which is better? full hd or hd ready? led or lcd?

i actually can't see the difference in picture quality between all the tvs on display at the shop. the only difference i can see is when they split the picture halfway on the same screen but i can't compare with pictures on a different tv set

Well, from a purely technical standpoint, Full HD LED TV would be the best choice here (I guess).

However, if you can't see the difference, then what's the point?

LED TVs do have better power consumption though. Maybe the shops you go to are the type that use Astro to showoff HDTV?

I think I will get the Full HD LED then.. thanks.

I think u're right about them using Astro. I'm curious though, can you guys see a difference? Surely the difference is very slight, otherwise there's something seriously wrong with my eyes..

Astro is crap no matter what HDTV you use. Astro should be used on CRT TV for optimal results.

Also, LED is definitely best, but can your wallet handle it?

Maybe the PS2 is NTSC while your TV PAL?

I know it's unlikely these days, but it is possible with older LCDs.

i dont understand whaat do you meant by "JPEG-Like" picture.

i would say 90% depend on the source, if pirated DVD then dont complain, it is your DVD that give you the bad quality, if your are going to watch HD-DVD or blu ray then the quality sure very good.

if you use it to watch astro, it will be quite blur since it will be upscaled to fit your LCD TV unless you watch it in 4:3 mode.

IINM, Astro native resolution is around 2xxp, so even on SDTV, it is scaled doh.gif

yeah...

since bluray introduced to my dad, he's really enjoying the movies... godfather trilogy fan

but on astro on hdtv/sdtv, even dark parts on movies really disappointed, you only hear the sound.... doh.gif

Godfather Trilogy is awesome.

Astro looks suprisingly decent on SDTV, but HDTV look sakk.

I have never had Astro, though, and will only consider it to be 'an offer you cant refuse' when its in HD. flex.gif

yeah, Astro channel only support SD, sadly. my 25' CRT Trinitron is displayed even better than 37' LCD

AStro should consider to upgrade as majority will change to LCD TV near future.

Astro is sub-SD.

Astro pic is VCD quality (seriously) sad.gif
