What were my criteria for purchase.
- 47 "screen size
- As energy efficient as possible
- LED
- DVB-T / C / S / S2
- CI +
- WIFI
- USB
- If 3D, the passive polarization system
These things I have everything and a little more now get with the LG 47LM760S.
It comes with 2 remote controls, the matching batteries,
4x POL glasses, 1 POL clip for eyeglass wearers and 2 Dual Play glasses. Then another 2 cable ties,
Scart and cinch adapter and ultimately the builder / user manual
The construction was very simple. For this you needed no instruction manual.
The chrome base is very solid and keeps the TV very well.
You can easily turn the TV on both sides.
Now the rough initial setup. Connected DVB-T antenna, then satellite cable off
screwed and off we went. And the initial setup you will be asked the same,
the second remote control to file this Magic Remote, to be some
Function tests with this through. Now the station search, via satellite, it goes
very fast, DVB-T takes longer compared. It may be that not all stations on
DVB-S / S2 be found, this can be per frequency start a manual search.
And up here you need normally no manual. But at the latest when
the station sorting it falters. for example I know to this day what the green
Button 'move' to be good. Stations can only move (for me that's sort)
if this assigns a new number. Therefore it is good that the first 100 seats
remain free. But in addition, that there is a channel list for each of the 4 tuners (analog 1/3 digital)
are and the plus radio list. This must be sorted separately. It takes a while,
so about 1-2 hours if you so 200 transmitter assigns a new location numbers.
After sorting, you can still assign the transmitter 4 favorite groups, which does not
necessarily has the advantage, because you can not can zap up and down the program button
that is only possible through the complete list. Also you can delete unnecessary channels,
maximum skip.
Once that's done, I have connected the AV receiver. There's also my HTPC
connected, what I also look SKY. Now that the sound in my view not so
is exhilarating, to come through the AVR sound. For this to work, it must be the
Connect the AVR HDMI1 because just as the sound via the HDMI cable goes to the AVR, The
also called 'Return Channel'. In addition, you must activate the TV 'Simplink' and 'ARC'.
At the AVR Yamaha you have in the HDMI Settings 'Control'ON' and 'ReturnChan'On'
Set. Advantage is in the whole, which runs not only the sound through the AVR, you can also
control over the TV, the volume of the AVR and the AVR is made with TV and back
turned on. The latter works but after a certain time after the TV is off,
no more. Weis, if that is not so intended.
Now about SmartTV. For this, the TV either via LAN or WLAN have the router
get connected. I've been using this wireless connection, which also works very well.
There is a home menu and a MyApps menu. You have to at least 3 services
login if you want to use it extensively, this is the LG-premium service, so
you can download apps, then with max cathedrals, so you an online video store
can use and Youtube, so you can create as a video watch list itself.
HbbTV is available via the red button when you switch the transmitter appears
bottom right to the invitation. And yes, the 2012 Olympics Live-Streams
function in this model.
If one wants to look at his own video over the network, you have to SmartShare on TV
Enable. If you do not have 'NAS', but a PC with Windows 7, for example, of the same
Network, then you should enable the media streaming at this PC in the sharing menu.
Add to that the video, music and photos folder to add the default media folders and
already you can play most of the files on the TV. Previously, I had to realize,
not able to see all pictures and videos with DTS soundtrack is played.
After everything is set. Have I tried the picture with test images as far as
adjust. In addition I have also turned off some image optimizer.
Now I have looked at everything from images to 3D video once briefly.
I must say, for the screen size, the SD picture is absolutely great, surely you recognize
yet the difference to an HD image. But I find it amazing that despite the image
disconnected noise reducer yet is so good. But the effect was then WoooW
with 3D. In addition I have only times '3D Grand Canyon' looked at the beginning of.
Since the effect is just starting over very well.
Panel-quality, how to judge the. As we go on, because many speak of Flashlights,
Clouding, banding and tearing. Why can one not speak German. I love it
annoying when you then dealt with the topic, located only times Terminology
must seek to do so.
With the right settings, I can not see any ghosting so far, not even
with live football in HD, bucking I've only had then, when I am the HTPC Hz Number
not had to 50Hz. Spotting is really only fully black
Picture quite minimal recognizable, because you have to but look carefully. Dark stripes I
so far only live football (HD) recognized throughout 2. What one sees there more, these are the
Reduce halos in the corners, but I went through the manual settings extent
can that they really / detects black bars only at black background.
But now again the positive. The large remote is cleared and can be good
use, beginning with the use of the cursor is often times on the home button, the
but disappears after a short time. The second remote control (Magic Remote) is a beautiful thing.
From the Operation ago reminded me this on the Wii. This works via radio.
Actually, you can use the Magic Remote as good as ever, unless you want to
(ie HbbTV) use the media portals the sender, because they will not work.
This is so even in the manual, what a pity, because that would be great
Remote control more of a dust collector.
The WiFi works for me in connection with a Netgear N900 in the 5GHz band absolutely
easily. Another feature is Intel's 'Wireless Display' short 'WiDi'. To do this
you activate the TV 'WiFi Screenshare' and have a PC / Laptop with Intel wireless adapter,
Intel 'WiDi' support. I own one and have this feature several times now
used. For this you must have installed but also the right software.
In order for a connection should work. This works almost like
as with Bluetooth. Laptop recognizes WiDi-enabled device, the first connection is on
TV displayed a password, this one enters the laptop, after confirmation, the TV is
recognized on a laptop as 2.Monitor and an additional 2-channel audio connection is established.
Under normal conditions, then you have a FullHD image and can thus play everything.
The only drawback that I see so far is the slightly delayed display and operation,
so you can live.
Finally, the 3D feature. These must be defined by selecting for active, what
Source material is present. Sky 3D and the Astra 3D demo channel yes send in Side by Side (SBS).
If you activate this, 3D works so far without any problems. The 3D effect is with me
in all viewing positions from 2-3m visible at great distance. Now and then one sees times
Ghosting, but it holds up well in borders. Very good, I find the included
Clip for eyeglass wearers. I personally find it very uncomfortable to put 2 glasses.
Have also still an active 3D system, because I always found uncomfortable, the size and
the weight of the active glasses, especially because I have my normal glasses.
Also, I found the very dark picture very uncomfortable, This one now used by LG
passive polarization system I find there absolutely pleasant in comparison even if 3D
is not reproduced in full HD. So that I can live.
What I have noticed very postive that the power consumption is very low, is mine
he betw. 45 and 60W, depending on the brightness. If you switch the TV off is the power consumption
less than 0.5W. According display my power meter actually at 0,0W, but I think,
it comes as a result of the very low power consumption to incorrect display.
Also works for timeshift / recording an external 2.5 "hard drive without external
Power supply.
Now the negative.
Since my EPG think of first. Unfortunately, the EPG must after each off the TV's
be re-read, because the data is apparently not saved.
The heist, if you make up his television evening via the EPG or longer term
Wants to record programs, you must advance through zap the relevant channels, actually
Too bad. And when the EPG actively using just dead silence in the room, as neither
a sound comes, somewhere comes a small TV window that it's better to be seen
in the home menu.
Speaking during the recording, if one takes as what, you can not
switch, since only stay 2 alternatives for this period, either off because
you will be asked if you want to continue recording. What surprises me doing that
needed without picture and sound still 26W and not despite recording
at least one other station can look at the same transponder that can my
HTPC better. Or you can use during the period external input sources.
Then the home menu, you can only partially make yourself just the premium menu
can not take off. Also you can use Apps only when the up
LG Premium Service has registered, because even if already an icon available, some are still
not installed. The browser works fine, by the Magic Remote, can be
these operate relatively well, then I still surf rather than a real PC.
At least the My Apps menu can be completely designed by you.
Now again to the station sorting. I find it rather strange that the channels you so
must sort cumbersome, especially that you can not delete any superfluous transmitter.
Operating instructions, because you have to really ask LG whether because the Explanation of Terms
Operation and instructions defined incorrectly. For most settings are found neither
the supplied manual, nor in the instructions in the TV / Internet something. You have to then
Find out for yourself by trial and error. Here I come back to the simple example
Sorting channels back. As I wrote, the one on the issue only short
Satzfetzen place.
Since there are still some more examples. Especially for non-technical people
is absolutely incomprehensible. I can see one that is an instruction manual
nowadays for such a device does not have to mitliefern in paper form, but at least should
the electronic manual really all settings with all pros and cons
and any warnings it received. This is incorrect settings and operating errors
preprogrammed.
Lastly, the topic 'Restart'. So somehow the TV make it so far, at least once
reboot day. I've been so on a mobile phone / smartphone, PC / Laptop
(Since Windows 7) or the old 32 'LCD TV for many years never experienced.
Up to 2 times where either an app or the Home Menu has even hung,
I felt the 'restart' less problematic, but if such a thing during a recording
happens, then I think it's then quite annoying.
I, that something like this can happen to anyone my, but so often? The one where the real
can reproduce, the 'WiFi Screenshare', but otherwise it does not happen only from a
Application, but also if you look at something for a while, without
even the remote control used to have. Certainly it may be that currently the TV
runs almost 10-12 hours a day and that it returns to the normal workday at my house
is cut in half, but I feel that even be relevant.
I hope that there still is doing something at LG, otherwise the unit returns.
My Conclusion:
The LGLM760s is of the features mentioned here the best TV for me. He offers
for me everything I wanted and then some. The picture quality is, in my view
absolutely great, does not matter whether SD, HD or 3D. If the quality of sound output on the
built-in speaker has not done very much, because I have a little more for the price
expected. The connectivity is a bit overwhelming.
Use in everyday life with the Magic Remote is absolutely simple. Just a pity the
this is at HbbTV without any function. Certainly is a few the Panel on Quality
a higher level, but I find this absolutely for the price ok.
Also the power consumption is extremely low. When I think that my old LCD TV 32 '
130W required and the new 47 'now only betw. 40-60W is, that's very
impressive. What I find absolutely negative, are the almost once a day unmotivated
ReStart's and the absolutely poor manual. I'm at the restart of Use
from a software problem and hope therefore that this is still not resolved via an update.
But even when the operating instructions should be time to do something at LG.
Because the Restart's and the extremely poor manual, which is also very for me
is relevant, I forgive only 3 stars. The latter is absolutely nothing not technically
so savvy people who also like want to get the most out of your TV out.
