In addition to this, since this HDTV is 120hz, you should set your Blu-ray player to output at 24hz instead of 60hz. This will produce a picture closest to how it looked at the theater.(I'm not going to take the time explaining why you should do this, Google it if you don't believe me. For 120/240hz HDTVs, Blu-ray players should output at 24hz instead of the standard 60hz to have the best picture possible.)

Just turn the 120hz (TruMotion) feature off (the TV will still refresh at 120hz, it will just have the stupid TruMotion feature disabled) in the advanced picture options, and your problem will be solved. In addition, if you have a Blu-ray player, set it to output at 24hz instead of 60hz. Now you will have amazing picture quality.

I bought a G9 earlier at a local store, and had this same problem. On a black or dark screen, there's a big yellowish blob on the lower right portion of the LCD. I tried a second unit and had the exact same screen trouble. I never saw this problem on a camera LCD before, it can't be normal.I got a refund, but I still want a G9. I hope Canon fixes this problem. I'm afraid to buy one right now because of it.Did anyone get a G9 without the LCD light leak? Spicy Tofu, let us know if the next one is the same or not.

Our picture quality is from edge to edge except when on 4.3 format. Sounds like you may have a defective tv. We have had our tv for 2 months and no issues. Hope this helps...

Just out of curiosity what do you consider to be high response times? I use this with my 360 all the times and have not really noticed anything out of the ordinary. The thing I really don't like about this LCD is the overscan issue, which is noticeable with games. Do you have that with your DLP?

Motion blur is a very subjective thing. Everyone seems to look at it differently. In my opinion, TV's that are built for a standard refresh rate (60hz) are generally the most consistent to how they deal with motion blur, because it's a well established standard, so everyone designs for it. If you're using a non-standard refresh rate (say 120hz), then the software has to deal with modifying the input, and you have some sort of conversion going on. I've seen TV's that look *terrible* even on simple camera pan's, because they use a non-standard refresh rate and the software deals with it poorly. On the other hand, the owner of that TV swears it looks great (maybe because he shelled out $$$ for it). The absolute best thing you can do is to see it in person. That's really the only way you can tell if it's going to work for you or not. Partially as well it depends on TV settings and input source (and settings), so this is something that can be really difficult to figure out before you pull the trigger on your purchase. Fortunately Amazon does have a good return policy, so the best thing may be to buy it, try it, and return it if you don't like it.

Hi. I just bought one of these myself and have a 40 inch Samsung HD- LCD tv and I have noticed this same thing and it will look like this on some DVD's. I put the player on "Dynamic 2" setting under "adjusting the playback picture" found on page 33 of the manual and it makes the picture a little better. Try that out and I hope it helps! Jay

Take my advice and stay away. It seems to be a hit or miss with the 1600. Mine unfortunately was a miss. Lots of quality control issues for Samsung. Amazon had an alert flag on the player right after I bought mine (figures) that they were looking into the recent complaints. I see now the alert flag is off. Never did play any blu movies. Support from overseas said that the movies were too new and I would have to wait for a firmware update. Sent it back the next day and got a Sony D360 which works great. Would really liked to have the Samsung because my TV is one and it is awsome. Oh well guess I'll just have to keep another remote around. Take my advice and stay away.

I use the Optoma glasses that are 80ish $. Not sure if the Sainsonic are exactly the same quality and sync well with the projector but being a brand new product (when I got the projector in September) I wanted to make sure they are perfectly compatible. I have to say I too have an issue with the 3D but it is only happening on certain movies (Iron Man 3 so far but only tried 3 3D movies). The 3D seems to occasionally "de-sync" causing the image to be blurry. The glasses are however connected. It isn't my receiver as I tried with the PS3 plugged directly into the projector and the same happened. Given it did not happen with all the movies I'm inclined to think the problem was with the movie itself but I still thought it's good to give you a heads up.

Hi, if you are seeing these symptoms for all the 3D videos or even on on other inputs (e.g. tv programmes, blu-ray disc), then it might be an issue on the TV. If in case that it only happens for a certain 3D videos, try to check on the 3D depth adjustment and 3D glasses brightness settings on the TV. -Ely

My suggestion is to return it. It did the same thing to me. So I returned it and bought a Sony blu ray, much much better. Returning with Amazon is easy.

I have a response similar to Alston's, in that I have not experienced image blur with either games or screens with fast movements/action. The only thing I can think of is that the picture setting you are using may have the "Motion Smoother" on a different setting than it was in before. I hope that helps.

Hi Mike, Good question, I'll give you my "best guess" answer. I have had this great TV since April and searched the web for the same information. First, its not bad right out of the box. Second, seems the recommended settings vary for 2D and 3D, ambient light conditions and to some degree the signal source each of which can ALSO have a range of settings. I have left the settings on the signal source devices at default levels and made the suggested adjustments on the TV. I have the Spears & Munsil HD Benchmark Blu-ray DVD but have not used it with this TV, as yet. I have used the settings found at http://www.soundandvision.com/content/samsung-un75es9000-3d-lcd-hdtv-settings and just tweaked them a little bit for personal taste. Good place to start. Please advise if you find another source for useful settings. It's a great 2D TV and paired with a good 3D player, it does a good job of 3D as well, especially with little ambient light. Professional calibration is always an option as well. Best Regards, Marc

I am also experiencing the "green lines" in 1080p. It looks good in 1080i. I called Philips support and the rep was trying to convince me that my Samsung LN40A550 LCD was not 1080p and I should call Samsung to see why I am seeing green lines. I was also very surprised when they said nobody has ever reported this issue. He had me upload the latest firmware but my unit already had the latest. I tried anyways and it didn't do anything.Anybody solved this problem yet?

Has anyone played games on it?I just bit the bullet and bought the Samsung LN40A550 based on reviews. (Got ps3 for blue ray discs and I watch A LOT of movies.) I also like to play FPS and other games with a lot of movement and action. Has anyone noticed any sort of ghosting or blurring when they play games on it? Bad thing to wonder about AFTER I buy the tv, but I'm sure it'll still be worth it when I see my movies in a new-1080p-light.

We have the Sony 55" W900 model. We have not seen any of those issues. The picture has been very clear. Our children and grandchildren have also been watching 3D movies with no issues and this group would point it out to us very quickly. I should also point out that I did not know what banding, flashlighting, or clouding problems were, but reviewed the issues on the internet to see what I should be looking for. We have not had any of those issues.
