I was wondering what would happen when the hdtv runs out of hrs of life? I read the difference between the lcd and plasma and they were saying 60,000 hrs and then the bulb would have to be replaced? How long do hdtv’s actully last??

Also it is really worth getting the extended warranty or protection plan when you buy it??

We are looking at buying our first HDTV for Christmas this year. What is the difference between plasma and LCD? 720 vs 1080? Also, what additional accessories are required (cables, etc). Do I need to have it installed professionally or can I do it myself? Thanks!

I have noticed clear lines scrolling up my hdtv. I can see them because they are slightly lighter than the rest of the picture. They scroll very slowly from the bottom to the top. It is the most noticeable when I am watching something in hd. The only hd content that I get is through my cable but I notice it when using any other components (i.e. Wii, DVD player). All the components are hooked up to my TV through a stereo receiver using component cables.

I just got a HDTV and I don’t have satellite or cable. I’m just using a indoor power antenna with it to receive over the air broadcasts. I’m receiving both the analog and digital channels, but the the audio coming out from the digital version of each channel seems much lower. I’m not an expert and wanted to know what is causing this and how can I increase the audio output from my digital channels. Do I need a special or better antenna? I appreciate any helpful suggestions.

I know HDTV’s are notorious for their built in speakers sound quality, so I was just wondering if there was one out there with some good, ready to go speakers.
If someone could just tell me 1 HDTV with better than average sound quality, they get best answer. I’m fully aware that a home theater sound system sounds better than a TV’s internal speakers.

I recently bought a LG-42LG50 HDTV and I love it, but I have a problem with the speaker buzz. I’ve connected my laptop computer to it through a VGA-to-VGA cable with 1/8th to 1/8th audio, and when it’s connected I hear the buzzing sound come from the tv speakers especially when I increase the volume.
Any ideas?

My laptop plays Blu-ray films and has a HDMI socket. My HDTV also has a HDMI socket so should be able to play Blu-Rays. I have connected the two via a HDMI socket and inserted a Blu-Ray into the laptop but it won’t show up on the TV screen (everything else such as desktop and internet shows though).

Is there a way to watch Blu-Rays on the TV using my laptop?

We’re looking at buying a new TV and we deffinitly want a flat screen. However, all the flat screens that we’ve looked at are HDTV. We’re not planning on getting HDTV and we just have plain cable, so wouldn’t it be a waste of money to buy an HDTV if we don’t even plan on getting HD? Or when you buy an HDTV does it automatically just have high definition? Ah, someone help me out here! I don’t get it!
ugh, I knew I was going to get an answer like that. No, I’m sure I DON”T want HDTV, my cable is included in my rent right now and if we switch to anything else we’ll have to continue to pay the same amount of rent but also pay the seperate cable bill.
Wow, confusing!! So are you saying that in a couple years we’re all going to be forced to get HDTV??

Our new TV can pick up digital channels through the antenna. What is this? Is this HDTV?
