Samsung Lcd Hdtv -whats It's Native Display?
« on: February 14, 2006, 04:55:00 PM »

Hey everyone,
I was wondering what Samsungs LCD HDTV's native display is? I own the HDTV and here is the link to it on Samsung.com:
LN-R238W

I can't seem to find it, does anyone know?
Thanks,
-Vic
*Stupid question but does this HDTV have to be SET to 720p?*

the native resolution is 1366x768. 720p is 1280x720 so basically as most lcd hdtvs its pretty much native 720p you can set it to output in 1080i (1920x1080) but you monitor doesn't have the true resolution to display it so it will convert it back down to 720p so to get the best picture (less conversion = best) set the 360 to 720p.

but check it out yourself and see what looks best to you smile.gif

Thanks, I really appreciate it. I have had my Xbox360 set to 720p from day one, it does look the best. It was just the other day I was at Best Buy and I played their 360 kiosk and suprisingly it looked a bit more clear, I guess it was just the lighting in the store.
Thanks for your help, it's greatly appreciated!  biggrin.gif

I doubt it was the lighting, that tv is one of the best hdtvs out now, its contrast racio is one of the highest too, 3000:1 most tvs only have 1/8th that

There are minor adjustments ie Dynmaic, standard, colour warmth adjustments. there are also colour weakness adjustments.

I think on certain games the colour is not as good as component but the extra sharpness gained more than compensates. I think it has more to do with the VGA output on the Xbox itself as when i have my PC plugged into the the VGA port on the TV the picture is incredible.
