Hi friends ,
My cousin want to buy LCD 40"/42" LCD TV,
after seeing lot of reviews in this forum and internet
we had finalized 42 ld460 or 42 ld650
we went for audition, keeping some movie formats in pen drive
LG and Samsung playing almost all Videos ( both not playing Vob format, for me Vob format is not much important ) . But sadly LG is failed to play sound for videos encoded with DTS sound. When i ask showroom staff they had no clue why it is not playing sound ( DTS sound is very important for me , because DTS is common in most of the movies we download from internet )
After we came home and searching the Internet for this problem , we got to know that LG won't support DTS sound , because they didn't paid license fees for DTS, that's why we wont see DTS logo in lg products .:sad:
The LG HT554TH Home Cinema and the Mystery of the Missing DTS Sound From "Ask The Experts: TechLore
( it is really bad even my old Philips dvd player has DTS logo , i dont know why LG had not paid DTS license fees up to now )
But some good news is DTS is now Partners with LG from April 2010 , which means Now LG supports DTS for Future TV's ( 2011 versions or may be 2010 Christmas versions ) :clapping:
DTS | Corporate | DTS Partners with LG to Deliver Superior Audio to Digital Televisions and DMPs
My Question is since now LG has paid license to DTS , can we update firmware to play DTS sound ?
if we can update firmware , we are even interested to buy LG 47" because we will get free blu ray player, if we cant update firmware even that blu ray player cant play DTS sound because it is also from LG & they didn't mention DTS for bluray player in specs ( i think this product was also made before April because there is no DTS logo )
LG Blu Ray HD DVD Players India Model BD370
we don't want to break a deal just for DTS sound, because every other feature is really good in this TV. I hope we can update firmware
