I should also mention that my girlfriend watches ALOT of SD cable. I watch MOSTLY dvds/HD content( around 80%). The issue with the sunlight really concerns me. I don't want to get a new tv that I can only watch at night.
Hello all. I'm looking to upgrade from my Zenith C32V37(which I love!) to something a bit bigger. Also I'm looking to go from a 4:3 set to a 16:9 set. I live in a medium sized apartment and the TV will be near a sliding glass door with ALOT of daylight coming thru. My viewing distance is about 8...
Thanks John... I just ordered the Zenith to replace my Toshiba SD-3800. I know that the Toshiba isn't the BEST player on the market, but I get a VERY NICE looking picture with 480p. Yeah if it doesn't work out I'll just return it or sell it. Does anyone know the SVCD hack for the Zenith? I...
Just be sure NOT to have your CONTRAST and your BRIGHTNESS set to high. Get yourself a setup disc to adjust your picture settings and you should be fine.
WOW! What a GREAT film. For some reason I wasn't looking to be impressed. Color me wrong. By far the BEST film of the year(so far).
You summed it up perfectly.
I've seen the Panasonic XP30 going for close to $300 on Ebay? Is that player worth it? I've heard good things about it. How's the build quality? Better then Denon?
I'm in the market for a new progressive scan dvd player. I'll be upgrading from my Toshiba SD-3900. I want a player that has doesn't have the "chroma bug" and has GOOD video/audio. I don't need ALOT of fancy features, just a good player. I'll be using the player with my Zenith HDTV. I'm...
I noticed this last night while watching Bad Boys 2 which is 2.40:1(Anamorphic Widescreen). I have went thru and setup my TV using the Sound & Vision setup disc. My contrast is set at 15/100.
This is a silly question, but here goes... When watching a widescreen movie on a 4:3 set and 16:9 mode in enabled should there be two sets of black bars at the top and bottom of the screen? A set of bars for the TV and a set for the movie? I'm gueesing that this isn't right.
What about Louisville, KY? I have yet to find anyone here locally? Also is this something that I should have done? I have an 27" direct veiw HDTV. THANKS.
Thanks for the info, I'll look into it. Also I was wondering what all would be involved? Would it be beneficial to spend $200(+) on professional calibration on a $600 set? Or would my money be better used somewhere else, dvd player etc? Thanks again!
I find that watching 1080i/720p in 16:9 mode the most enjoyable. Just wondering what everyone else did. Michael, would my 27" direct view HDTV benifit from an ISF Calibration? How would I find one locally? Price? THANKS.
If only my PC had a DVI out. :frowning: I'm thinking that since I only hvae a 27" set that the difference isn't going to be that noticable, thus not worth the price of the upgrade.
I was in the market for a Sony Wega 27" when I opted for the Zenith C27V36. It is about $200 more($600-650). It's an HDTV set and is worth EVERY CENT. I have a Sony Wega in my computer room and while it has a good picture the Zenith BLOWS it away! DVDs look amazing! You might want to save up a...
I recommend the Zenith C27V36. I've had this set for about 2 weeks and I love it. You can find it between $600-650. Dvds looks AMAZING in 480p and it will also do 1080i and 720p(?). Nice set with ALOT of features!
I pretty happy with the picture quality that I have now(big improvement over what I had before). Always looking for something better. The upgrade bug just won't leave me alone. ;)
