Got cheated buying P42ST30D from girias kalyan nagar. On 09.05.12, Girias delivered me a used (148 counts and 250..hrs) one with image retentions and airtel dth logo burn-in, they defended themselves saying "no stock" and take refund if doesn't want to keep. Panasonic guys too hand washed after taking photographs from all the angles of the tv screen and finally said that its a dealers mistake & and suggested me to take REFUND if dealer do not replace.

I think it is thier duty to ensure that customers who buy new TV are given a new one properly , not a demo piece.

While at it , ask for refund. Take pictures of the TV + usage hours + burn-in along with the bills just for future sake.

Get the refund and buy it from panny dealer directly.

Even i had a horrible experience with Girias

Hoping it comes down to that once 50ST50 is out and its price drops after a few months.

Re: Panasonic ST30 Owners Thread : 3D SBS isssue

Hi folks,

I am facing a problem with 3d SBS(side by side) content.

I tried playing a few SBS rips via laptop->MediaPlayerClassicHomeCinema->HDMI->42ST30. I see 2 images side by side as expected. Now in automatic mode, the TV detects it as 3D content and tries to switch to 3D. But on using 3D glasses, I see some 3D but the 2 images are not completely aligned. I see ghosts of one of one of the 2 images displayed a few inches to the left. I.E. it looks like the alignment of the 2 contents is off by a few inches. I tried manually selecting SBS option in 3D settings, but the output remains same as above.

Has anyone faced similar issue and overcome it? Has it to do with the original source content issue or is the TV unable to handle the SBS content?

Thanks!

Talked to Devi International. They don't have 50ST30 in stock and have no idea if they are going to get it. ST50 availability is only at the end of the month - they have no idea on pricing.
