I am new to this forum, but have been looking through and all the information is fantastic. I am by no means an expert or technically savvy, but if I am spending a few thousand dollars on a television, I want to be getting something good.

I think that I want to ge the panasonic 50-6UY, but hav a few concerns. Is there the ability to capacity to display 720p through component or is it only through the pc input? Also, what are some good tuners/dvd players to get that would be simple to reproduce great pictures with (should i just use the cable tuner from comcast)? Thanks to everyone for all of the information.

All Panasonic Commercial displays accept 720p through component.

Thanks for the info,


Would it be more worthshile to display the video through the component input, or get the DVI cable/adapter and use that?

There's nothing wrong with component. I'm using my 50PHD6UY via component for both DVD and HDTV and I have no complaints.


DVI provides some PQ benefits over component, but until DVI DVD players are more commonplace, I'm sticking with my component setup.

drhp,


DVI is optional on Panasonic Commercial Plasmas.


You'll need to buy the TY-42TM6D DVI Card and install on the free slot 1.


Before getting DVI read this thread about some issues with it:
