[maathew361]

Is This Monitor HD?

[BRPhillis]

I'm looking to buy a good quality HD TV for my xbox360 this fall, probably look for one on black friday... And I was wondering what you would suggest. As of now I only want to pay about 150 for a TV. Any ideas?

[visual1ze]

@BRPhillis just wait untill thanksgiving to see the ads, 150 is kinda low though, lucky if u find a 22 inch for that price with hdmi

[BRPhillis]

@visual1ze I don't want HDMI, that's not what my xbox has. It just has the HD AV cables...

[mindnightclub3]

@BRPhillis sorry but u may wan to higher your price rang by at least 60 bucks 150 wont even by u a 15ich wa kind of tv u looking 4

[mindnightclub3]

@BRPhillis sorry but u may want to higher your price rang by at least 60 bucks 150 wont even by u a 15inch wa kind of tv u looking 4

[nickfleischer]

Is there any input lag??? Whats the response time on this monitor? Please write back.

[visual1ze]

@nickfleischer 5 ms, a quick google search and u could have found out what it was. -_-

[JasonTheInsane]

You know you can hook it up with your PC too right?

Get a DVI-HDMI for your, and a HDMI-HDMI, so whichever one for which and it'll work for both :D

just click on source and it'll switch.

[visual1ze]

@JasonTheInsane yea thats how its set up in hte video!

[snapascrew]

It's got built in speakers you say? You enjoy it for gaming? I'm thinking of purchasing.

[krzysiekeros]

does this monitor have loudspeakers built in? 

[Trevman1011]

@krzysiekeros I don't know about this one but the SyncMaster 2493 does. =)

[achyutde141]

where is the audio coming from? monitor or ur speakers?

[visual1ze]

@achyutde141 monitor, through the hdmi cable

[achyutde141]

@visual1ze So, i think thats a monitor like a TV which can also output audio from the HDMI cables.....DO u know any other monitor like this manufactured by Dell or BENQ?

[TheJumboGeek]

@visual1ze

Thank you. Now I know that the HDMI cable will carry sound through to the monitor from a console if it has built in speakers. :D

[arcticlgfe]

this is definitely such a awesome video game i cant imagine it. its a whole lot superior to cod4. ive only just reached the second prestige ! im so thrilled. acquired the game pretty much a couple weeks ago as a result of mw2forfreeZinfo (replace Z with . ) nevertheless i'm already beating everyone!

[predetor69]

Are the differences noticeable or not even enough to care?

[JasonTheInsane]

Hey man, how is this on a PS3/Gaming Console, is it better than a HD TV?

Don't wanna put my PS3 in the living room.

[DoopaSuper]

I currently have the Asus VH242H monitor and it is fantastic. I have a PC, PS3 and 360 all plugged into it but there is a slight issue with 1080p on the 360. All the games say they run 1080p but they are actually upscaled by the 360. In the short term, the 360 on 1080p monitors show a distorted image unless they are native 1080p games which look absolutely brilliant. Halo 3 was designed at 640p and the quality of this game on a monitor is appalling.

[karazyking]

how do i know if a monitor im gonna buy only need the hdmi cord for it to play xbox 360 ?

[BlackRacingRox]

@karazyking if they the monitor allows HDMI than its okay, that's just the only thing you need. And audio in the monitor of course

[TheLukeyboi]

is your monitor the new one connected to a computer

[HaloCaveMan]

my dad has the same one.

[bigreds2k]

hey man, did you get this monitor just for gaming, i plan on picking up a monitor just for my 360, is this one good? (since youve had it for a while lol)

[EpicKenVids]

great job man love ur video....

[visual1ze]

@EpicKenVids thankyou <3

[nongio84]

hi nice video. how can you switch between pc and xbox? please help me...so i can buy finally this samsung..;)

[OryKid]

@nongio84 Easily. Just switch between inputs. There is a button on the bezel for it. Just on press and you are on to the next input.

[SuperTerryaki]

Nice video! What do you think of the monitor now since you had it for quite a while now?

[1m4yh3m1]

thank you

[visual1ze]

@1m4yh3m1 np :)

[5605miguel]

i have a 27" Diagonal Full HD Widescreen LCD Monitor and i love but i want to play on my desktop!!!!

[carternut1]

what cable do i need to buy if i dont want audio i have headphones i want my xbox on the 19" lcd im ordering but i still want hd

[azy42]

[citradi]

[citradi]

that backlight on top and bottom of the monitor is it normal? cause i have samsung P2050 and showing that too... please reply..

[tigerwhite33]

How are you running your audio 4 it

[visual1ze]

@tigerwhite33 hdmi has audio and video built in, all in 1 hdmi cord!

[SlipperyMooseCakes]

@visual1ze

I actually just bought the same monitor for my Xbox 360 as well. You're saying that you only need the HDMI cord to plug it in right? The audio and sound will work?

[visual1ze]

@SlipperyMooseCakes yes thats what im saying -_-

[MrArmeniankiller]

No offense, but looking to your former monitor... it's kind of amazing that you know wich part is what on your new monitor :).

[RTechstudio]

@gtx480v LG is better for IPS panels which overall kicks any type of panel including samsung...but samsung does make some pritty sick tn panels that are amazing for gaming

[regionfree1]

can this monitor pivot?

[jhurstpfc8]

do you have to have your actual computer hardrive connected to play xbox on it

[jaapmaster]

5ms is just fine for gaming.. you wont notice the difference between 2 and 5ms, but ofcourse 2 is better

[inter15fc]

5 ms response time no good for gaming. u might notice the ghosting but 2ms is better

[ryan97303]

samsung sucks . go lg

[oath50]

@ryan97303 LCD's are LCD's. Shut up.

[binhleau]

hey man i have couple question,how u conect your xbox 360 to that samsung monitor so neat?

[akaivan]

hdmi cable - sound and video is in one cable

[binhleau]

i have the exact same one..and it broke idk why ):

[visual1ze]

return it? :)

[pindi11]

Is it possible to use half screen for computer and half for tv like on some TVs

[visual1ze]

no idea

[MajorNuttela14]

@pindi11 hey. if i get this. does it come with an hdmi cable, so i can plug it in my 360???

[morx555rep]

i can buy it now...

should i buy it ? :D

[Laaurenxo]

reply to me for 5 stars

[akaivan]

@Laaurenxo gimme now

[n0inim]

I have this monitor but my Xbox (connected by the HDMI cable) shows a blury image... =/

Isn't it supposed to be Full HD? What could be the problem?

[dfthaman]

@n0inim

the cable

[speedyneon]

@n0inim check the monitor settings and make sure it isnt in av mode

[th3forty2nd]

whats av mode

[visual1ze]

@n0inim yea i would try a different cord first!

[zahidmasih7]

do u have a dvi port at the back of your monitor ?

[visual1ze]

@zahidmasih7 yes

[BigLebowski2000]

Is it recommendable for ps3 also???

[visual1ze]

@BigLebowski2000 works for it as long as u have hdmi! :)

[crazywrabbit]

I was gonna get this monitor but gonna spend more and get Dell IPS instead - only because I do a lot of webdesign and photo work, if I just gamed then id get this as its very cheap for what you get.

[visual1ze]

@crazywrabbit yea thats all i do

[stakovism]

hi , i'm getting a very similar tv and gonna connect with hdmi to xbox 360. But i also want to get a turtle beach x1 gaming headset. Do you know if it is possible for all of them to work together on a monitor basically the same as yours???

[sivaskar2008]

any colour diferent between crt and lcd??

[EeezyLive]

YES... big difference... go to bestbuy or some electronic store to check it out...

[visual1ze]

ah i didnt have that problem but i would try a different hdmi cord, and settings within the xbox? i dont know try googling it

[styl3zkp]

say - would this monitor work for a ps2/ps3 as well?

[visual1ze]

im sure its possible, as long as the ps3 has an hdmi cord lol. ps2 idk

[jordler]

for ps3 yes but for ps2 no .

[styl3zkp]

any recommendations for ps2?

[jordler]

yeah buy a tv . monitors dont use component or comosite

[Snipeman901]

some do and they have tv tuners in them too

[MarFur93]

I'm gonna do the same as you.. use DVI for computer and HDMI for Xbox 360.

[THEREAPERSBAND]

hey whas up man bought this monitor 2 months ago what are your settings do you use the magic color setting?

[miky1200]

How did you connect the screen to your Xbox?

Either with HDMI or VGA, can you please explain how you got the video and sound?

I,m using the vga hd cable now with red and white sound jacket through a converter for the 3-plug 5.1 sound output. (wich you normally plug into your soundcard on the computer)

[visual1ze]

I used a HDMI cable, Video and sound is covered in just 1 hdmi cable ;)

[miky1200]

Yea i see the screen has built-in speakers.

i,m gonna use my Logitech x530 5.1 set though,

hope i can find a way to connect it correctly with hdmi and surround sound 5.1 together.

[JCDT8]

same here. cost me about 70 bucks ;(

[VVindows7]

VGA has no sound so it's obvious you can't get any sound

[McKenzie3000]

@VVindows7 you hook it up to a stereo or speakers dumbshit

[VVindows7]

congratulations dipshit, my comment was aimed at someone else

[McKenzie3000]

boy youd better run before id pistol whipd u

[VVindows7]

go ahead

[romulimduarte]

Parabéns!

[Kitarist88]

So how do you like it? How are the colors and is the pictures extra crisp and clear?

Thanks!!!

[visual1ze]

yes very clear, just make sure u have it at the recommended resolution.

[collectingking]

hey man, I had a question for ya... We are using the AT&T Uverse Digital Cable here, it is 2Wire, I was wondering if you are using the wireless adapter for your 360? It is very difficult getting the xbox 360 to see the 2Wire connection thru the computer... I wonder if you have any input.. love the monitor!!

[visual1ze]

not really sure of what ur asking but im not using the wireless adapter, i have it connected via ethernet cord

[hahahaz07]

are u using CRT before that? O.o?

[visual1ze]

yes lol. only kind of monitor that can keep up with my pro gaming ;) dont make fun

[visual1ze]

well the viewing angle sucks on this lcd, its meant to be looked at straight forward, not from any angles

[Advocatus]

Is the only way to get Full HD is that through HDMI cable?

[visual1ze]

for Full HD, i think so

[dfthaman]

No, you can get a 1080i(Full HD) through a compatible pc monitor with the Xbox 360 HD Vga cable.

[JamrockKidd]

Nah, 1080i is not full HD mate 1080p is.

[youkannadea]

did your 360 gets RROD!!

[visual1ze]

nope, i have had it for a year already. works perfect. RROD is for people who dont take care of there shiz

[Advocatus]

Thanks for the video, where are the speakers on the Monitor? Can you see them from the front or are they on the back of the monitor.

[visual1ze]

their on the back :)

[coldharbur00]

hey man cool video thanks. do you like this lcd? Do you have any ghosting? I am hoping to get it for pc gaming thanks man 5 stars!

[akaivan]

[visual1ze]

@drunkinthepool no, its not hd! :(

[godsbbf]

jap Full HD 1080p

[zenzu88]

Hey! Can you please reply to my question Asap? I recently purchased an Xbox 360, and i have the EXACT same monitor as you, I was wondering what did u use to connect everything together, with sound? Im not such an expert, but does HDMI include sound?

[visual1ze]

@zenzu88 i thought the same thing man! yes hdmi does include sound too, sounds good too! all u need is just 1 hdmi cord and ur set

[zenzu88]

Alright thanks alot!

[buopesado]

connect it via hdmi

[juresali]

cool video ;)

And pls change the monitor in background, its horrible :D

[Bilzo599]

i bort this same tv and 2 days later i was watching a movie and the screen got a masive crack all the way through the screen and then shatterd all over the floor

[visual1ze]

lol im assuming you must have dropped it?

[Bilzo599]

the royal male bloke probz dropped it when it was being shipped from australia and plus i bort it on ebay so wot do i expect

[123bobbx]

i need help hooking up my new monter can u leav me a vido responce showing me how

[visual1ze]

its called a manual ;)

[nogie8]

do u know what's the difference between the HS and the HM?

[visual1ze]

nope sorry

[nogie8]

k, thnx 4 the reply

[iismatthew123]

Hdmi is the only difference.

[MrMegaSwap]

You can turn the screen around vertically with the HM, the HS you can only move it up and down (Higher and lower) Sorry for the late reply lol.

[visual1ze]

@MrMegaSwap i never found out how to turn it vertically lol, i cant find the pin to pull out to do that!

[MrMegaSwap]

@visual1ze Yeah well, This is the HM. The HS Models the one that turns vertically.

[HuyFumio]

It depends on what stand you have.

There are 3 different stands shown in the manual.

One of them has the Pivot function. I happen to have it and it's a really nice thing, you can rotate it 350°, you can adjust the height, you can adjust the angle, and the pivot turning makes connecting the cables easier too. :D

[isk8trees]

Ah jeez what type of monitor or tv would be good for gaming and works with comcast for $250 under

[isk8trees]

Comcast my bad

[isk8trees]

Haha sorry I couldn't hear it the first time and do you know if it would work with a comcat box?

[akaivan]

not sure, if the comcast box uses the hdmi cable then probably, but if it still uses regular cable, then no.

[visual1ze]

what akaivan said ;)

[isk8trees]

No i don't have it I was wondering if the one you have is showing any lag and is it pretty easy to set up an xbox to it

[akaivan]

i say no lag in the video lol, and all u need is ur hdmi cable

[iNeXyyy]

is this hooked up to a pc monitor using just a HDMI cable
