I just got a Panasonic 37PX80 yesterday, and it is a lovely looking thing. But I'm having some teething problems I wanted to ask about.
When watching SD programmes, some of them are a little blurry. I expected this would be case with some viewing, but any tips on how to minimise it would be much appreciated.
More troubling, when watching the football last night, the white lines on the pitch looked like they had diagonal black stripes, and when the camera panned the lines had a ripple effect - kind of like looking at a hologram. This was really off-putting, and I'd really appreciate any advice on what the issue might be.
Finally, I own a Topfield PVR, and am facing some compatibility issues. I know at least one regular poster on this forum uses as Topfield with a HDTV (are you out there Professorhat?), and I thought there might be some solutions.
- when bringing up the 'now and next' panel (when pressing the right arrow button), its lower half is often concealed below the screen. This seems mainly to happen when the Auto function is resizing 4:3 sources to 16:9. Is there any way of getting around this without having to change the format every time?
- when bringing up the EPG or Archive, the Panasonic seems to resize the Topfield image a second after it appears, making it a very 'jumpy' transition. Again, any tips for getting around this would be great.
Thanks in advance.
