Plasma tv motion artifacts severe! What gives?

Posted by audiomman on September 25, 2007 at 20:27:55:
I don't get the rave. I have a CRT Toshiba cinema series 34" wide/flat with HDMI and " thought " I had the need for a plasma. Well, I brought home a Samsung LNT-4245 / 720p which sure looked great at the store, but the pixlated motion artifacts are buggin the hell outta me. Oh yes, it has slightly better saturated colour, but overall, I found this tv, and many others to not even be as good as what I already have, what gives?!!!
This tv by rights, should be huge strides over the CRT type. I am using a Starchoice HD-505 box, DVI-HDMI cable, and a nice power cable from the TV. The plasma sets are supposed to have superior motion specs over the LCD's, but if this is as good as it gets, I'll stick with what I have. Am I missing something here, and adjustment, setting? ANY SUGGESTIONS ?!
