ATSC - Means 2009 Digital TV Ready
Buy with confidence that ATSC TVs are designed for the future!

The ATSC Standard for Digital Television (DTV) encompasses a number of Standards, Practices, and Guidelines for Digital Television. What it means for today’s television consumer is that ATSC TVs are ready for the future!  They comply with the requirements for the transition to Digital TV sets and all digital transmission to occur by February 17th, 2009.  ATSC Digital Ready TVs have digital tuners already.  TVs and related Tuner products that are not ATSC will require a separate digital tuner after the transition date.

How Compatible Is HDMI?
HDMI is fully backward compatible with PCs, displays and consumer electronics devices incorporating the Digital Visual Interface (DVI) standard. Both HDMI and DVI were pioneered by Silicon Image and are based on TMDS®, Silicon Image’s powerful, high-speed, serial link technology. HDMI supports standard, enhanced, or high-definition video, plus multi-channel digital audio on a single cable. It transmits all ATSC HDTV standards and supports 8-channel digital audio, and with 5 Gbps of bandwidth, HDMI can accommodate future enhancements and requirements. Because HDMI was designed specifically for consumer electronics applications, it offers an array of additional consumer enhancements. As digital content can manifest itself in a variety of sizes, resolutions and formats, HDMI-enabled systems will automatically configure to display content in the most effective format. In addition, if implemented in a specific device, HDMI enables a single remote point and click, allowing manufacturers to deliver home theater systems that automatically configure from a single command from a remote control — turning on or off the components necessary to view a DVD, listen to a CD, or watch cable or satellite TV.

What is the difference between HDMI 1.3 and HDMI 1.3a, or 1.3b?
For consumers, there is no difference between HDMI version 1.3 and 1.3a or 1.3b. These minor revisions to the specification typically relate to manufacturing or testing issues and do not impact features or functionality in a specific product. In addition, HDMI Licensing, LLC is actively working with manufacturers to reduce confusion for consumers by de-emphasizing version numbers and focusing instead on product features and functionality.

How can I identify which HDMI products support a specific feature, such as DVD Audio or Deep Color?
The key for consumers to remember is that HDMI has consistently enabled a variety of the most innovative new technologies (whether they are DVD Audio, SACD, 1080p/60, etc.). However, in many cases, it is up to each manufacturer to choose which features to implement in any given product. The manufacturer can choose the mix of features that makes sense for its customers and products. So, customers must choose devices that have the features that they want (instead of focusing on which version of HDMI is implemented by the device.). Consumers interested in confirming whether a particular consumer electronics product supports DVD-Audio or any other feature over HDMI are urged to review users’ manuals and product reviews, or check with manufacturers directly.

What Is Firmware Upgradeable?
Many of today’s electronics product are design for today’s standards.  Yet like personal computers, they have advanced capabilities that will let them be upgraded for use with new technologies and standards.  The ability to upgrade the firmware of an electronics product allows you to extend the useful lifespan of the device you purchase, and be able to expect support for many (if not all) of the emerging new standards.

What is the difference between Active HDMI and Passive HDMI?
There is no active or passive HDMI in the HDMI specification. These terms apply to cables. Active cables have built-in electronics to enable long cable runs, and typically these cables require a power supply. These cables use active electronics to help push the signal farther than typical passive cables.

Currently using this tv as a monitor. Quite happy with it as it is only being used as a monitor. There seems to be a deterioration in picture brightness and quality when looking at the monitor from every angle except for looking at it straight on. Other than that, ive had no problems with it yet!

REVIEW BY:  Reviewed  Feb 21, 2008 

PRO: * Picture quality is very good (but see Viewing Angle comment). * Unique presentation of channels during tuning. * Has all 3 tuners. * Trim looking. CON: * Viewing angle is terrible, particularly as little as 10-20 degrees down from straight-on horizontal. If you look up at the screen, as is common in a bedroom setting, the picture deteriorates quickly as the screen gets very ”contrasty” and dark. Turns out that many 20” and smaller sets I checked out at stores have the same characteristic; 32” and greater don’t seem to have it; 26”, some do and some don’t. So I did end up keeping it. * Others have reported excellent over-the-air reception. Mine is lousy, getting no O-T-A channels from an admittedly old analog antenna. * Sound is poor. * No channel labeling. SUMMARY: Far from perfect, but I judged it to be a decent value in a flawed field. I think many 20” sets are computer monitors fitted with tuners.
