Just impule bought a Panny TH42PZ80U....couple questions for you all.

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 
My only other HD set has been a 1080P DLP. Late last week my old tube tV crapped out in the bedroom. I went online and without much research at all I purchased the Panasonic TH42PZ80U (the deal...from an authorized Panny dealer....sure seemed to be a great one). Anyway, now it's been delivered and directv has been out to hook me up with a HD DVR....but....I've got no idea of the proper settings and the "100 break in" guidelines that I've heard about. By chance, can somebody direct me to a quick reference on the proper settings as well as break-in guidelines? I'm really trying to avoid having to read through the thousands of posts in the "owners thread" if at all possible.

One last thing....is there such a thing as "motion blur" with plasmas? I was doing some late night TV watching the other night on the new set and could have sworn the pixels were breaking up from time to time.

Thanks!

heres the link for the calibration thread http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?t=1019763
there you will find all the info you need.To break it in just set the picture and brightness controls below 50 for the first 100 to 200 hours and try not to display black bars when watching t.v and you will be good. Motion blur could be source or the settings on your TV most people recommend leaving it in Cinema mode for the best picture and no I have not seen blurs on my plasma I think that it what makes it an advantage over LCD.
