Please share YOUR optimal Toshiba 47/55 WX800 display settings: So what have others done to fix the "soap-opera" effect that is created on more standard definition channels?

From another post, Matthew Swalwell said to set Film Stabilization to "standard" if you want the soap opera effect to go away, in my opinion, it works!

Your right on the money!! Mine does the same thing and I hate it. I was also watching the NBA playoffs and noticed and then it happend when a commercial was on and now I notice it all the time. My 27 1080i LCDTV Olevia has way better quality in HD and SD. I was using HDMI then switched back to component cables. One thing that did help me though is that I turned off all the special settings like the enhancements and black levels to get a true picture, because the manufacture hikes up the settings to make the TV look better on display at the store than in your house which will look a lot different.

The best thing to do is to Buy one of those hd tuning dvds. I did that and it looked better than when i screwed with the settings. My tv looks great and I no longer mess with the settings.

No I have not seen that issue even up close. I have although done some messing around with the picture settings and by no means am I an expert. I would try some different settings or return it for a new one because of the price we have all had to pay for it. It could have even been damaged during shipping or not have set long enough before it was turned on the first time. I have the exact tv and the blacks are deep blacks and the whites are true as well as grey and all other colors. I let mine sit for eight hours after it was mounted on the tv stand before I turned it on for the first time.

I just purchased a 750 and out of the box it already has a 1 inch long area on the red toc that looks like it is gone. It's a tiny sliver on the right, but from across the room you can see on the outside of the glass that it reflects light differently and looks less than perfect :o( ...Can anyone advise me on what I should do? I didn't purchase an extended warranty. Other than that, this tv is AMAZING!!!!!! seriously... AMAZING!!!! Words cannot describe. Literally, OMG, OMG, OMG as I watch a Blue-Ray disc.

I have not noticed any artifacts, banding, or other problems on my W900. This TV offers the best picture quality and user experience of any TV I have owned. My only complaint is the somewhat high price.

maybe double check the settings menu, I saw a "dynamic contrast" in there somewhere. Don't know if it would help any, or if it's default on or off, I was clicking all over the place! It could also be using more power to light up the screen? Is your video card good for the resolution? Just guesses....

wish i knew, i cant seem to find the sweet spot either, i read the reviews and set it to what some other guy had, and it looked bad on my set, i noticed when i switched from componet to hdmi, the color changed , somehow, not sure what the best settings are

You are correct. The contrast ratio for this TV is 800:1, whereas a similarly priced competitor (Sharp) has a contrast ratio of 10,000:1. Yes, ten thousand against Toshiba's eight hundred. That's significant. No wonder why they hide it.

Sadly, after watching an "Aliens" DVD on this new BDP-350 I think the upconversion is inferior to my now disconnected Toshiba A-3. My plasma is a 2005 Panasonic 480p EDTV, the best ever made before the resolution was phased out, and the difference is obvious and painful. Resolution is set to "auto" which seems to be the same as 480p.Maybe I've missed something. Anyone out there have any suggestions? Thank you.

Toshiba does not want to tell the consumer about the contrast ratio of their TV. I searched on their official website and even called their customer service for this particular product. They told us that Toshiba does not release this information to the consumer.... I guess because they are not that good, so they rather not to tell.Buy another brand who dare to show their information for comparison purpose.

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.

Have had thw A750 for 1 month. Everything about it is great. Best picture I've ever seen. Halo Effect is negligable and the screen is not glossy enough to use as a mirror. I do have one question: When the TV come on, the screen says resolution of 1980 x 1080i @60hz. Why does it say 60 hz when the 120 hz is set to its highest?

I have NO clue??? mine is crystal clear.......and it is a flat screen.....either works or it doesn't.....my advice.....swap it for another.....and make sure you have a good power supply....

Greg, I am also watching the Olympics on Comcast HD and not experiencing a lot of the pixelation you mention, mostly during the fastest figure skating spins, and camera moves on other sports. In fact, I am blown away with the picture on this event. I have not changed my 120-Hz (whatever its called) setting from the factory preset, and it would be the only thing I suggest looking at. I also have the picture set on "Movie" mode, the others presets are just too saturated, bubble-gum colors... though I doubt that makes a difference. Hope you can resolve this.

I'm glad I found your post Alan... I almost sold this TV over the OPC issue. I found it terribly irritating, but turning it on and to 1 fixed it.
