Official Samsung LNxxA750 Owners Thread - Page 5

I haven't seen it on any of our display models, but I did have a customer mention noticing it on his 750, the issue may still exist. He went from an old CRT projo to an XBR4, and finally to the LN52A750 within about two weeks. He said even if it flickers to all hell he's not swapping it again... I don't blame him

For me I think the 750 looks best on a wall, and the 650 is it's table-counterpart. The flat bezel looks like a picture frame - and when you use the gallery player that's exactly what it turns into. The gallery player seems like a nice excuse to show off the TV when you're not watching it I remember when I was young watching Back to the Future and they turned on the art channel - It's real now!

Besides Lestat - anyone else encounter stuttering on games like Halo, etc?

I only ask because no one else has mentioned it yet and I figure at least 1 or 2 other owners of the 750 have played first person shooter games on their 750.

I've still held off on ordering a set. . .

We have an Xbox 360 hooked up on HDMI to our 650 or 750 depending on the day, and I haven't noticed any stuttering, although I haven't noticed any overall. We have a 71f nearby and you can definitely see it stutter on that display though.

Cool, what are you running your AMP at, mine is on medium and in the resistence demo i go right beside the bus and start doing a little spin and it goes nuts the vapor is always there.

Might be useful to compare firmware versions to track the Stutter issue.

(In the 650 thread, there was one firmware version that had stutter, it was cleaned up with the latest version.)

Firmware 1004.0 Date 2008-03-26

Thats the firmware the 650 is supposed to be getting to fix the audio issues (popping sounds and surround turning off each time you turn your TV off). The firmware that had issues was 1003.g and 2 days later they released 1003.m with another firmware update to come, which was supposed to be 1004.

Mosh~~

Both my 750's were 1004, maybe that is whats causing my stutter and vapor, just another patch for another patch for another patch.

Ok cool!

Please do post pics!

I have a similar setup at home, using my PC for TV, HD, etc. and was wondering what does your PC say about the available refresh rates? Are you connecting at 60hz, 24hz, or something else?

p.

Could someone measure the distance from the bottom of the base to the bottom of the screen (just above the Samsung logo)? I'm planning to put my Center channel speaker in front of the set until I can figure something else out, but I want to make sure it will fit without obscuring the picture. Thanks!

5 & 1/4 inch

Thanks! Hmmm... whaddya know, my center channel speaker is 5 1/4 inch tall. I sure wish there was a good way to get a center channel speaker above a thin LCD TV, without having to mount anything to the wall, since my TV is about 3 feet in front of a wall.

From another thread, thought it would be useful to include this here.


He later compared this to the diagram for the 650, saying:


EDIT 5/29/08: There are problems with this diagram. See this post for the issues.

That's all well and fine, but is the TV really any better at performance? No one seems to know if the increased processor is actually doing anything for the TV's performance and all the other stuff is really just the "extras" that you are paying for, and really...unnecessary in terms of the TV PQ and general performance.

So, if someone can find out if the 16-bit processor is helping the signal processing or performance, then I am all ears.

I would add mura and clouding to the first thread because I have had two with it and know two people that Ive seen in person with horrible clouding. Also theres had two one inch think white lines going down the middle of the screen. Looked like the back light but i dont know if thats possible.

Just trying to help out my man, get this thread rollin a little bit.

Im trying to see what set to get and currently Im been looking at the ltn4081F. is this A750 better than the 81F? if so, what's better?

That's kind of where I was gonna go with my question except, I already own the LN-T5271. Is the 750 worth selling my 71 series for? I did notice that it has a much higher true contrast ratio.

IMO, yes to both, the 750 is a beast of a tv might not get quite the blacks as the 81f but i would chose the 750 over both those screens.

What are studder and vapor?

When you move, lets say your gun there is a vapor effect that surrounds the gun, studder for me is when you move the cross eye from you gun its starts going nuts side to side, this is simply the AMP not working fast enough! Hope this helps.

But you never really confirmed if you were running in GameMode or not. (you seemed to say that you were not using GameMode)

It seems clear that this is necessary for proper gaming. Have you been using this mode or other modes?

I think it has been well established that if you are not using GameMode that you will get all kinda of weird (bad) game performance.

No game mode being used as stated in a previous post, my 3 650's had no studder or vapor, If someone else has this then its a problem if im the only one thats seeing this then i have had 2 bad 750's.

(Lestat) Ahhh...ok, thanks for the confirmation.

Bummer. Man, what is with the Samsung build quality?

I keep leaning to and from getting this line of TVs...but I can't believe how many returns I am seeing. (and the number of multiple returns)

I know that forums aren't the best judge as the complaints far outweigh the praises. (happy people are watching their TVs, not fishing through threads)...but still, this doesn't sound very good for the money being dropped on these sets.

Note, though, that the post was edited to include the US diagram. The 650 service manual as posted is also the US version.

Having said all that, I will give you the following: (1) service manuals may have errors and (2) I have no idea what these diagrams mean anyway!!!!

I agree that skepticism is needed here. But I thought this was useful information that belongs in the 750 thread.

Im on the phone right now fighting for a 750


lost it- only will give me a 650.
