Yes you can turn off the overscan, i posted about that earlier. You can press the Aspect ratio button to get to the 'PointToPoint' mode. This turns off the overscan.

I'm sure it's fine, my package was delivered apparently yesterday from Amazon and there's been nothing on my account either. Probably just a bit backed up or something.

Rang parcel motel yesterday afternoon and mine had just landed. Cost me €10.50 to have it delivered to my door and had it first thing this morning!
Would have cost me €20 in diesel to collect it from their depot in oranmore!
Might be worth giving them a bell to check is there...

Has anyone used the telly with a PS3 or 4? Was wondering what picture quality and input lag might be like.

Finally got around to setting up a saorview antenna. Like others have mentioned, it works fine with the HD channels and I also wanted to point out that even the MHEG5-based aertel which is specific to saorview works great.

It did indeed say saorview compatible on the box so I didn't expect any less, but I just wanted to confirm this.

hi is it worth getting the insurance for this? 50 euro for 5 year insurance seems fair enough and they said there is worldwide coverage? planning on ordering this today but just want to make sure getting insurance is worth it!

I got an email a few days after ordering giving me 5 year warranty for free. Said it was a special offer.

KoA-Ollie

does everyone who orders get that offer? did you pay for the insurance first then get it for free or just get offered it to you?

Reading back on the email it looks like it was just a football offer for a limited time:

Heres the email:

Put your PMID as your flat/unit number, works for me.

Can this be used as a PC monitor?

There is an RGB port, but your really want to be using a hdmi at full hd, no mention of a dvi port.

You'd also want to be sitting a good distance away otherwise your eyes will hurt after 10 mins

Yeah it really was a silly question in hindsight

Got a txt today from parcel motel that my parcel was ready for collection. Not too bad for 3 day turn around. Pick it up tomorrow after work.

Seems so. Only option is add it to wish list.

What kind of wall mount would you need for this tv?

lostinNaas

Vesa 400x400. I got this mount, does the job.
You might also want external speakers, as the sound is woeful.

DVI is electrically the same as HDMI without hdcp and sound. You can just use a simple 2€ passive converter plug. Make sure you put the TV in "PointToPoint" mode otherwise it will do overscan so you'll miss the edges of the image.

Guys,
I got one of these tv's during the world cup - €226 delivered - thanks to the OP for the heads up on this.
Just one issue? Has anyone been able to pair this tv with their UPC Horizon RC?
I am using code 0390, but no joys.
Any ideas?
thanks......JK

Has anyone ever had a problem with the remote control not working? Or has anyone ever had to return one of these tv's?

Only problem I had was to freezing up playing movies from HDD might not be able to handle full hd video playback. No issues otherwise.

Freeview though, thats a bit crap or are we/they compatable now

Nope; this is a Freeview TV and so not compatible with Saorview.

A tv described as 'Freeview HD' will be compatible.

This is Soarview compatible, it even has the Irish channels listed on the box of the TV.

If you chose Ireland as country then it lists the digital TV as "Saorview" on the menus

Teletext / MHEG5 / HD / 7 day EPG all work fine so far

UK Freeview HD needs a T2 tuner, Saorview doesn't.

That statement, with regards to the vast majority of new tvs, is wrong.

Its all about MHEG5 and MPEG4 compatibility for Saorview. (well nearly all about...)

Tesco are a bunch of clowns. Waiting two weeks now, they keep telling me that the tv has been delivered, only for me to ring parcel motel, where they confirm that they didn't get anything.

Phoned back tesco, for them to tell me there's been a problem with the order, and they'd send another one. This rigmarole has happened twice now, 16 days after I initially ordered it.

Can't believe such a big company could make such a balls of an order, two different times.

philyb

Cheers that worked

Muahahaha

What's the all in price at the moment using PM and the discount codes ? Seems like a great deal

tuborg_man

Seems to be sold out again unfortunately.

I'll let my one go which I picked up 3 weeks ago for cost. Packaging and all perfect. I live in Drogheda and work in Swords. PM if interested
