TV; Samsung 46″ LCD HDtv. 18 months old
Signal; ALL digital cable via a PVR;
Problem:- picture quality with an HD signal is great! as are some of the non HD programs BUT; Some of the non HD programs, particularly the low-light ones and in the darker areas show a “smeared” effect during movement compared to the brighter areas of the picture. eg ; a full facial shot of a person talking will display with a sharp-ish (lighter) face but with the darker hair smeared so that no hair strands are visible as the head moves around…..like a photo taken with a too slow shutter speed. On a soccer field, a close up of a player with the grass in the background is fine until the player moves and the camera follows him, then the grass is blurred (smeared) out into a mono-tone green. All these “smeared” effect areas will sharpen up as the image becomes stationary. It would appear that the darker areas are slower to regenerate than the lighter areas.
There are lots of forums out there addressing this LCDTV poor picture quality but I haven’t found an answer that deals with my concerns. – - Can any one shed any light on this one? Also would Plasma have the same problem?
