Question: I have a problem with this TV when I turn it on takes to long to do it and when is on it goes off again like three times before I can see it or use th
Document: Update 9/24/2008: It's almost 2 years later and the repaired unit is still operating flawlessly. There were a few times just after the repair that the screen would go black and the unit would need to be reset. Art (see below) had warned me about this. Haven't had to reset in a long time so it may have just needed a break-in period.
I like the WISELINK. Copy pictures from computer to jump drive, and view them as a slideshow.SOUND: This was My biggest worry before buying,We have slight hearing problem. We went to big box store to look at set at least four times before buying. it was hard to hear individual sets in a big place.The speakers are downward firing , with an angled Aluminum bezel.
The delivery person even told me to keep the box, in case I needed to return the unit in the next 30 days for any reason.Obviously, I'll have to wait and see how the tv works over the next few months in order to evaluate how it actually performs. But as far as the delivery process goes, I wanted to share my story with others who might be worried about making a big purchase like this online.
I'm going to keep this short and sweet. This is a fantastic TV. great picture, superior color and more brightness than i will ever use. I've had this TV for 5 months and have not regretted one day. Pair this with a directv or dish system and you will see things in regular and hi-def broadcasts that you've never seen before.Better yet, a nice HD-DVD or bluray player or at least an upcoding dvd player will make your movie experience like no other.
I had this tv for about 2 years this Dec 10 and I had to replace the light bulb 3 times with samsung and 2 times from a website online, I dont watch tv that much and the light bulb last long I think if your interested in buying this tv you have a back up tv while you order a new light bulb. the bulbs are not cheap to over 100 dollars everytime.
I've had this tv for a month now and had no problems with it. Had a few issues with cable tv, but they seem to be unrelated to the tv itself. I was a little surprised at the poor picture quality without the HD box from Comcast. It takes a few seconds to achieve full brightness, but that's not a problem.
The sound is great and can be extremely loud(just not movie theatre loud). I do have a surround sound system which makes it sound like I'm in a movie theatre. But I turn it on and off when I want to. Also Amazon's quick, free shipping worked well. I ordered the TV on Oct 28th and it was in my living room Nov. 7th. I couldn't beat the price either, a few hundred dollars cheaper than Ciruit City and Best Buy.
Regular HDTV shows, sports, heros, 24, csi, Leno, etc occupy full panel screen, but in pc mode, there are black space surround the screen. This might not be TV's problem, I'm using buildin video(intel 950), not a high end video card. I also didn't use DVI/HDMI, just a analog VGA connection.2, I bought a wireless headphone and connect to the back of TV, the headphone works with everything except HDMI input.
I ordered this from Amazon back when it was $1999. The price has been reduced twice since then, but I still feel like I got a great value. This price was better than anywhere else when I bought it and the free shipping was a plus.I looked at this TV for a long time at Best Buy and compared it to the other brands and models.
Had this TV for a couple of months and I've had no problems with it. Plenty of inputs and a very bright and clear picture. The biggest problem I have noticed is that you can't be either below or above the picture and still see a clear, bright image, although the side viewing angle is much better. Works well as a gigantic PC monitor, for playing movies, and for playing games.
Answer: My guess is it is the bulb if it is a couple of years old. Mine did that and would cut itself off and I would turn it on and it would do like yours is doing.
