Models I'm interested in...
Panasonic CT-34WX50 (34" 16:9)
Sony KV36HS20 (36" 4:3)
Factors:
Have over 800 DVD's, most anamorphic
Play PS2, XBox and Gamecube, many of which will be 4:3
(the Panasonic has vertical black bars rather than the grey of the Toshiba or RCA 16:9, will these cause burn in??)
The Panasonic will have a bigger 16:9 picture but a smaller 4:3 picture (around 30").
The Sony upconverts everything to 960i, which I'm not sure the Panasonic does.
I have just come from a 40" widescreen Samsung set, but a power surge blew out the LCD so I have to buy a new set. I loved the 16:9 aspect on my old set, and it had black vertical bars in 4:3 during games and TV, with no concern of burn in (due to the LCD). It will be hard to go back to 4:3 while everything goes 16:9, even with the Sony's features. Are the Panasonics 4:3 bars susceptible to burn in when I play games??
Please help me out a little, all these factors are making me crazy. I'm looking to buy really soon, so any help will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks guys,
Jason
