3D Technology Checklist

This product is 3D-related. To help you get a great 3D experience, use the checklist below to ensure you have everything you need. 3D viewing requires:

	A Display First, you’ll need a 3D-ready display–whether it’s a 3D HDTV, 3D projector, or 3D computer monitor. These displays have more processing power than standard 2D models for displaying 3D images in rapid succession.
	A Source Your display may be ready for 3D playback, but you’ll still need a device to read 3D content. This can be a cable box with a subscription to a 3D channel, a 3D Blu-ray Disc player, or a PlayStation 3 system.
	3D Content 3D content–the actual entertainment, in other words–will be played back using the source mentioned above, whether it’s a 3D broadcast from your cable provider, a 3D Blu-ray Disc, or a 3D video game.
	3D Glasses For now, the vast majority of 3D HDTVs require glasses for 3D viewing. Many use powered “active shutter” glasses, others polarized “passive” glasses. You’ll need one pair per viewer, and they’ll have to be compatible with your display, whether they’re the same brand, or a pair of “universal” glasses designed to work across brands.
	HDMI Cable To connect your source (such as a 3D Blu-ray Disc player) to your display, you’ll need a high-speed HDMI cable. Cables with this designation feature bandwidth speeds up to 10.2 Gbps (gigabits per second), for carrying the 3D signal without any loss of quality.

XVT3D424SV

I read on Amazon the other day, one of  VIZIO XVT3D424SV Customer sharing his experience in using this LCD.

Review By Timothy B. Lee.

Overall, I love this product. Took me about 2 minutes to set up the unit on its stand. The technical setup took a little longer, but that gets into personal preferences with the widget selection and so forth. Using an HDMI cable to hook up audio and video to your cable box is strongly recommended vs. the colored cables. The sound is OK, such that I additionally purchased a Vizio soundbar and that makes quite an improvement.

I like the remote with slide out keypad. A little awkward until you get used to it. The internet apps are awesome. I specifically signed up for Netflix and am a hardcore user. With a DVR, on demand programs, and internet options, you can dive into tv and not come up for days !

The picture is unbelievably crisp and sharp. I went from a 32″ to this 42″ and it’s fantastic. The fluid motion on the screen is everything it’s hyped to be. Must be the 480 hz refresh rate and the HD, because it’s awesome.

Only brief bugaboo that happened was about a week into having the tv, the internet apps or widgets as they call them (Netflix, Amazon video, Rhapsody, etc.) all disappeared for like two days. After checking all connections on my end, I called Vizio customer service and was told it was their connection to Yahoo servers and was impacting everyone. I wasn’t aware that was how it worked, and had to wait about 48 hours for Yahoo to fix their issue, and then had to reset everything again after the Vizio rep stepped me through a full wipe and started over. Temporarily frustrating, but apparently had never happened before.

Anyone buying a 3D tv should know that there isn’t much out there being broadcast in 3D. ESPN has a channel and there’s a special 3D channel that’s a composite of nature and wildlife features. No one else yet broadcasts in 3D. Your basic option is BluRay discs in 3D. It is a feature that will grow though over time. Also, you probably won’t notice, but there is no entity that broadcasts signals in 1080p. The most you’ll receive is 1080i. You’ll see this signal source in the upper right if you hit the INFO button on the remote. When I say entity, I mean networks and tv stations. As I stated though, you can’t tell the difference. 720 to 1080, yes. From i to p, not really. These broadcast upgrades will come though too, from what I’ve skimmed from message boards, sometime in 2012. With 3D, you do need the glasses. Movie theater glasses do NOT work. I tried. The glasses for the tv have the special shuttering technology that receives the appropriate visual signals from the tv. They are pricey, but that’s the way it is. I do suggest sticking with the Vizio glasses for product continuity. Found a pair on Amazon for $96. Check Ebay though for same product. I found same there for $60 a pair.

For the price and features, I am very pleased and do recommend this unit. Get a soundbar though and those Vizio 3D glasses. Enjoy !!!

 

That’s about all I can think of right now. I’d highly recommend this Vizio  XVT3D424SV. Lots of advanced features for a reasonable price.
