    I put all the settings back to default and tried some more dvd's and all I can liken it to is they all look like there trying to give a 3D effect even though it's in 2D and your not wearing glasses but it just looks false if you know what I mean.

    Hi,

     

    should be no where near as bad as your making it, try some of the settings posted on this thread and dont use the vivid setting, im expecting delivery of my replacement any day now, had i already got it i would talk you through it, i have a 40" loaner at the moment and have played boxset after boxset of DVD's yes they are a tad grainy but very watchable.

    one other thing you could do is to soarce a disc in your collection that has the THX logo on it and set your tv up using the THX optimiser in the menu of said disc and see how that goes.

    Sony KDL55HX923

     

    Hi I just received my set on the 4th November 2011 and I have noticed faint crease lines down the left and right hand side of my TV

     

    What can I do about it as I dont think its good for a flagship model TV especally as ive just had about a week

     

    1st Sony TV I've had that has ever had a problem

    Hi,

     

    i take it you have not read this entire thread yet!, post up here the following which can be found on the sticker on the back (or the side of the box) the serial number and the build date please, this is just for reference.

     

    there will always be faint lines like the ones you discovered on these models with the gorilla glass im afraid however some are more pronouced than others if you cannot see it with normal viewing it should not be too much of a distraction, naturally it will manifest itself on bold single colours but how much it will bother you is down to you.

    you can always send it back and request another, usually a good rapport with your dealer helps as you may be able to view any replacement there first, but this is no guarantee the next one will be any different.

    Teg200, default settings may still have some picture processing still on (haven't had mine to play with yet).

    I would turn off everything (or try game mode) just so you can see how it shows dvd without any of those silly processes.

    There are some that are helpful like the low quality video enchancer (this may be on and may be causing your dvd to look fake).

    I would give you detailed instructions and settings if i had mine, but i probably won't be getting mine for a further 2 weeks, but when i do i will post the best settings in my opinion.

    07/2011 build date.

    No crease, virtually zero haloing (again it's off axis that you see it.)

    Best blacks i have seen on a display, wonderfull.

     

    1080p24 Blu rays look the best i have ever seen them.

     

    Clear plus isn't something i like, it may well improve details on fine lines, but it does definately impact overall brightness/light on the picture.

    Clear is better, doesn't have the same impact to light output and improves motion slightly, but TBH this display handles motion better than anything else i have witnessed, so it's not necessary IMO.

    Besides, Clear plus does add (what looks like black frame insertion to me) as when it's on, everything gets little uniform stripes (seen easier the closer you get) on colours and is quite distracting (for those with an eye for it)

     

    With Game mode on (led modes off), i have a fair bit of clouding only on the right hand top and bottom of the display, the left side is fine, anyone else seen this?

    It's not that distracting in Game mode as i'm gaming and you only see it on black screen.

     

    With LED mode on, movies are so black it feels unreal and makes it so much more enjoyable.


    I am still fiddling, so expect more to come.

    First time on a forum so not sure whats what

     

    I have just bought a KDL46HX923 and all seams fine apart from when I'm watching sport (golf or football) is it normal from long shot images that the golf course/football pitch looks cloudy and that vertical bands of differing brightness is visible?

     

    any close ups and the tv seams fine

     

    Is this the tv or does it sound faulty

    Hi,

     

    its more than likely to be too much picture processing, turn motionflow and other picture processing off and see if that helps, you dont really need any of them on as the tv does a nice job without.

    Thanks for your prompt reply

     

    done as you suggested and it still looks cloudy with banding

     

    do you watch sport on yours, and if so do you get a similar picture to what I'm describing?

    Hi again,

     

    i am still awaiting a replacement so i cannot answer this without checking im afraid and since others are enjoying theirs i have not heard from them since!!,

    perhaps you could post your current settings up for further assistance.

    regards.

    A few of us have recently posted pictures over on the AVF thread here: http://www.avforums.com/forums/lcd-led-lcd-tvs/1539745-sony-bravia-hx923-tv-thread-part-4-a-14.html#post15874805

     

    I posted one quite recently that shows my screen uniformity, which seems pretty good IMHO...

     

    It is here: http://www.avforums.com/forums/15871037-post382.html

     

    Cheers
