I just bought one of those and it has great sharpness etc etc
but i think its too much. when i watch a movie the actors really 'pop' out from the back ground, it almost seems like they are in front of a blue screen, anybody else notice this? it almost looks like its fake |

Are you watching High Definition (HD) material? It has been commented on the various AV forums, not that I have noticed anything out of the ordinary myself.

Some screens run super-poppy color and sharpness by default. Digg in the menus to find a more normal setting.
BTW: IMHO Digital HD TV adds nothing over Analog signal. Only when you sit with your nose 20cm away from the screen you see the difference. More noise on analog, compression artifacts and false color tone transitions with digital.

On smaller sets, maybe.
There's a HUGE difference between HD and SD on my TV. Analog looks like crap next to HD, especially when I have a good 1080p source. |

What make and size is your TV? It's odd that you say that b/c there is a world of difference between HD and SD on HD TV's. I had to fiddle with the settings on mine to get a good SD picture. I watch hockey sometimes and switch between SD and HD and wow, what a difference. You may be referring to something else though. |

A very recent 82cm LG electronics. Not expensive but the quality is very good.
Analog looks great, the difference with digital is 0. I never had any of the famous-electronics-store-salesman-talk/BS problems.

Digital or HD?
If you mean standard def digital, then, no, you really won't see much difference. The big advantage to digital comes as bandwidth conservation.
If you mean High Def Digital,and you don't see a difference between that and Analog, there's a problem somewhere. |
