Re: Any recent thoughts on the Samsung Tantus?

206.175.235.2

I recently purchased the 27" Tantus (TSK2792F)which I use almost exclusively to watch VHS video tapes and DVDs. The pictures from both sources are excellent. However, the Tantus doesn't appear to accept the 480p progressive scan output from my Toshiba SD-5109 DVD player, only the 1080i interlaced output (which, if I understand the TV owner's manual correctly, the Tantus then converts to 480p). When the DVD player's progressive scan output is connected to the TV's component video input, I end up with a "split screen," doubled picture. On the other hand, the 1080i output connected to the TV's component video input works perfectly. So ... if you buy the Tantus, don't spend additional money to upgrade to a progressive scan DVD player.
