Official Samsung UNXXD6000 Owners' Thread - Page 62

I have the TV connected to a Bose Cinemate (love it) and thinking of getting an Ipad.
How/if would it connect to the TV?
What input(s) would it connect to?
What would I see on the screen if for example Itunes was playing? Same apply to an Ipod?
Thanks in advance for any and all replies.

But you're not looking at real life - you're looking at a film.

I've seen BUTCH CASSIDY AND THE SUNDANCE KID dozens, if not hundreds of times in my life, including in a theater recently for example. I know how it's supposed to look, and I want to recreate that as closely as possible. Its not about looking like I'm there - its about looking the way its supposed to. Its about looking like its film and not video. I want a movie that I watch to look as close to the way it would have looked in the best theater on the planet the day it came out as I can get it. That's the end game, for me. Reproducing the way its supposed to look, not convincing myself that I'm looking at "reality."

If I want real life, I'll look out my window. Sure, there are no cowboys with guns out there, but its probably safer that way. Guns are loud, and they make me uncomfortable when confronted with one in real life

I understand why you would like AMP and by all means, continue to use it. I just wanted to provide the other side of the argument.

Hi,
Which is the correct setting of Samsung Smart tv ue46d6300 3D 2011 in service menu option type????help me please!!thanks!

Hello: There are a couple of things you can do to view iPad2 content on your Sammy ( this goes for most any HDMI TV). Here are some methods that I know of or have used myself. Others in this forum may have additional recommendations too.

Direct Connect:
Use the Apple Digital AVI adapter ($40) and connect directly with a separate HDMI cable ( I have not tried this method)
Stream/Airplay over your home wireless network:
Connect an Apple TV2 ( $99) to the Sammy then you can stream iTunes and other audio/video content to the TV from iPad2 and iPhone with iOS 5 over your home wireless network. With the ATV and iPad2 you can also "mirror" almost everything on the iPad2 to a TV ( like games, Safari Browser etc.) via iOS 5 but only in 4:3 aspect ratio.

USB
I just tried using the USB connection with the iPad2--this is now working ( maybe with the last update?) I am able to view Photos ( in Camera roll) from my iPad2 on the Sammy via the USB cable.

Airplay:
Some other devices support Airplay as well ( E.g. Denon Receivers)

Free Streaming App:
iMediaShare ( a free app) can be used to stream from iPad2/iPhone to the TV over your home network ( I have found this app to be unstable from time-to-time but it does work)

Just wondering if anyone has noticed if micro dimming helps to minimize clouding and flash lighting? It's available on the D6900/D7000 series.
Thanks

Thank you all for your input. This is as clear as mud

Just bought the D6300, managed to haggle the guy to get it down to only $10 more than the D6000.

I'd like to know if there are any differences (besides the web browers) between the D6300 and the D6000? Should I expect the exact same input lag numbers and picture quality as the D6000?

The only other difference I have been able to find is the ability to use the qwerty remote...

Thanks. The bezel seemed to be a little different as well. 6300 having a thinner bezel without the red tint. Guess they are pretty much the same besides that.

After reading the current topic on the samsung cap issue surrounding older models has samsung addressed this in the current models?

What is the Samsung "cap issue"?

Some power supplies were having capacitor failure...

Just got the UN40D6000 and the picture is gorgeous. I've got a CN03 panel with minimal flash lighting and clouding and a build of Sept 11. Virtually none. Nice set.

We picked up a UN60D6000 with the F301 panel built in November 2011, and I can't find any faults with the screen at all. No flashlighting, no clouding. Just simply gorgeous.

Blaine, thanks for the link... interesting read.
I have 3 Samsung TV's at home (two LED's and one plasma), and so far, no capacitor problem. The oldest is from 2008. Keeping my fingers crossed.

What is the difference between all those panels #?

I just bought one from costco and it's a H301 revision? Is this good, bad, ok?

For anyone who's been using their TV to watch 3D -how do you find it?
I know that apparently it isn't true/full 3D 1080p but so what if you're happy imho. (same applies to any other items like flashlighting, etc.)

Thanks it did help

I updated my D6420 to v1025 last night via internet. Haven't notied any difference yet. The Samsung website still shows v1023.2

Same here... wondering what was added or modified.

Ditto

Sorry. I should have mentioned that it SAID it was upgrading to 1025, but only upgraded to 1023xx

OK. So I just turned on the TV and it wanted me to upgrade to 1025, so......I did.
What the ..........?
Also - what IS the upgrade?

Merry Christmas to all you forum members that still celebrate this event.

Which Sammy model do you have?

LOL- Good response!

I understand your point but I'm referring to all of the technology that is out there is all towards aiming the focus to reproduce a picture as close to life-like as possible. Otherwise DD/DTS, etc. and 3D wouldn't have made it as far into the consumers home as it has.

I've always looked at the reason some films looked so filled with judder because typically, especially with older movies like the one that you referred to, was because of the technology at that time. Now more and more movies are being Shot in Digital instead of Film, allowing for better, more life-like quality. Which I feel is the ultimate goal in home entertainment!

Watching a Movie for me is like a "Cenimatic Adventure", as famous Comedian Dane Cook put it... I look to watch "Movies" whether shot in film or video that, if only for 90 to 200 minutes, put me into another state of mind and take me to another place by tricking my senses into thinking that I'm there in the Movie... This is my preference! Using AMP (if it works properly, unlike this model at least for me... lol, My LN52A650 works flawlessly! ) helps to create that extra deep immersion of the movie...

Either way, I didn't mean to step on your toes and was expressing my feelings about the technology. I've never been one to watch a "soap opera" and feel that the term was coined as easy way to pesimistically describe a technology that some people aren't used to or like. It took me literally 3 days of all day watching my LN52A650 to get used to the AMP, Now I'm hooked!

I will also admit that at first, it was very, VERY distracting!!! Now I literally HATE watching the TV with it off. The standard 60hz motion blur gives me a headache now if I even watch one program with it...

BUT, as you others have stated, to each there own.

Finally got this set up after a week of it sitting in the box.
Bought the UN55D6000 from TD Rewards for $999, so I'm happy with the price.

Got it all set up. We have some old components at home, so knew I had some shortage on audio out (RCA) and RCA in.
Will be taking this TV when I move out though, so not a huge issue right now.

I'd like to thank redwolf4k for the settings. They look pretty good.
On black screens, I do have some flashlighting in the corners, but not noticeable with content.

Couple questions:
Anyone have the remote control code (3 digit)? Would like to program it into our satellite remote control.

SmartHub. Is it possible to get it to access shared folders like my WDTV live?
I have it connected though an ethernet bridge (ASUS router with Tomato). I can access the internet, so that's set up.
Can it access shared folders, or just attached USB drives?


Thanks guys. Looking forward to using the resource more.

Through Allshare or some other DLNA software. But lookout for tying to share blu-Ray MKV's through the ethernet... May not work as they describe that it does....
