Choose "PC" or "Game" and you will have very little perceptible lag (16ms), but "PC" mode allows for activation of local dimming, custom gamma adjustment and white balance controls. If you label input as "Game" game local dimming will be disengaged.

Ok. I did the advanced search function. But could not come up with solution to these two issues. Maybe I am using the wrong search words.

1) I have box pixel like effect when there is a fast action on screen. i was under the impression that 240hz would take care of that.

2) I am unable to find my subscribed channels un Youtube even though I have logged in with my id.

Any help / pointers to the right thead would be appreciated.

Thanks

I might as well chime in here. I agree with Tampa8--never put local dimming on anything except LOW or OFF (I like LOW). On sharpness settings, the CNET setting of 0 is insane. The picture is dull and bland. I've got my sharpness set at 25. I have my brightness set at 50 but I will adjust down to 45 if watching in the dark and will up it to 55 if watching during the day.

I gave reasons and a pic of one of the ways in earlier posts. Low does a very good job, but don't get fooled, when you adjust to low it takes a second or two to become active, it may look at fist like it's not doing anything. The other setting I don't like is 0 sharpness. Using calibration Disc closer to 15 to 18. I used to go a little higher but like what the disc shows to be correct.

First off would like to say its nice to have forums like this to help choose your TV Now i am in the line for a new TV and i was going to purchase this TV from currys but after reading this forum and other forums about this TV I am very nervous of buying it .i am new to LED TV,S i have had full hd plasma TV,S for years and am very happy with the picture quality from plasma TV,S specially when compared to LCD. But looking at all the problems on this site and others with picture settings,clouding problems, 24p bug, light bleeding problems,and gaming problems and even how many TV,S where returned i have to say its very off putting.

So i guess my first question would be is LED TV,S the way to go.

How long would you expect them to last.

And i suppose what would be a good TV to buy

Thanks in advance for all your help.

PLASMA, LCD, LED, i said plasma was better than LCD, but is this not a LED TV. And of course i love the features of this set but it seems to me everybody seems to be saying there is a lot wrong with this set. i just think if you spend money like this you should get what you pay for.

Ah, I see. Except for recently design OLED's, of which *one model* is shipping this year and is absurdly priced, every "LED" TV you find is actually an LCD TV with LED lighting behind it. It's also known as an "LED-LCD" or less commonly an "LCD-LED". Previously when you saw LCD by itself, it meant an LCD TV with fluorescent lighting behind it.

THAT said, consider all LED-LCD TVs to have the same issues as LCD TV's. There is an exception to this in that LED-LCD's can be edge-lit, which is why TV's suddenly got thinner some years ago. Further, when you hear "LCD" in this forum, you should almost always assume they mean "LED-LCD", because those are the currently pushed technology, and the LM7600 is an LED-LCD.

Sigh. This is far far far too big a conversation to educate you in this thread.

Take a look at this page perhaps: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LED-backlit_LCD_display

All this aside, Tampa's question is 100% valid and was my question as well. IF you are happy with plasma, we're asking why you would want to tempt fate and move to LCD? I'll go further to warn that if you've been fully happy with plasma, that the chances are very good that you will be disappointed by LCD (because of off-angle viewing, lesser blacks, not quite as smooth). LCD however will be brighter, but again, the bottom line is that you're happy with plasma, so given that, don't give yourself a headache: shift gears to searching for the right plasma.[/

Thank you for clearing that up. I Suppose the reason i was looking at this TV'S is my plasma of many years has quit on me and i was looking to replace it so i went to Currys to look for a replacement but i did not see a lot of plasma TV'S there so i taught maybe LED TV'S is leading the way so i taught may be time for a change. but did not think there would be quit so many problems with them.Could i ask any of you what TV you would recommend? thanks ps all that being said let it be plasma,lcd, led has this TV not got an awful lot wrong with it can i expect that with all these TV,S

I have the lm6700 and I can tell you the blacks are as black as black can be. It looks stuuning to me. I kept trying to convince myself to look at a plasma for it's cheaper price but I just kept getting sucked into the LED TVs. Very happy with the choice I made. If I had a few hundred more dollars to spend I most certainly would have went with the 7600. The pictures on these LGs looked better to me then the Samsung's in the same price range.

I may be able to help with the first inquiry. The LG LM7600 employs a 120hz panel(no frame insertion) and a scanning backlight system that simulates an additional 120hz of motion performance w/black frame insertion to assist pixel response time. If you employ the tru-motion system built into the set using interpolation settings user, smooth and clear most will introduce motion artifacts that appear as small pixel around moving objects. This will often times look like on screen objects are shimmering whether it be movie, network TV or gaming. Make sure you have these settings off or on user, so you can have some level of customization in how much interpolation is used.

Hopefully this new set doesn't have the light bleed and connectivity and power on/off issues that have been plaguing my 7600.

And where did you buy it?

And also sorry, i really can't/shouldn't divulge that information just yet.

(I'm not a professional blogger/reviewer or anything so don't expect tons of detailed info once i get it)

And yes, i have definitely obtained the set legitimately so don't go down that road either.

Pictures? I suppose i can do that... what kind of pictures do you guys want?

Originally Posted by tgm1024

Also, how close you could get it to the wall, what it looks like on a table, etc.

All extremely valuable.
