A53M... so far ok the quality.. but due to my old dvd player.. i can't attached the HDMI cable.. so PQ is abit down.. got noise.. colour still ok.. the sales person advice me to buy component cable... (RGB) to have better vision...

So is it true if i add in component cable it will improve the PQ? How much it cost ar...?
*
Go get any cheap component cable first. Im sure the picture is much2 better.
The rule of thumb is RM10 S-Video is better than RM1000 composite, RM10 component is better than RM1000 S-Video, and RM10 HDMI is better than RM1000 component.

Maybe he can afford it. Or maybe its one of his plan for the future. Either way, his money, his opinion.

I think both are good tv. You only have to decide wether size or res is important to you.
For me, im saving my money for kuro though. Price range like yours.
