ok so the diffrence between p and i is?

P is better. That's all you need to know.

Go for 1080p not 1080i if you want a all singing all dancing pic.

I've got the 1080 turbo.

If I had the choice, I'd have a proper (CRT) telly, but no-one seems to sell them anymore.

That's the best advice. Wouldn't touch either plasma or L.C.D, personally. Saying that though, with the crap they're throwing out via digital broadcast these days, and the crap processing circuitry which seems to be used with most T.V's I've seen, pictures can't really get any worse whatever you get.

Interlaced and Progressive scan, the pic on a 1080p (progressive scan) doesn't pixcellate as muchas, oh read here:http://www.videotapestock.com/hd10vs10whdi.html

cheers,cool link,even i understand that

Right, go get a projector.

The "burn in" effect from Plasma is also not an issue if your not showing still images and if you turn the contrast down from the default high setting.

Ironically, however, thanks to the likes of the news channels and such, screen burn has a higher probability of occuring these days than it used to have. Channel 5 is about the only channel which uses a soft logo that I can think of offhand. The news tickers and hard logos can induce screen burn over time.

They can be programmed to "screen wipe" at set intervals to prevent this and set to extended life.

With the prices nowadays you can get better than LG. They used to use phillips gubbins but dont know what they use now.

Fairly recent feature, I assume? How do they work that one then?

im guessin u have sumthin to do with tvs work wise??lol
and so i should go samsung then?

[Antshiel]

Nope 6 yrs, go into menu and select screen wipe and then select every 5 to 60mins.
Then the screen goes through white to black then back to pic.
If you go into adsa or tecso and the screens are white grey or black for about 60 secs it's wiping the screen.

Nope, i read up a lot before i bought both of mine. I did fit the wall brackets though. For the price, yes. Go into somewhere like pcworld or comet and have a play with the pics on tvs and see the difference, samsung pic was a lot crisper than some bravias.
