Hello everyone, I'm in the market for a new HDTV. I have a chance to get a new Hitachi 60v500 (LCD) for about $2400.00 is this tv worth it? It's a 2004 model. Or what we be a better bargain at this size and cost? Thanks for the advice and opinions.
Thanks John, that's unbelievable that the problem was coming from a water softner. Was the location of the softner close to the display device? I'm thinking it might be in the 1080i circuitry. I decided to watch a dvd in my JVC player 480p mode and the picture is incredible. I think I might...
I'm going to try some more cables. But I do have a lite-on 2001 dvd player that upconverts to a 1080i source. I get a small amount of banding from it. I was wondering if it has something to do with the television itself (possible circuitry). My other dvd player does not do it (480p). I coming to...
I worked on it for about 2 hours and I can't figure it out. One thing I did notice was it's only present when watching tv in 1080i when I switch the receiver to 480i or 480p no banding. What do you think????
Hello all, I have a panny 47wx49, I've had it for about 2 years now. And I've noticed it has started to show banding lines pretty bad (white faint lines scrolling). Could this come from interference? Especially on HD. What causes this, and how can I eliminate it? I've tried unplugging items, new...

Hello everyone, I would really like to get some honest opinions. I'm looking at buying a new TV But my problem is I don't know if I want go with a DLP (cost) or stick with a good CRT (very intersted in the Hitachi 65S500). I would like a 65" CRT, Price is always a factor. But really picture...
Hello all, I would like to know if anyone with the lvd-2001 experienced any problems when playing a dvd no picture, nor sound or even the LITEON logo? Sometimes I have to reflash the 3.01 firmware to get my player to work again. It only happens when I do not use it on a regular basis. (usually...
Michael, please let me know how the set works out for you. Just a small review thanks. Because that's the exact same set I've decided to get (WS-65313) I have to wait until August (self birthday present lol) But I would like to know if the performance is up to par. I have a 47" Panny right. By...
David I have the same interest about these films. I've been waiting on them a long time, I'm going to try to pick them up this weekend or the early part of next week. I'll let you know my opinion.
Hello Robert, I love my JVC 723, I don't know if I will stop using it. It's great for non-anamorphic dvd and full screen ones as well. I do have a Liteon lvd-2001 that upconverts to 1080i. So I actually use both players now.
John, I'm using the 3.01 beta firmware. Also I ordered a new IDE cable. It was not the Cobra or the Gladiator but a new round one (via ebay), if the shielding is good (I also plan on using aluminum tape also) there should still be a significant picture improvement compared to the round cable vs...
Hello all 2001 owners, quick question. I put in Finding Nemo, and I just flipped thru all the different display modes, the picture displayed in NTSC Component (480i) is so much brighter, vivid, and colorful than any other, can someone explain why? Or has anyone else noticed just give it a try...
Thanks for the info guys, which cable is the best? It's a lot easier for me just to stop by Circuit City, unless some other store might have it such as Comp USA, or Best Buy.
Fellas, all of this sounds real good. But could someone actually post pictures of the procedure (modification) being done. I'm a little nervous about cracking open my dvd player. But if I actually see what's going on on the inside and the finish results I think I'll go for it. Thanks again...
Thanks Scott, actually the Sony does 720p. I went to Sears yesterday I think I've decided on the Mits I need the room also on the top of the tv for my center channel. By the way what is youor viewing distance? I'm about 12' from my 47" panny and it's fine. I can move back about another 1'- 2'. I...
Thanks John, I was leaning toward the Sony because of a review I read In Perfect Vision Magazine (2003 November/December issue) that gave incredible props to the Sony.(picture incredible so says the reviewers out of the box) But the Mits does have 3 component inputs as well as DVI and of course...
Hello everyone, I need a little help. I trust everyone's opinion on this forum, all the advice I've received has been so helpful. This is the deal, I'm upgrading my Panny 47" to a 65" (haven't told wife yet) I've narrowed it down I believe to 2 televisions the Mitsubishi WS-65313 and the Sony...
Hello, is anyone using their A/V receiver as a video switcher? (via component) What are your results as far as picture quality? I'd rather not have to buy a switcher if I don't have to. thanks
Has anyone owning a Liteon dvd player tried accessing the special edition of Terminator 2 (where you enter the code 82997) been able to get it to work?
