    sharongooner replied to the topic lcd tv’s in the board Technical Q&A 17 years, 10 months ago

    Im on a great deal with sky, got sky+, internet and phone and everything. Im not upgrading to HD for the sake of 15 channels which are the amount broadcast in hd right now.

    Plus from what Ive read whether you have HD or not people are still having difficulties in getting the right picture settings, even through top grade game consoles etc.

    its…[Read more]

    Well in that case he was saying he did know where he was, so I was lead to believe anyway.

    16.9 is standard for sky.

    Ive not even started on the wii and dvd/vcr/freeveiw settings yet, but all the forums Ive been looking at recommend either 16.9, which is what im used to anyway, or autowide. That setting appears to be the least of my worries at the moment.

    Is he not the victim that Brady said a couple months back he would now (again) help police with finding, or is that another one?

    No need for HDMI leads yet, its running on decent scart leads. I dont have a hd source to run it off, so dont need to use those types of leads.

    The screen size of programs is determined through my sky box, its set to 16.9 ratio. Thanks, but that does not appear to be the main problem here.

    Ive found some other settings in a dymanic mode that may work for the footy channels, will hope and pray. :wink:

    Completely normal frantic mum, thats all you are.

    Yes it gets easier, and soon enough you will wonder what all the fuss was about when he tells you how much he enjoys it, brings you home some wonderful works of art, and also comes home with more of the paint on himself than the paper lol.

    No chick, not bought anything from there in yonks and I certainly wouldnt buy a tv from there lol.

    Im not running it on HD at the moment Pete, its running on SD from a sky box, and has built in freeview also, and those channels are equally hard to get a great picture.

    Ive left him watching it on a rubbish setting for now, cant interfere whilst the match is on, and doing a bit more googling.

    These lcd’s aint as great as they are advertised you know, people be wary before parting with money and expecting a perfect picture as soon as you take it out of the box.

    sharongooner replied to the topic lcd tv’s in the board Technical Q&A 17 years, 10 months ago

    well the tips Ive gathered have been through googling the name of the tv and model number, and the only specific settings were for movies.

    But Daves just got that Chelsea TV on, and there’s a match starting soon and Ive got to re-adjust specifically for that setting as the actual sports setting is far too bright and leaves shadows as the contrast…[Read more]

    Bout time they got some normal people in there, I hope they do for the final year next year. People not in it for magazine deals, but for the social experiment aspect, back to the roots of the original show.

    I actually really liked him until last night, it was cringeworthy to watch a bloke pick on a girl like that, and go on and on. One of the other so called “men” should have taken him away and told him to leave it after the 1st time of telling her what her audition was like.

    He has a thing for her, simply because she is probably too nice at…[Read more]
