I just bought a 42″ Magnavox plasma tv. It looked awesome when I bought it and a few days later it got a distortion to the screen. Kind of like an interference. But it’s there no matter what input it’s on. Even on the tuner. Any answers?

1) Should I be running seperate cables to the plasma from DVD, Satallite receiver and VCR (I’ve to run component cables from DVD & sat receiver - and composite vedio cable from VCR because thats is what the output of my devices) and audio cables from these devices to Yamaha HTR6050 receiver.
2) The 2nd option is to run component and composite cables from devices to the reciever and then run single cable from Yamaha receiver to plasma TV. My plasma tv has one 29-pin DVI input where as Yahama receiver has 1 HDMI output (I’m assuming I can find HDMI to DVI cable …) In this case I think I’ve to run seperate audio cable from yamaha receiver to TV and then from receiver to home theater speakers.

Has anybody done research on such things earlier? Which option will give me better picture quality? My TV is 50” plasma with native resolution of 1366×768

Thanks a bunch for reply.

I am looking at buying between a 40 to 50 inch wide screen flat panel television and would like to know the following differences between plasma and LCD:
-cost
-performance (longevity, clarity, gaming hook ups)
-track records (proven to last)
-weight (will it be able to hang on the wall with out major damage)
-best brands for plasma and LCD
-stores with the best deals
-do you recommend getting the extended warranty
-do you recommend getting the set up (I think it is a rip but want to know how easy each of them are to set up and hang on the wall)
-best for gaming.

I will be using this TV for gaming and watching sports and am looking for something that will show the details. I also would like something that would last longer since I will be spending a lot of money on it. Thanks in advance for all the help.

I see warnings about these types of tv’s of pixels dying, especially for plasma. That doesn’t sound very good; it makes these tv’s sound unattractive to me. I’m just curious is this something you can expect at any time? After the first year? What’s common. And do you think these tv’s are still worth getting?

I want to mount a plasma TV above the fireplace, but that height is too high for viewing. I would like the plasma to be able to be lowered when watching TV and then be raised to above the fireplace when I want to use the fireplace. By the way, I am thinking about a 50″ plasma. Any ideas?

It need to articulate downwards and upwards, but I cannot find a mount that does that.

The plasma TV will be on a separate TV stand next to (not on top) of the radiator (which is covered). The distance between the TV and radiator will be about 1 to 2 feet. Is that ok or will it damage the plasma?

Stinky Feet asked:


How good is the quality for a 1080P plasma screen hooked up to a computer as a monitor? Since the price is so much cheaper than an LCD, I was wondering if it would make a big difference in clarity.

Hi, id like to know if anyone knows how people get into this business? Where do you learn? I cant find any books, or classes on it. This is very popular here in florida, I know a guy who does 2 to 3 jobs a day fulltime, thats 4 to 600 bucks a day or more for him, and I just hung my own plasma on the wall, but i know theres alot to learn for different situations. Parts, types of wall studs, wiring, please let me know if anyone knows.
