Why do movies and shows look like B movies on my 55'inch HD LED tv?




Marie-


I do not understand it. On the TV, when we put movies, great movies, they look like B movies. It looks like it is an amateur person holding the camera and you can see the panning of the screen! help...someone help!

It's an ugly side effect of LCD TVs (even the ones with LED back lights) that use 120/240hz. If you want to search it on the web, it's called the 'soap opera effect' and it's nasty. It makes major motion pictures look like they were shot on a cheap camcorder. Some younger people like this and call it 3D looking, and say it looks so real or 'live' but I think it's horrible.

Hopefully the TV has an option to turn this off. If you can't there should be an option to reduce the effect. It might be labeled de judder, smooth motion or some other name, fish around in the picture options menu to find it. Turn that down. This is a side effect of LCD TVs using frame interpolation to create additional frames that never existed in the first place, in between the real frames. It's all done to combat a problem that LCD TVs have with a huge drop in resolution when there's motion. And LEDs does not cure this problem, it's also the reason plasma TVs just won't die, LCD still has too many band-aid issues.

So you can go plasma and avoid this, or if you want to stay LCD, do more research and find what TVs give you the ability to turn off interpolation and let you go to standard 60hz, or find out from other people on the forums, like AVS forums which TVs are better at masking this effect.

So.... I needed a tv in room for college. Well i didnt need one but i play a lot of call of duty and fifa so i needed one. I was getting tired of playing on a computer moniter. So i went to bestbuy, walmart, target, and sears but everything except bestbuy seemed sketchy so i went to bestbuy and picked up a Toshiba 39inch led tv 1080p 60hz. So im a newbie in the tv game so i need some helpful hints on how to maintain my tv as long as possible.. I paid 440 after tax so i want my moneys worth...


Answer
Just keep it turned off when you're not using it. Set your console up to turn itself off after a modest period of inactivity, and your TV will probably turn itself off after the console does.

The life of an LCD TV(doesn't matter how it's lighted really) is measured in hours. If you turn it off when you're not using it, it will last that much longer.

Cleaning is usually with a damp lint free cloth. You can use cleaners like Windex, just don't spray the TV directly. Spray the cloth, then wipe.

Don't throw things at it. :)
