Visually this device is very nice to look at. The picture makes a lot of her, especially absolutely amazing in HD resolution. The sound is not comparable with a hi-fi system, however, to use better than expected very good. The media player works fine, it is also the connection of passive external hard drives via USB possible. Unfortunately, it was not possible for me digital cable TV (Cable DTV) receive. (Cable Germany - connection available) I have to say in fairness that I do not know 100% whether it is on TV or on my connection, but as I have read from various reports, but that's in LG TVs are not uncommon. Recommended is then set to the location on "Finland" or similar, has after many attempts but does not work with me.
But what has finally moved me to return the device is the lack of connections. The LG 42LV3400 has no headphone jack !!! Also no analog audio out jack is present (optical audio output is available - but uses me just nothing). While there is the possibility of a headphone using an adapter (not supplied) over the Skart port on TV to connect, but the only Skart port would then also occupied.
For the price my unit is simply too inflexible. Although the picture is really very good, but the connectivity simply unsatisfactory.
