what cant you get to work well with the duo2 ?
I got a new Denon AVR X-2000 amp and I want everything to go via the amp, Duo2 and PS3 but I can't get auto switching to work correctly and the PS3 drives me up the wall, as soon as I use it the TV looses its input about 3 times when a DVD is loading.
Performance wise it is great but its the tweaking that is driving me mad.
i retired my surround sound amp a few years back , just as well my kid winds the tv volume up full if i still had the amp plugged in im sure id be getting eviction notices

ive had a toshiba 843 55" for a year and watched 3d just a few times!! my connected tv youtube has been discontinued and i am still waiting for the itv player as promised [coming soon on purchase] fantastic pic and a good piece of furniture with a 5 year warranty, browser is slow also, for £1700 at the time with a years free interest on pay off. seems ok but tosh lack apps, sammy seem best
a lot of companies seem to promise stuff that dont work .
i had the smart remote with my samsung at the time they advertised you could view the tv on it , but its never worked .
you are right there. a lot of models are regionalised as well. i tried to dload rte player for my smart tv as well. seems my model number wasnt sold in ireland. happy with samsung tho. bbc , itv, ch4, ch5 players and youtube tried contacting samsung direct who told me about codes for regions.
lets get back on topic...
3D = the nuts
if you dont like it, then dont buy a 3D-TV - i can assure you i wont be getting bored with it, especially not with 3 x 3D channels at my disposal.
Don't agree with much you say but on this I do
you know you'd all be lost without my superior knowledge!Don't agree with much you say but on this I do
i've applied to go on countdown dont you know
Now that I would like to see, keep us posted :respect-047:
there are some things in life that come "as is" whether you like it or not, and at the moment pretty much all these tv,s have 3d built in, so buying a good one with no inbuilt 3d is not really a valid option
when I bought my car it has a cigarette lighter built in, but I dont smoke, but still bought the car
my wife will go in a pub with me even though she does not drink alchohol, its a fact that they all sell it however
you can buy a house with a garage even if you cannot drive and do not own a car
granada beam soaps down my aerial even though I hate them all with a passion, but I still tune the channels in even though I refuse to watch the soaps or any of these stupid reality shows - especially the voyeuristic ones or any by syco (f*** him)
if I were buying a new tv it would be a smart tv like the samsung ones bought by sonic1 and others on this forum, 3d or no 3d
BUT, the 3d part would be ignored the same as its ignored on my spiderbox or my duo, it does not stop me buying the item or items, even if some of it goes unwanted and unused
so something like a samsung series 8 would be my choice (even if it is a 3d tv) , but **** 3d ! as its a gimmick
that is still my opinion as it was earlier in this thread
I've recently bought a Samsung 64" smart plasma TV. There is not a lot of programming in 3D but the ones I've watched have been great.
Make the room dark and sit at the optimum distance straight in front of the screen. You are then "immersed" in the picture as there are no clues from the periphery.
I'm pretty sure the large screen greatly enhances the 3D experience.
I really enjoy watching 3D on my 55 inch Sammy Smart tv.
I would prefer not to have to wear the glasses, but it's no big deal and doesn't take anything away from my enjoyment.
dog-man
The posters above make me feel inadequate with my little 46" TV :ack2:
Super Sunday on my 55" LG 3D passive is like being there.
Shame there is not more content and shame the BBC don't deem it worthy of continuance. 2D to 3D could be better but still adds depth.
46" Sammy upstairs is a 'Smart' TV but never again. Better off having an STB that you can update yourself.
Now, with the DUO2, just spoilt for choice as to what to use next. Duo2 3D switch is superb as it not only switches the gui but selects 3D on my TV also.
Films like Avitar are worth watching in 3d but like most say its a novelty that will soon wear off, i have a LG smart tv and its the real deal. has youtube, netflix the lot and is a 3d. think its 50 inch and values at £1.130
I have a 50" panasonic 3d routed through my onkyo a/v receiver.....apart from the footy sometimes I never use the 3d, think its more watchable in hd.Its a smart tv but I find my Duo with all the available apps theres I hardly use the internet on it. I dont think 3D has caught on
I only have a 40 inch samsung F7000 starting to feel really bad and ashamed to go out now
Nothing to be ashamed off m8, I have 42inch JVC made by Vestel and I am a happy man. I thought there is life outside the living room and spent the money I saved on a quality weekend out with my family.
