Ok thanks but can you do a video perhaps ? I guess no 4.2.2 decoding btw ?
 
Can you get the BBC UHD clip I wonder on your 650V ?

I see Tesco are selling the LG 55UH650V for only £550 now, but says there is no freesat, are their two versions of this TV one with only Freeview I wonder ?
Tesco direct: LG 55UH605V Smart 4K Ultra HD 55 Inch LED TV with Freeview HD

One is the 650V, the other is the 605V ?

Regardless, all manufacturers supply different models for continental Europe and the UK, where we get the subsidy - not always passed on - for the enhanced EPG, logo, manual and packaging.

Oh opps yes two different models, delete that then !
 
Ive just bought the LG 43UH650 so Im looking forwad to playing with it next week and seeing the capabilites of modern tvs.

The ancient old 28" Panny crt now has serious image deficiencies, several blue blobs on the screen which are slowly growing, so its been declared EOL......
 
Probably just needs degaussing ......
 
650V I think. It wont be a particularly smart tv - no point connecting it to the internet on our lousy bb connection. Might try some mkv top of the pops files on it though :D

Over the weekend I shall be doing a major reorganisation of the tv corner & seeing if I can get the 19E satellite feed working properly.

Edit - Yup its the 650V

Has to be better than to 10 year old Panny crt its replacing - the tube is tired & its going to be a bugger to move as itsa complete beast of a set! :-rofl2
 
Get a smart remote for it, voice commands zoom and screen shots, hook a hard drive up to it for all your music etc, this is one smart tv,

EDIT

Forgot to mention the picture quality, you'll be amazed

Don't forget your new TV has wifi :-rofl2

Another nice feature for us satellite enthusiasts is the multi screen you can set what hdmi port you want to use at any time, for instance below screen shot is tv tuner to the right on 19.2 4K/HDR channel while scanning on a set top box on the left screen,

You can have up to five satellite boxes connected if you wanted and swap what two boxes you want to monitor, now that's what you call smart :)

What is S2X actually? I am very surprised any freesat tv's have a blind scan tbh

I have my eye on the OLED B6V from LG...does anyone know if this model has blindscsn etc? Really want to know if it can decode snd display 4k direct from satellite btw

Anyone know all this ?
TIA

You would be better off with the OLEDB6 as it uses a true 10 bit panel and has a good chance of being updated to HLG standard as well, the UH650V is only 8bit + 2 Dithering to make up for 10 bit HDR

It wont affect my viewing as its primarily aimed at the US its of little importance to us in Blighty for a good few years
