even commercial displays are smart tvs now since it's not worth it to build 2 different models, the main difference is the commercial models are targeted at playing local video/photo files as signage or being pointed at a web page production monitors usually max out at 30-42" and cost 20 grand

Panty Saluter posted:oh yeah, this is the other reason I bought the tv i have, it does 24hz. You can get 24Hz out of a PC in any number of ways. I use Plex Home Theater and it will choose to output 24Hz, 50Hz, or 60Hz based on what the content was produced at.

my tv is hooked up straight to my desktop pc and i watch movies at every framerate and play epic games on it (just finished bioshock 2, don't know why everyone said it was worse than the first one, it was actually better) and in general it is a super pro move

after you get done using the $200 color calibration programs on your tv, does it instruct you on where to place the included bags of crystals?

Endless Mike posted:lol this isn't actually true. samsung is known for putting panels with completely different lcd technologies (think ips vs. tn) into the same model of tv with no notification whatsoever of what you're getting. yeah there are exceptions, but in general if someone else has already calibrated the same model that you have then using the same settings will get you extremely close to their results. if you care about getting that last tiny bit then by all means spend hundreds of dollars on gear and many hours tweaking white-balance settings. i went down that road 10+ years ago and i'm not going back. it drives you nuts.

my new tv is here and hdmi-cec is actually working. it's like some kind of miracle. the colors are eye-searingly bright and need some major adjustment. the motion interpolation is annoying but I left it on for now

My steamlink turns on and activates the right input when i turn on a controller, and my dvd player responds to controls from the tv remote even tho it's on the other side of a wall. loving Smooth.

I turn the FireTV on and the TV turns on. Turn of the FireTV and the TV stays on. I found out recently that if you turn off the TV first it WILL turn off the FireTV.

Yeah it's actually a thing with Samsung tvs. People buying them and returning them until they get one with an IPS panel. Not unlike Nintendo with their random 3ds screens.
