Amazon.com Product Description
Time to update your old-technology CRT TV? Zoom into the future with the technologically advanced yet still affordable 42-inch Syntax Olevia LT42HVi flat-panel LCD TV. It includes both built-in high-definition (ATSC) and 181-channel standard broadcast (NTSC) tuners. With the integrated ATSC tuner, you'll be able to receive off-air high definition broadcasts without the need for an external set-top box. More than just a high-quality TV, the set's PC inputs also make it equally suitable for home offices. It includes detachable speakers that can be mounted either on the bottom or on the sides, and it comes with a table-top stand (optional VESA-compatible wall-mounting kit available). p This LCD TV provides a 1366 x 768-pixel native resolution for a 16:9 widescreen aspect ratio for optimal letterbox movie watching and compatibility with 1080p/720p/480p/480i HD formats. It also offers an extra-wide 178-degree viewing angle, super-fast 8ms (millisecond) response time that's great for watching sports, 800 cd/m2 (candela per square meter) brightness rating, and 1200:1 contrast ratio. (The higher the contrast ratio, the greater a TV's ability to display subtle color details and not get washed out by ambient room light.) p The LT42HVi performs 3:2 pulldown detection and reversal, too--a handy feature for watching progressive-scan movie programs in their native 24-frame format. To adapt 24 frames-per-second movies to 30 fps video, frames in the original movie must be duplicated; 3:2 pulldown digitally corrects this duplication by removing the redundant information to display a frame-accurate picture. A 3D Y/C digital comb filter further enhances resolution by removing blurred edges between colors and reducing dot crawl (tiny, moving dots of color along a sharp color separation in a vertical line, as in a depiction of a character's striped T-shirt). p The 50-watt stereo audio system (two 25-watt speakers) delivers ample sound for sports and movies. The iDIVA virtual surround sound provides you with several easily adjustable settings that simulate an array of audio environments. It offers an HDMI connection, which provides an uncompressed transfer of high definition video from a digital video source to a digital display device, as well as the following input connections: ul liComposite AV (RCA): 1 liS-Video: 1 liComponent (Y, Pb/Cb, Pr/Cr): 1 liPC In (D-Sub 15-pin): 1 /ul p bWhat's in the Box/bbr TV, remote control, remote batteries, 1 VGA monitor cable, 1 composite-video/stereo analog audio AV cable, an AC power cord, warranty information, and a user's manual. p table bgcolor="#FFFFCC" border=0 tr td Syntax's iDEA Technology (Innovative Digitally Enhanced Architecture) delivers an exceptional solution to digital display complexities commonly associated with color, contrast, sharpness, motion, noise and audio lip-sync. iDEA's suite of built-in and user-selectable video/audio features delivers precise colors, sharp resolutions and audio synchronization through its advanced Digital Sound Processor (DSP). table width="100%" border="1" align="center" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="3" tr bgcolor="#CCCCCC" td width="33%" class="headers2"div align="center"font color="#000000"Dynamic Brightness Contrast Controls/font/div/td td width="33%" class="headers2"div align="center"font color="#000000"Pure Edge Enhancement /font/div/td td width="33%" class="headers2"div align="center"font color="#000000"Advance Sharpness Control/font/div/td /tr tr td class="indexboxes"Maintains overall picture quality by providing consistent, balanced color levels to control shades of gradation in dark or bright image scenes. /td td class="indexboxes"Virtually eliminates jagged edges from traditional interlaced video formats by creating refined edges around the objects on the screen./td td class="indexboxes"Advanced CTI / LTI algorithm improves color shifts and minimizes any type of shadowing or ghosting effects and increases sharpness and detail of pictures./td /tr tr tddiv align="center"img src="http://images.amazon.com/images/G/01/electronics/detail-page/olevia/Tech_BrightContrast_B.jpg" width="200" height="100"/div/td tddiv align="center"img src="http://images.amazon.com/images/G/01/electronics/detail-page/olevia/Tech_PureEdge_B.jpg" width="200" height="100"/div/td tddiv align="center"img src="http://images.amazon.com/images/G/01/electronics/detail-page/olevia/Tech_Advanced_B.jpg" width="200" height="100"/div/td /tr tr td class="headers2"font color="#000000"Avg.

 NOT BAD FOR PRICE SENSITIVE BUYERS July 2, 2007
Maka Veli (San-Diego, CA United States)
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Low on cash? Want to save some money? Want a decent LCD that will satisfy your input/output needs? Look no more because the Syntax Olevia LT42HVi 42" HD-Ready Flat-Panel LCD TV will do just that.
br /
br /Pros: Lots of inputs including 2 HDMI 1.2 interconnect (HDMI 1.2 version was confirmed by Syntax customer support). Excellent design and user friendly. Affordable price. The HDMI video quality is excellent. Make sure you get a DVD upconverter or HD/Blu Ray DVD Player, or a cable receiver with HD broadcasting.
br /
br /Cons: Bad remote, you have to literally point at the corner of the screen to get a signal. Glass in front of the LCD is highly reflective and will impair your viewing pleasures. Resolution only goes up to 1080i. Display for Composite connections are horrible. Video quality from a VCR even turned out better. No toslink (digital) or Coaxial audio interconnect.
br /
br /Overall performance from personal experience: not bad for the buck especially if you want to save. Enough bells and whistles to last you for awhile.
br /
br /NEW COMMENT:
br /
br /For PS3 users, if you receive the green screen of death when loading a game, turn off your TV, then turn on the TV again. That should clear up the problem. This problem only exists with the PS3 menu and game play, but not for blu ray dvd's. I am not sure why it does this. I will be receiving brand HDMI cables (v1.3) in the mail to see if it does the same problem. I will keep you folks posted.
