Well, the TV is now mounted on the wall in the bedroom and looking spectacular. I run SD programming in 4:3 and it gives me 32" viewing size
. The Grey Cup looked great on it. I used it as a chance to test out the 120hz capability. I found on the highest setting it was still giving the multi-football impression, on the initial movement of the throw or the kick and then it would catch up to it and look normal. I put the setting to the lowest speed and it helped quite a bit, only on a closer in shot of the game did it show the 3 football effect. Interesting that the fastest setting didn't help but the slower one did, all well just nice to have the ability to adjust
I still have many adjustments to try and set up, this thing has the most adjustments I have ever seen on a TV. It did work and look great right out of the box, but in true audio/videophile tradition(not that I really consider myself one) I must play with the settings, for better or worse.
While it was downstairs in the main HT area, we watched Santa Clause 3 in my newly aquired
Samsung DVD-1080P7. This is what we get to buy on sale for $98 up here, not a true HD player but it fills the screen better than my older HD-931 in 720P.
This upconverting DVD player worked awesome, the 1080P picture quality was outstanding from a SD disc! And the best part is I get to use the orignal remote from either, the TV or DVD player, as they use something called Anynet+, it is a one touch start up just like the Harmony. Push the DVD button the TV turns on set to the correct input and the DVD turns on and starts playing.
