Is this TV formatted with CCFL or Direct array LED ?

It is a direct array LED tv. It wouldn't call itself an LED tv if it didn't use light-emitting-diodes.

LED means that the CCFL backlighting has been replaced with light emitting diodes. "Full array" means that these diodes are behind the 'entire' LCD panel, not just along the edge. I have this particular TV and it is the 'edge lit' design. Full array is definitely more expensive - perhaps Panasonic has introduced same in some of their new 2013 models.

Most TV's will only include the basic cables (power only), there is component in (one set of connectors) on the back of the LED. You would have to buy HDMI cables and anything else you need. You can find out more about the TV on the Philips website (user manuals) at http://www.usa.philips.com/c-p/29PFL4508_F7/4000-series-led-lcd-tv/support/. Also more pictures on the Philips site and on this site http://www.mohamedbhimji.com/philips-29pfl4508f7-29-inch-60hz-led-hdtv-black

Mine too. Given the language issues in the user manual... I'm sure this is just a firmware variation. I also noticed that the menu says infrared LED, while the LED on my unit is visibly white.

They're the same thing. Led is just the type of backlighting the TV has. It's still an LCD.

Technically LEDs are one type of LCD, but generally "LCD" refers to CCFL-based LCD displays (that are disappearing from the market). The Samsung spec says this model is LED, which is good.

whatever was on my computer monitor is how it showed on the tv (55 inch led). there is a format button on my remote that allows me to change the ratio on the tv though. but hasn't been needed using this.

Most LED tv'a use some form of CPU enhancement of motion to reduce blurring and supposedly add realism. They don't always work as a positive they are easily toggled off.

Yes my tv's corners are bright. This tv is not worth the money. It also is not 120hz.

Check the service tag on Dell's site and it should give you a list of hardware, or open the half of the laptop that contains the screen and look at the back of it. Regardless of whether its CCFL or LED, just go with LED and get the right video cable for the motherboard. Going with LED will cost you about 1/3 the price. CCFL is not mass produced anymore.

yeah... thats the edge lit LED. These sets have been discontinued by Samsung and a rumoured 9 series is on its way. Either way, if you go the LED route, it should have local dimming, like Samsungs 8500. There are also a few LGs and I believe a SONY that has it. But probably all future LED sets that come out will use this tech. so you will just have to play the waiting game. but i'm sure the cost will be higher. i think this plasma would be "good enough" (a relative term as this set is probably better than 98% of the sets out there!). and a heck of a lot cheaper!

The output is standard composite output . It has a very good picture even at night. I will be ordering more.

This TV has different "Scene" settings which it selects based on the input type. You can also change them by the remote control. I find all of them to look dark and have a color cast except for the "standard" one.

With the old type of LCD CCFL some of them may have got hot. They used fluorescent lamps but led lights burn very cool so I could not see it being an issue on any LED TV unless for some reason the power supply got hot which should not happen.

This is a revised answer and supercedes all my posts below. I got two answers from LG regarding what optical output format they support. The latest which I strongly believe is correct is: the basic tv's support AC3 only. The smart TV's support both AC3 and PCM. But I highly suggest you go to the live chat on the LG website and ask yourself. Took me 93 seconds.
