Brilliant recording and live TV functionality May 27, 2008 ejcw (Cambridge, UK) 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
We've been looking at LCD TVs for over 12 months and finally chose this one because of the inbuilt recorder and high expert ratings. Its been incredibly useful and extremely easy to use - just select the program guide, find the program you want, click OK and a submenu comes up with "Set reminder, Record program, Record series [of this program]" - so easy. Then to view, press DVR - select the taped program and play. Also the live TV is excellent - get the kids attention without their annoyance! - just pause - then play again - even skip the ads if there's a long enough gap. My seven year old has mastered the controls so nothing too tricky there. The remote is also a universal remote which can handle DVD and VCR although our machines are quite old so none of the codes provided work unfortunately (will try and contact LG for this). So we highly recommend this TV - it was nice to not just replace our old CRT TV but to also gain extra functionality (and get rid of the freeview box). It also has a low energy rating, great picture (seemed clearer than the Sony to me), handles 1080p input (displays 1080i) and so simple to use. Others have mentioned some of the annoyances, which I agree with but after so long wondering which TV to get, I am really pleased we chose this one.
EXCEEDS EXPECTATIONS May 24, 2008 Mr Sensible 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
My main reason for buying this TV was the built in recorder.This reduces the clutter of plugs , wires, set up difficulties,and saves the cost of buying a separate recorder and cables. It all works very well,easy to set up and simple to operate.Recording is a doddle and the picture quality both live and recorded is great.It is bang up to date style wise.I paid 467 including delivery,a tv and separate dvd rcorder would be far more expensive.No doubt this type of package will be available from other top brands in the near future.They've got something to beat.
Great TV - not so good DVR May 1, 2008 M. Cox 21 out of 21 found this review helpful
This would be a great combined TV / DVR - picture is great, sounds is great, looks great, just looking forward to the firmware update - read on... After getting fed up with the problems I was getting (see below) I rang LG Customer Services and was well and truly fobbed off, so I wrote to their customer services department detailing the problems I have with this TV. I was quite shocked when yesterday I received a phone call from one of their customer services people informing me that they hope to fix the majority of the problems in a firmware upgrade. Apparently they have received quite a few letters. Basically if you have problems with this TV it's best to put it in writing to!! The address I used is: LG Electronics UK Limited Service Department 250 Bath Road Slough Berkshire SL1 4DX Below is a list of problems I have so far with this TV - some I can live with, some I can't. 1. When watching a recorded program, when a scheduled recording starts, a dialog prompts if you want to change channels (obviously you do as you want to record) - the recording is stopped and the live TV is shown. You then have to go back to your list of recordings (this part of the menu is pretty slow) and play the recording again (annoyingly it doesn't start from where it left off - you have to try and fast forward to where you were) Imagine watching a film that is 2.5 hours long and I am recording 3 hour long programs - the film would be interrupted 3 times and each time you would have to fast forward to where you were! Very annoying. 2. When watching TV and a scheduled recording starts a prompt asks me if I want to continue to change channel and record. It changes channel and you have to press back, usually missing the last part of the show you were watching. 3. So far in the brief time I have used it 3 recording have failed due to timer problems. 4. One recording would not playback as the there was a problem with the file / disk. 5. If you need to slightly change a recording timer - for instance to change it from a one off recording to a weekly one you have to enter the details completely from scratch you can't just edit the one you selected from the EPG. 6. When recording and watching live TV at the same time you loose all the ability pause, rewind, fast forward TV. 7. Pressing stop while watching a recording goes back to live TV - this should go back to the recorded TV menu so you can delete what you have just watched and choose the next thing to watch (or press exit to watch Live TV). 8. You can not use the info button during recording playback to get a synopsis of the program you are watching 9. It does not remember where you last stopped a recording. 10. I keep getting a message saying I need to re-scan as the channel information has changed on certain Channels (or some similar message) (mostly Channel 5 so far)
Pretty good LCD tv with built-in freeview recorder April 29, 2008 M. J. Millar (London, UK) 8 out of 8 found this review helpful
Overall I'm happy with this TV. The hard disk recorder can record inputs from the scart as well as freeview. So you could record from a SKY box or dvd onto the built-in hard drive. The hard drive menu & operation works ok but no-where near as well as the seperate Humax PVR9200 box which I used to have. I've set the timer & recorded progs. Playback quality is great. Watched a few footy matches too. Didn't notice any blur. I bought the CAM with a Setanta card which slots in the back of the tv. Just 25 from tesco.com with connection & 1st months viewing. I can watch Setanta via Freeview ok but not whilst I'm recording another channel.....a message appears "cannot watch a scrambled programme while recording another dtv programme" This could be a real issue which I'm not happy about. Hopefully LG will fix it in a future OTA software upgrade. It sometimes gets confused if I go thru the menus quickly. It pauses & I have to wait several secs for it to sort itself out. Again, a software upgrade should iron out those bugs. I bought it from Richer Sounds who matched the internet price with next day delivery which was 510 & offered a five year at-home guarantee for just 10% of the price, 51...bargain!!!! Great service too. Picture quality is pretty good. Screwed it to the wall which looks great! Can't complain at this price.
