The TV came today and the Oppo yesterday. Both are hooked up and running. I'm running with factory settings, except for the "soap opera effect" where everything looks like video and not film. I found a suggestion for that. In Auto Motion Plus I set it to "clear" and that has helped.
I popped in a 3D move, the honor of first movie on the new system going to Journey to the Center of the Earth. Put a battery in one of the glasses, pushed the little connect button, and 3D is engaged. There was depth and when that little trilobite waves his antenna there is definitely an in your face factor.
Haven't got wifi setup yet. I guess that's next.
For the brief time I wore the glasses, despite being very light, I thought they might be a bit uncomfortable. Has anyone got recommendations for good glasses that are good for someone who wears prescription glasses? Be nice if they weren't too expensive and if Amazon carried them since I've got a credit there.
If anyone has any pointers or suggestions for a 3D newbie and an Oppo newbie, please chime in.
The one bad experience is with the delivery and setup, only one guy and he had no idea how to put the stand on. The instructions say to put the stand together before removing the TV from the box. Thanks for that as we had already removed the TV. The small diagrams in the instructions made it difficult to tell what was front and rear on the stand. I give Samsung a big fail on that.
The guy had to call his supervisor because it was taking too long and the boss said all he was supposed to do was get the thing powered on. I wasn't going to allow that until it was on the stand. So we got the stand on and powered on and I signed the forms. There was a questionnaire which had questions like: were there two delivery people (no); were all the functions of the TV verified (no). That was an interesting question since he was "only supposed to power it on."
I'm going to update Amazon about the delivery, it didn't qualify as white glove, in my opinion. And no, I don't expect white gloves.
Can't wait for The Creature.
