The upconvert of picture quality is an standard option or you must activate it at any time?

I believe you will need to go to "menu", "picture", scroll all the way down to "picture options" and select HDMI UHD Color. You have to assign the HDMI port # your Cable or Satellite HDMI is connected to and activate by turning from off to on. You will have to disconnect HDMI when you do this -- it will tell you to perform this function on the screen. I hope this answers your question. This TV has more picture settings and advanced options than I have seen on a TV!

It automatically upscales incoming content. At 4k you can sometimes see digital editing of non-HD content. If what you see is blurry or doesn't look right it's the quality of the incoming content that your 4k is trying to upscale. The old computer programmers saying is true "Garbage In, Garbage Out", but in the final analysis you can't get better picture quality than what your 4k Samsung is giving you.

FCR,The picture must be upscaled to 4K in order to be displayed on a 4K panel. So it would be automatic. Thanks for your interest in Samsung products.--Mr. S

Thank you for your question. No matter the format that is being up-converted, up-conversion only works to a degree. It can't make programming not shot in 4K look as clean as true 4K material. It will do something to slightly improve the quality but it can't perform magic to programming not produced in the format. Thanks again very much.

You have to change the video quality setting, the default is set at standard play not HD

I would rather recommend retunrning it and then rebuy it if needed, I bought mine last year and its totally the opposite to your description, works like a charm and displays 1080p, you can even read license plates

Nothing beyond the on camera display crop, red eye, etc...you need a separate program if you want to do any significant tweaking

My unit gets used daily and is working well. I set it up on installation and have no need to make adjustments however I vaguely recall manually selecting "toggling" through various options. I do not recall the option to input specific horizontal / vertical adjustments. There were many preset options and I eventually found the perfect resolution for my 50" display.

Does anyone know anything about the function of "upconvert" on this receiver? Will it upconvert any video inputs at all?

Set your TV to use the 'Cinema' defaults. The TV has near flawless color and color saturation using this setting.

That depends on where you have the TV (high versus low light situations) and how you personally like your picture to look. I suggest that you just play around with it some until you get the look that you like.

My camera appears to do both, I see the option to change video modes from NTSC to something else, as I want mine in NTSC however I did not test it.

So, "Analog to HDMI upconversion" basically means its going to take the old analog signal (or picture/audio quality) and convert it into a digital signal, (480i to 480p) which means that you will have a much better video/audio quality. Everything will look and sound better, basically. I hope this helps answer your question. Happy Holidays!!!

Nope. Once you've set it (turn it on), as I recall, everything is automatic. As with any new touch-screen device it may take awhile for you to get the hang of the menu operation but once you've played with it for a day or two you'll have it down and some of the features are not the kinda stuff that a "regular" point-and-shoot photographer should be playing with anyway....they won't help produce a better shot in the context of how I use the camera, at least. There are about ten settings I even care about and once I've set them, I pretty much forget about them. Hope this is useful to you.

LOL, 'fake' is a great term to describe it. Don't return it, it's fine. What you're seeing is sometimes referred to as SOE, or the "Soap-Opera-Effect" because it looks like you're watching some cheaply produced daytime television. It has to do with the way the source material was recorded, how it maps to the refresh rate of your new TV, interpolation and other large words you don't care about. What you do care about is pressing the green Menu button on your remote, selecting the first option 'Picture' and then 'Picture Options' about 9 items down. In this menu you want to change the feature called "Auto Motion Plus" from 'Standard' to 'Clear.' Walter and friends should look a little less fake now. I never understood why Samsung sets it that way by default, it drives me nuts!

Thats like getting a lambo with with a smartcar engine under the hood. You can do that but you wont have the quality of a hd picture. Just when you have to select picture quality select 480. Most players have the outputs you will need to connect it.Only do it if your real close to buying a hdtv. If your waiting til xmas sales or after first of the year i would buy a cheap dvd player as the prices for bluray players and coming down.

My SD DVDs did not look good either. The upconversion to 1080p cause the picture to "jitter" slightly, but noticeably. I went to "video output settings, selected hdmi (which are the cables I am using), manually set the output to 1080i....and the problem completely went away. My SD DVDs now look as well as they did on my old players.

Absolutely not! I even tried a still image for about half an hour then checked a white screen afterwards. No IR or burn-in. I have had mine for about 2 months. I'm glad that I saved some money by going with 720p.

It does not upconvert images. I would route HDMI through the receiver, and component straight to the TV.
