Thanks all.
It is unfare for me to pick up name as i have got feedback from many of them. So thanking overall in this forum.
Here is the course of action
June 27th, 2011 : ordered LG LV 5500 from a bangalore retailer.
June 28th : delivery done.
June 29th : A LG guy comes, opens the box, sets the HDTV and configures all. I was not at home when this happenend.
June 30th : Review ( Yahoo ).
PQ : i was happy. I am not that technically good in judging the PQ, but still i was happy like a normal user.
Sound Quality : Not that great. For some ripped movies i have to increase the sound level to 50 ( 1 - 100 range ) to get clear audio. But i played a 1080p demo file ( demoworld.com) and the sound quality was clear. I suppose the audio format in the video file matters.
File formats : It recognized mkv, .ts ( i think ) and a few more formats like avi.
A few MKV played well. For a few it simply says "Audio format not supported ".
i think it works with ac3 and not DTS. ( i am not sure, but will find out ).
Hard disk size : i tried 1 TB wester digital external hardrive. I was able to browse. I odd thing is when ur navigating for sometime, you some how swithch from usb to some other interface like HDMI or Composite. So we have to go back to USB again.
Interesting one's
- if ur playing a mkv file, the tv breaks the movie into chapters. Instead of fast forwarding a movie, we can navigate to a particular chapter and see the movie. It helps when u want to demo ur tv using many movies
.
- You can have a slideshow of your pics. I tried manual navigation. Slideshow i have not yet tried.
missing
- Magic wand is not available as part of this package. U have to buy seperately.
- LG wireless adapter is also not available as part of this tv. u have to buy seperately.
Tatasky HD/SD : It is yet to be installed. so cannot comment. I tried hathway SD and the quality sucks big time. So waiting to check with tatasky hd.
Interfaces : 4 HDMI, 2 USB, 1 LAN port, 1 headphone out, 1 optical out ( i remember only these.
I will update more on this.
