Official Panasonic TC-PxxVT20/25 Owners Thread NO PRICE TALK!! - Page 355

You'll want to use the ARC if you want to get more than stereo out of the TV.

Multichannel output is only possible from off-air channels, everything else will be stereo. This is pretty standard for most TVs.

Has anyone else noticed a small spark or blue-white flash when they turn their TV on? It's very small and seems to come from right next to the red power LED on the bottom of the bezel. I don't recall seeing it except lately, 2 years in. It may be normal, for all I know.

I've noticed it maybe 3 times in the last couple weeks, it doesn't happen often. I'm getting paranoid I'm going to turn it on one of these days and it'll pop on me..

Yes. Mine has done it from day one.

I had a tech out to replace a card and he said it is normal..

Cool. It's weird I've only just now started noticing it, but I'm glad it's normal behavior.

Thanks for the peace of mind!

Check out the display calibration forum, there is thread for availible calibrators. I believe "Ray JR" services your area and he is quite good.

panasonic released a new update for their tvs not to long ago it's update 3.7.2 all this update does is it ads a app store to list of thing the tv can do that's what update 3.7.2 was designed to do nothing else unlike update 3.5 which ads movie theater like 3D ability also known as the james cameron update.

i think best way to get better sound out of your tv is add bose compact sound system or a sound bar.

Hello, have not followed this thread so shame on me but wondering how many updates since day one have I missed so far and where can they be found??

Thanks

If you mean software (firmware) updates, the current version is 3.72 and is the only one required as it includes all previous updates. This can be downloaded to USB from the Panasonic support site or directly within the TV if it is connected to the internet via its ethernet port.

Thanks, really appreciate.

Just bought a 58VT25 with zero hours on it and wondering if i should use Dnice break in and calibration settings. Just wanting recent opinions on this topic. Panasonic advised me not to, so what to do???

I'm curious about the calibration too.

Go to the display calibration sub area of the forum you should be able to hookup with a great calibrator there

I have a TC-P50VT25 (2010) and I need to get a webcam for skype. Is there any known compatible webcams out there?

anyone know where to get the replacement 3d glasses im down to my last good pair and the newer model 3d glasses wont work with the tv25 compatible 3d glasses

I also used the dnice settings when bought mine new and had mine calibrated just recently made a really good diff. but his setting really helped prolong the life of my 58vt25.

How many pair do you need? PM me w/details.

Go to Amazon and order a set of Sony Playstation3 3D glasses for about $25, they work just fine with the Pre-VT50 Panasonic models.

I bought this tv in 2010 and got the 10 blinks of death. I replaced the mother board and it didn't fix the issue. So according to the service manual, SC board was the next option. I replaced that and the TV now turns on, but the picture (on all or no inputs is as seen in the attached picture. Is there a simple way to fix this?

Thanks will check out ebay

Say Guys, has any one seen a 3D projector if so compared to the Penny what did the PJ picture looked like??
