How do you connect your 3d glasses (ssg-5100gb) that came w/ my 72" samsung LED F8000 2013 tv? We followed all direction to activate glasses by putting battery chip + side up and holding top button down for 3 seconds. We already had the 3D movie playing before we even set up glasses. We tried the entire brand new set with each new battery & nothing? Is there anything were missing?
Answer
In order to get it to work the TV needs to be in 3d mode. You don't even need a 3d movie. Just hit the 3d button on the remote to turn on 3d. Then the glasses should turn on.

Plasma vs. LCD vs. LED... which is the best?
.
I've been looking at getting a new TV... possibly a Samsung 64-70 inch... 1080p HD 600Hz, 3D Smart TV Internet enabled, etc, basically as top notch as a TV can get now days.
But there's something I'm not sure about... what's best... Plasma, LCD or LED displays? By best... I mean best picture, longest lasting, etc.
Thanks for your replies!

Hello! LG WRman Sherlock here!
First, I want to clear up some confusion: LED TVs are essentially LCD TVs with LEDs as a back light source. Traditional LCD TVs use CCFL (cold cathode fluorescent lights) as a back light source. All LED TVs are LCD TVs, but not all LCD TVs are LED TVs. Get it? Alright, moving on!
Now that we got that out of the way, there are only 2 choices in your question: Plasma vs. LED. LED LCD TVs are much better in every way over CCFL LCD TVs, so I immediately ruled them out. There are two things that plasma TVs have going for them: excellent black levels and super-fast response times. The pros for LED TVs are much brighter picture and much less energy consumption. This is not to say that the picture quality for LED TVs are not good -- they are good, but plasmas are generally considered better. However, with plasma TVs, the picture is not very bright, so you won't be able to see a clear picture if they are viewed in a brightly-lit room. One person said that plasmas have an issue with burn-in -- ignore this person. Burn-ins were a big problem when they first came out, but now they are hardly a problem; just make sure you don't keep a still image for too long on your plasma TV for the first 200 hours or so of its life. If you do, you may get a problem with image retention (completely different from burn-in), which will wash out, but may take some time. With all this said, plasmas are the way to go for now in terms of the best picture quality, but LED TVs win out in terms of all-round performance. Plasma TVs are, unfortunately, getting closer to the end of its life. It will eventually be succeeded by OLED TVs in the coming years.
If you are looking to get a TV with all the latest bells and whistles, I would suggest waiting for a bit until the 2013 models of TVs come out this year in March. There are a lot of new technologies in store -- namely 4K TVs and OLED TVs. If you want the best of the best, look out for LG in 2013 with the next generation of TVs. LG has 4K and OLED TVs in store for 2013!
