Does anyone know anything about the Toshiba 42H83? I followed your advice and brought in a PS2 to test it on some TVs... this was the most impressive. It worked great, no ghosting/motion blur. What's the deal with the 540p? What will that result in?

Hmm, looks like the 420 is ''dumbed down'' a bit... particularly speaker wise. It's also missing some enhanced 16-9 modes.

What about the new KV30HS420? I was talking to the guy from one of the shops, and he said it had all the features of the HS510, and maybe more. It costs 300 dollars less (1999 vs 1699). Another guy at a DIFFERENT vendor was unsure. Both can order it in for me. Is this TV pretty much the same...

Yeah, I don't want anything that will result in any sort of motion blurring or ghosting or anything like that. It might not be a big deal when watching DVDs or other programming, but for gaming, it totally taints the experience. I actually had to go back to the pathetic 20 incher to be able to...

''Of all the technologies, I still say rear projection CRT is the way to go'' Really... what are the advantages to a CRT rear projection? I have an RPTV, but I get severe motion blurring with PS2, and minor ghosting/trailing in general. Do you know any good RP CRTs?

Brandon- that sounds interesting. After a quick google search, I see that the CTR XBR's also convert 720p to 1080i. Soul Calibur does support 720p, and you say you're pleased with the graphics after the conversion, so that's a good sign. Have you ever seen Soul Calibur at 480p? For comparison's...

It might be a possibility... my room is in the basement, and I have one tiny little window, but it's not really an option I'm considering, to be honest. Right now I'm leaning towards the Sony KV30HS510... like you said, it converts 720p to 1080i. And I was just speaking with somebody (via...

Making a bit more sense, though much of it is still greek to me. ''Signal type: NTSC, decoded ATSC (480i, 480p, 720p, and 1080i)'' That sounds dubious, no? I'm curious as to what the converted 1080i looks like as opposed to the true 720p. I do have a couple of 720p games... I think I'll...

''What is the model and maker of the 40" RPTV that you want to return?'' LG, 40 inch 16:9 HDTV, RU-40NZ60

''I just looked both of these sets up on bestbuy's website. Both of these will accept pretty much any input signal, but they will convert everything before displaying it to 1080i.'' What exactly does this mean? What does it do to the picture/res when it ''converts''? Let's say I play...

OK, I was out shopping and I found what seems to be a great buy on a Toshiba 30'' widescreen HDTV. 720, 1080, the works. But it's not written in stone yet, I'm doing some research. Toshiba- 30hf83. I just tried to link to a site with info on the set, but the forum told me I couldn't until...

John- Thanks. I'm unfamiliar with DLP., what's the deal with that? Sounds awesome. BUT... 43 inch, 3k? That's JUST out of my price range... I don't think I could pay for them. But if I can find one, I just might be tempted... I suppose I could get some financial help. Anything of a similar...

Here's what I've been told about LCDs (I have no experience whatsoever with them) ''LCD TVs: negatives- small sizes now. Much motion blurring. Light source can blow out but is replaceable. Can get "dead cells"( dead pixels )Funny native resolutions which means scaling(see post to SynOr)...

''Based on what I've read: most CRTs don't do 720p and most LCDs/DLPs don't do 1080i.'' Yeah, I've done some searching, and I'm having trouble finding what I need. But I've found a few that do what I need, via google Someone on Gamefaqs pointed out this TV to me... '' Sony 30" 16:9 XBR®...

Well... 30-35 inches is a bit flexible, I guess! The one I have right now is 40, and it's a fine size. In fact, the only REAL must-haves would be that it can do 720p and 1080i, and be widescreen. I couldn't do with 4:3, and I'll need 720p when the next gen consoles come around. The rest, I'm a...

OK, I've got a bit of a situation here. I bought a 40 inch LG rear projection TV the other day. Long story short, I have to take it back... at the store, I was told that it had 720p, and it DOESN'T... naturally, I'm frustrated and I'm taking it back. I've had a bit of problems with it...
