Problem with LCD Full HD 1080p TV need person to fix!!

BigProblem

Hi

I was wondering if anyone knows of someone who i could get to fix my tv, im having problems with my tv when playing PES on PS3. There is a blur on the screen when passing the ball to another player, ive tried all different solutions to try to fix it and i havent been able to do so! So ive decided it is probably best to get someone who knows what they are doing to have a look at TV! Is there any company/person who i can contact who will set my tv up correctly to play PES on PS3 (contrast etc..)

Thanks for any help!!

Whats the refresh rate on the tv?

BigProblem

im not sure, how can i find this out?

RedXIV

Do you have the tv model number?

BigProblem

im in work at moment but can post it later! i presume it is on the TV. Its a Samsung 32" LCD Tv by the way!Thanks

RedXIV

usually on the back of the tv alright. As regards to the blur, it could just be a low refresh rate, or even something as simple as setting your tv to "Game Mode"

TV Model No. is: LE32B530P7WXXU

I went looking online for the spec for that and it's tricky enough to find the refresh rate, only found it on a forum. Apparently its a 50Hz tv which may be the reason your getting blur. are you connecting with a HDMI cable?

BigProblem

yea i am connecting with a HDMI Cable. Surely 50HZ would be enough.

Have you tried putting it into Game mode? I do that on my TV for the PS3 - essentially it bypasses all the crap enhancement processing leaving the refresh rate pretty close to what the specifications state.

BigProblem

yea i have it on game mode, it is still blurry tho.

Turn on all the crap image enhancements so see if it improves the picture. At least then you'll know if it's the refresh rate or the panel.

50Hz is grand but 100Hz would be the standard these days for tvs, if not more. Thats why when you see the Sony Bravia's brag of 600Hz they talk about not seeing motion blur. I'd assume that 50Hz simply isn't good enough to remove ALL blur from your game.

Sorry mate


Although this is all just an opinion

Not necessarilly true. PAL Games encoded in Pal 50, will only have their frames doubled in 100hz, thus decreasing flicker but not decreasing blur, as essentially each frame is displayed twice.

600hz is really useful for pal60/ntsc encoding, 500hz would be better for pal50.

Now, if you want to get into a discussion on how this affects 1080p/24 that is a whole new level

my tv is still under warranty, can i return it and get another tv, one with 100hz?

i bought tv in currys.

Is it broken or not working to it's intended purpose?

I don't think "PES is a bit blurry" will hold up in the eyes of the manufacturer/retailer.

You could try of course.

That's a pretty basic set, if you look at fast movemengt on a DVD or Blu-ray you will probably spot more blur.
Check out Philips 7605 or 7695, Sony 32Ex503 and EX703, Panasonic 32S20, all are 100Hz.
