Congrats to Phani and hi all,
I bought 42 X30D from Hypercity, Inorbit mall Hyd. Cost me INR 38000. No exchange no free gifts. Yet to get the 3 yrs warranty document. Set is wall mounted now. My first few observations:
- SD picture quality is good. Dishtv channels look nice. But looks like I will have to move to HD transmission soon to get better performance.
- Plays various formats through USB port when I am using my 8G pen drive.
- .mkv format files with high resolution are played with jitters, though a little low resolution .mkv files are played flawlessly.
- Doesn't recognise my WD HD 150G. :sad:
- In the booklet it is mentioned that it plays flash drives with FAT format, but in the shop one iOmega HD with NTFS format was being played smoothly.
- Connected my Creative 2.1 speakers with the headphone socket and selected the audio as TV+external and getting the sound through all the speakers.
- As of now using the lower picture settings for initial 15-20 days, but still if the light in the room is low/very low the picture quality for the movies through USB is really awesome.
- Reflection is there, but not a problem unless the lamp/tube is visible in the screen.
- Remote is very handy with less number of buttons.
@PhaniKumar and other owners of X30D, which Hard disks other than iOmega have you tried successfully with this set as my WD hard disk doesn't work with this.
Also need suggestion regarding the surge protector requirement for this set. Or do we need anything else to handle the voltage variation and fluctuation. Saw one Belkin Gold surge protector for INR 1600 @ Reliance digital with some warranty coverage upto INR 100000.
Thanks.
