Best Projection TVs

Happy Holidays All,
Im pretty sure my tv can produce a better picture than i have right now. its 1080p ready, i have HDMI cables and an HD Scientific Atlantic DVR Box. Can Anyone tell me what the optimal settings are for this tv? do i adjust just the tv or the box too? your help would be greatly appreciated…

Regards, MY
I actually used the website called Tweak.com that gives you fairly good settings adjustments. What about the HD DVR box I have? doe that need to be adjusted as well>>???

Is there a way to improve the color and clarity on my older projection TV? It is a Samsung model HCN4226WX/XAA? Do I need a new lamp, or can I clean it?Is there any hope for me?

I have two DLP TV’s both leave the lamp on for about 5 seconds after the picture is turned off. Surely the DLP chip could survive being turned off after the major heat source is.
Additional, The fan works for about five minutes after the bulb is turned off, surely the bulb would cool down quicker if it was unlit?

I have a Panasonic 51″ rear projection HDTV that has a blurry picture. If it helps to know the model number it’s PT-51HX40B. The TV is about 7 years old now and while it still functions, the picture is getting quite blurry. Text is becoming extremely hard to read as their appears to be red shadow behind any white text I see on the screen. Sometimes the screen will go black for about 5-10 seconds and then will come back on (note the power doesn’t turn off, the screen just goes blank). The TV supports 480i, 480p, and 1080i only. It seems the higher resolution I set it too, the worse it gets. From the sounds of it would it be cheaper to just buy a new HDTV, or would it be worth it to get this one repaired?

Digital projectors are those video projectors which are used in conferences for presentations. The digital projectors receive video signals from, usually, desktop computers and display images on large screens which can be easily comprehended by all in the gathering.

Two Types of Digital Projectors
To begin with, there are two technologies used by digital projectors, the older one being the LCD, liquid crystal display with independent transparent panels of LCD for each constituent primary color (red, blue and green.) The image transmission depends on the signal received by the projector from PC which redirects the light signals through these LCD panels and lens onto a screen. The LCD projectors look pretty similar to older slide projectors and are simple in construction and thus cost less in comparison to their successors DLP projectors. The LCD can be thought of as slides placed at the focal length of the lens making it complete. Clarity of picture in LCD projectors depends on the number of pixels it is set for. (Pixels are smallest area of data or picture holders)

DLP Projectors: The Latest of the Digital Projectors
Digital Light Processing or DLP is a technology developed by Texas Instruments in 1987. DLP projectors bring in a paradigm difference in technology in image projection to board rooms. Unlike their predecessors, DLP projectors make use of tiny mirrors or micro mirrors to reflect light images to pass through the projector lens and onto a screen. Each mirror can be thought of as representing a pixel. The mirrors reflect primary colors in rapidly rotating succession as actuated by a rotating color filter wheel. The image of rapidly changing colors ‘constructs’ images for human eye perception. The micro mirrors are collectively called as DMD or ‘digital micromirror device’.

For the sake of enhancing picture clarity, the rotating wheel is provided with a plain patch which allows plain white light. This type of DMD projectors are also known as single chip projectors. The three chip projectors are a bit complicated but offer better clarity. Here a prism splits the light from lamp into primary colors which are redirected to DMD which recombines them before projecting through the lens.

Where Is the Difference
DLP projectors are lighter and give far better pictures. Single chip resolves 16.7 colors while the three chip model does a, hold your breath, 35 trillion colors.

Commercial Models
Texas Instruments is the pioneer who owns the patent for DLP technology. Fraunhofer Institute of Dresden of Germany developed the same technology simultaneously and markets it as Spatial Light Modulators. HP, Samsung are other market leaders in both LCD and DLP technologies.

I have a 54″ Projection Samsung that is about 6-7years old. The warranty is out and it has been working fine. A couple days ago, the picture is all static but you can still hear the sound of the cable, dvd, or game system. I looked in the back and it looks like all three tubes are still working fine.

Any advice?

The fun and excitement of the home theater system is to have a perfect picture. The perfection in the picture can be brought by using a home theater system with a projector and an actual screen. Therefore, you can easily have real fun and excitement of theatres by having perfect home theatre with a projector and a screen. But it is always recommended that before going to have a perfect home theatre projector or a screen, you should always survey the market as there are many companies that offer different types of projectors and screens.

Types Of Home Theatre Screens

The following are the three different types of home theatre screens in the market with varying features to meet your requirements.

1 – Fixed Home Theatre Projector Screen: Fixed Home Theatre Screen is a simple type of a screen which is used commonly. It is designed in such a manner that it can be easily mounted permanently on the wall. The disadvantagee of this screen is that you cannot change its setting or position after it gets fitted or mounted on the wall. It is composed of a fabric stretched onto a wooden or an aluminum frame held with fasteners giving rise to a smooth and wrinkle free surface.

The mounting of this screen on the wall helps in hiding the connected wires and cables; hence giving rise to a very neat and clean connection. In this screen, the speakers are present either at the back side or at its side. If you are planning to keep the speakers at the back side of the screen, then go for a transparent screen fabric as it will help in maintaining the acoustic sound by the passing of sound through the transparent fabric of the screen.

2 – Tripod Home Theatre Projector Screen: These types of screens are portable; that is they can be carried as they are attached to a tripod and can be folded easily. These types of screens are generally used for presentations in meetings, trainings, etc. These screens are not designed for movie watching. They are cheaper as compared to the standard home theater projector screen.

3 – Wall Mounted Retractable Home Theater Projector Screen: These are the wall mounted screens that can be pulled down when required. These screens can even be mounted to the ceilings. These screens are bit expensive as compared to that of fixed home theater screens. They are best for less spacious homes or area. These types of screens are generally used in schools by using an overhead projector.

Big Screen TVs

As compared to home theaters, big screen TVs are affordable by an average person therefore their demand is increasing tremendously. There are three types of big screen TVs.

1 – Big Screen Digital Projection TV: It gives crystal clear and bright pictures. One can easily get a 100 inches TV screen for approximately $ 2000.

2 – LCD TV: These types of TVs are ultra thin and light weight. There are many models of LCD TVs that can be mounted on the wall. They are expensive as compared to digital projection screen TV.

3 – Plasma TV: Plasma TV ranges from 40 inches to 60 inches and their picture clarity is marvelous.

It is always recommended to have a proper survey of the market before making a purchase of a projector or a big screen TV to make sure your purchase is from a reputable company.
