[prashanthaku]

where can I get this version of Canon music? thanks! :p

[namqua123]

for a pleasant change some lovely music! thanks a pleasure to watch...

[bushwaa1]

anyone know how to fix the lag on the tv? my xbox lags a bit when i play call of duty and im wondering how to fix it. I have the 720p version and for some reason it lags a bit while im playing. there is no dcm option or motion option in the video settings, should i buy an hdmi cable? will that remedy the lag?

[V3RM1LI0N]

I have 2 o these :)

[tomcat8492]

I got the same tv and it's at 480p right now and I don't know how to get it on 1080p, can anyone help?

[blueshadowdude]

@tomcat8492 the rez of your image depends on the signal going into the tv. For example, if you are using a HDMI digital cable converter, then you will automatically receive a HD signal on a HD channel. If the channel is not HD it will be of a lower rez, i.e. 480p. Check your inputs to see if the TV is on a HD input. If it is and you are not getting 1080p through the cable box, then call your cable company and they can talk you through fixing it.

Is this a good TV for Gaming and Movies? But more for the gaming hah any idea?

[SWAairlinePilot]

I am buying this tomorrow for $349.99 at best buy. This seems to be about exactly the same. Is this 60Hz? This is what im getting, i was just wondering if it was the exact same thing as yours.

Nice music also, sounds so nice

[blueshadowdude]

@SWAairlinePilot Yes mine is 60Hz...

[silllywabbit]

@blueshadowdude im getting the exact same one either today tomorrow and only difference i can see is that the one im getting is 120Hz

[silverdoe100]

omg i heard this song i was floating on a cloud, high in the sky

[blueshadowdude]

@silverdoe100 Thanks! Glad you liked my choice.

[matt78753]

@iplaystion I didn't even go buy it I went to frys n got sum TV frm derr is it good?

[matt78753]

Is It worth it cause I'm gonna go buy dis ho on blk friday

[iLuvPlaystation]

@matt78753 i just did

[MrBigrobmjca3]

Wow, a video where the music isn't complete junk. (closes eyes and leans back)

[rDAMartiN]

I have referred to this video several times. Not for the review, but for the music. Can you please tell me this exact version of cannon?

[blueshadowdude]

@rDAMartiN I'm sorry I can't. It's a piece I found years ago. It has no copyright as far as I know. But it is lovely isn't it.

[stormyRPG]

@rDAMartiN If you search it on iTunes look up "100 Guitar Instrumentals" the artist is Guitar Masters and the track is #12.

[emermandocdoc]

hey i just bought the same tv but my tv stand was square?

[Birdonrose]

should i buy this tv for my xbox 360?

[Kablas1a]

For those of you who are about to get this tv you will feel like the fps game is lagging or slower than it should be. You get used to it after like a day or few hours. Gears of war felt very slow on this tv but the next day it felt normal again.

[quedin2u]

@Kablas1a did the game look good too?

[TheGorgorothSpire]

Can you please do a review on the performance of the actual tv? I'm skeptical on how it will turn out

[jacobishere2]

I stayed for the song

[stackerkid14]

cannon rock good choice

[2potheads]

@stackerkid14

It is Canon in D

[blueshadowdude]

@2potheads yup....

[iFamousZombie]

how much did this cost?

[blueshadowdude]

@iFamousZombie I paid $500 Canadian less than a year ago. You should be able to get it for less now.

[VinForTheWin1]

can you turn the speakers off in this tv ? because i want to yous headphones for them

[blueshadowdude]

@VinForTheWin1 Yes, it has a auxiliary headphone jack.

[Legitkill3r1]

@blueshadowdude Would you say that its a good t.v for gaming?

[blueshadowdude]

@Legitkill3r1 What people tell me... I would have to say not really... the processor might not be fast enough. But for watch TV and blueray/dvd then yes...good sound and picture.

[plmtv1514]

i just bought this tonight haha like 2 hours ago, im setting it up tomorrrow:)

[NSODoverBoy]

Nice video... Im geting the Insignia 19" Class / 720p / 60Hz / LED-LCD HDTV and im going to get the XBOX 360 Arcade... i cant wait

[crazyjorge2111]

@NSODoverBoy both those things suck. no offense but u wont see shit on a 19 inch and a 360 arcade u get crap games and no hardrive.

[maltyful]

SAMSUNG GARBAGE

NOT THE BOX

THE TV !

[yoBEENLY]

I think I'm going to get the Insignia® - 32" Class / 720p / 60Hz / LCD HDTV model. Do you think this is good enough for casual gaming on a PS3? Or should I get HDMI cables and upscaler for 1080p?

[blueshadowdude]

I personally don't have a game system, but what I understand is that it's not too bad for gaming through HDMI ports. So yes, get the cable... but you don't really need anything too expensive. One of those $100 monster cables are a waste of money.

[luckyranadey775]

@yoBEENLY i got the 720p tv that your thinkin about getting..and i DO LOVE IT..but im jus gonna return it and spend another 50 bucks to upgrade to a 1080P..and on the 720p...gaming is awesome..i mean modern warfare 2 in high def...AMAZING!!! lol

[bushwaa1]

@luckyranadey775 hey, does yours lag? mine lags slightly do you know how to fix it?

[luckyranadey775]

@bushwaa1 no mine does not lag,but i got the 1080p and 120 hz version..but by reading your last comment..yeah go try a HDMI cable..it might help because you dont have the dcm option..what about on your remote as well..does it show a button that labeled "game"?..and what type of connecters are you using right now?..composite or component?

[bushwaa1]

@luckyranadey775 right now im just using the component cables, im wondering if the hdmi might fix the delay since the xbox is most likely running in 480p on a 720p tv which might cause a bit of lag, so you recommend getting the hdmi cables then? would it fix the annoying delay?

[luckyranadey775]

@bushwaa1 yeah thats definitaly worth a shot..and no need to get some super expensive hdmi cables..just get something simple to see if it helps out the lag..good luck with everything..hope it works out great for you :)

[bushwaa1]

@luckyranadey775 thanks man ill try it out, if not i know that there are some great tv's for gaming anyway :)

[bo4rat4]

im gonna get one how has it been working for you right now i think their selling it for 400 i think hows it working so far

[blueshadowdude]

I love my TV. The image is clear with good colour and and sound. I've not had an issue with it the the 7 months that I've had it. $400 is a good deal.

[natoel]

gaming systems usually come with the hdmi cable

[thscjrox]

xbox 360 does not support 120hz. I have a Sony Bravia 120hz and I can not play 360 on it because it has some lag and I end up sniped right in the head on GOW when I play on that tv. You need to have a tv with 60hz motion. I also did try putting the setting to 60hz on the Sony and no luck but that is the tv.

[quedin2u]

@thscjrox what about ps3?

[fxrdz]

I got this exact tv yesterday and when I play my xbox 360 on it, I get input lag to where it's unplayable. I'm sure you've tried games on it, how did you get it to work? I'm using component btw

[blueshadowdude]

Actually I haven't. I use mine for digital cable and blueray. I've even hooked my laptop to it and it seems fine. This is only a 60 hz TV. Some gaming systems work better on a 120 hz TV.

[LtorryCeltics]

how much did it cost?

[blueshadowdude]

It cost me about $500 (can).

[blueshadowdude]

You are absolutely right. A friend of mine just bought a high end LG brand LCD and he actually prefers mine over his for sound and features.

[sprolix]

omg i cant wait to get one of theese for my room!!! im selling my drum set for this!

[brigexplosion]

i got this exact one from bestbuy and the only issue im having is the response time with my xbox360 my ps3 works fine but the xbox360 is makin it hard to play first person shooters does anyone know a fix for this? i only have composite cables but my hdmi cables come in a week

[blueshadowdude]

I think that the HDMI cables will make a difference. However this TV is only rated at 60 HZ which is fine for TV and blueray. I'm unsure if the lower frequency has an influence on gaming systems. I suspect that it does.

[brigexplosion]

i just checked i have the 120HZ but i found out there is no response lag on the inputs on the left of the tv so everything works fine now

[blueshadowdude]

Excellent, good luck.

[redsorrows]

I have hdmi cable and it still has a delay i don't know how much they were though it was a christmas present <=(

[blueshadowdude]

If your system is 120 HZ and you have a HDMI cable, I'm not sure why there would be a delay. Maybe someone else may have an answer. I would have a look in some of the HD TV forums. It could be that you have a bad TV.

[mattehISme]

its gonna be a nice pc monitor when i get mine

[leon20111]

32" for pc? thats suck!

[amazingdany]

Here's what Consumer Reports said about it:

CR's Take

This 32-inch 1080p LCD from Insignia, Best Buy's house brand, offers excellent overall picture quality, and is very low priced, especially for a 1080p set. Its viewing angle, though, is narrower than most.

[amazingdany]

Highs

Excellent HD and standard-definition picture quality. It was very good at displaying fine details in top-quality HD content, just shy of the best sets. Color accuracy was excellent. Contrast was good, typical for most models we've tested. Brightness level was good, suitable for most rooms. Very good black levels -- deep, just shy of the best sets. Excellent, smooth reproduction of scenes with subtly shaded light-to-dark areas, such as a sky during sunset.

[amazingdany]

(highs-cont.)

Very good film-mode operation (3:2 pulldown) effectively minimized jagged edges -- "jaggies" -- on our 1080i HD movie content; for 480i SD movie content, it was excellent. Our 1080i HD video clip with motion detail (de-interlacing test) looked very good with just a hint of visible jaggies. Sound was good, fine for typical TV programming. Remote has dedicated buttons for selecting each video source (Video1, Video2, etc.). Has in-home warranty service, unusual for models this size.

[amazingdany]

Lows

Black levels had a slight reddish tint. Our 480i SD video clip with motion detail (de-interlacing test) was flawed by clearly visible jaggies. Viewing angle was somewhat limited -- the picture lost some color, contrast, or brightness as we moved off from dead center. Lacks USB port, separate RGB level adjustments, and multimedia slide-show.

Final grade: 69%

Personal tip: GET THE WARRANTY, no matter the brand! My Sony lcd only lasted 14 months. Now it's gathering dust and useless!

[blueshadowdude]

Thanks for the information. So far I'm happy with my TV, but I will keep all this in mind.

[xxCHRiSxPF98xx]

i want this for christmas and i found it on sale for $400 what a steal for a 1080p tv

[freshtex1]

hey dude, 1st please allow me to congratulate you on a great video, damn, the mellow music almost made me cry, lol, anyways i've got an LG 47 in my living room, but i need a 32 for my computer desk, let me ask you, have you tried the pc input as yet?, i'm thinking of getting this very same insignia for xmas..holla.

[blueshadowdude]

Thanks for the comment. I appreciate it. As for your questions, yeah I've connected my gateway (see my Windows 7 vid) to it and it looked perfect. I really can't say that there is anything that don't like about the Insignia. Have a good one...

[mboxmarc]

it's hard to find a 1080p under $500 and i was wondering if this unit is good for gaming?

[blueshadowdude]

I get this question a lot. Unfortunately I can't say. I don't have a gaming system on my TV.

[GAMEMETAL666]

TV GOOD

[boemoC]

I'm thinking about getting this TV for christmass but i read that some people notice blurring when playing games? I would not hook it up to cable i would only use it in my room for my xbox and movies. Do you notice any blur?

[blueshadowdude]

Unfortunately I don't have a gaming system on my TV; just a video system, so I really can't say. However, my digital cable and blueray looks perfect if that's any help.

[boemoC]

OK thanks and great video!

[jigkicker6]

I have the 42" model and it is amazing!!

[XtremeDudez]

love the music also nice unboxing

[crazedlink00]

I have the same tv

[alleypuppy]

I might get this TV for my birthday (the 720p model though). How would you rate this TV?

[blueshadowdude]

Considering the low cost, it's a fine TV. It's easy to hook up, and has all the bells and whistles that more expensive TVs have. The digital processor could be a bit faster. I'd give it a 7 or 8 out of 10.

[XxMike91316xX]

well i have 2 insignia tv's both 720p i have a 37'' and a 32'' and both work very well the color is very good .. my 37'' i had for a lil over a year and the it still works very well.... very good quality tv's... my 32'' that i just bought today has a built in dvd player.if you are going to buy a tv i suggest go to best buy because you can get the 4 year warranty for like 70 bucks!!

[jon204]

yes but do you understand how the warenth works if the tv breaks you cant tak it back to theme you have to call the makers of the tv soread your warrenty i dont by my hdtvs from best buy

[Sordo28]

Hey Sir, How long do you have this Tv for ? Any black color turn in to green color ?

[blueshadowdude]

I've had it for about 2 months. So far there has been no colour change what-so-ever.

[ledsabbath165]

Wow, I thought this video would be a raw uncut video done by some child, to my surprise the video is pretty sweet. Anyways, How is the TV? Does it work well with gaming systems?

[blueshadowdude]

To be completely honest, I really dont know. I dont have a gaming system. But I do have and HD cable receiver and an up-scaling DVD player attached and they all look fantastic on it. Clear, bright, vivid colours and excellent contrast, Id bet you wouldnt be disappointed if you had a system attached.

[kickballa]

Cool! .... I was about to buy one but i wasted the money on a Xbox 360.

[greasedupgamer]

i have the same tv and this song makes me cry tears of joy wait..........is this?....cannon rock?

[blueshadowdude]

not sure what cannon rock is... but the piece is Canon in D major by Johann Pachelbel play on an acoustic. How do you like your TV btw?

[greasedupgamer]

thats what i meant and i think mines 720p but i put it 2 1080 its a great tv

[alexakadim3s]

nice video 5 stars!

btw would you happen to know if it's good for gaming like ps3 and stuff?

[blueshadowdude]

Personally, I wouldnt know, but what I heard its reasonably good.

[itzfIav]

Im thinking of getting one myself, but my room is too small.. ;[

And I don't feel safe with it on my wall, I'm scared it might fall off.

Great unboxing by the way.

5/5*

[blueshadowdude]

The room where I have my TV in is only about 12"x12". I find that this 32" LCD is the perfect size for it. To tell you the truth, I wouldn't want it on the wall ether. Better to have it on a stand because of all the wires.

[rDAMartiN]

The best unboxing video i have seen to date.

the music made it.

Cannon?

[blueshadowdude]

Good ear... right on the nose. Thanks, I appreciate it.

[kickballa]

I was just wondering, is it good? .. The quality? .. because usually 1080p 32" cost around 1,000 so I was thinking this one might not be so good! So is it good?

Please reply as soon as possible ... 5 STARS!

[blueshadowdude]

Currently, I have it hooked up to normal analogue cable TV and I'm actually surprised how good the picture looks even with that. Tomorrow, the cable guy is installing my HD box. If the quality on analogue is this good, HD must be spectacular. It's easy to hook up and is cheap. I paid $500 (Canadian) which was regular price. My advice is to go for it. For that price, you can't go wrong.

[kickballa]

Thank you! I have Dish Network HD, but a pretty small LCD, so I might wanna upgrade! And I checked at Best Buy and yes, it is 500$ .

Thank you very much!

[blueshadowdude]

I recently picked up a DVD player that upscales my DVDs to 1080p quality. They look great on this TV. I'm very pleased with it. Was going to buy a blueray that would do the same thing, but the dvd player was only 1/3 the price and has a USB port that I can use to play downloaded movies via a USB stick.
