Title: Looking for a 25" TV...
Post by: Thread Killer on July 05, 2004, 01:02:02 pm
I had originally planned to buy this TV (link) (http://catalog2.panasonic.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ModelDetail?displayTab=F&storeId=11251&catalogId=11005&itemId=64602&catGroupId=11074&modelNo=CT-25L8&surfModel=CT-25L8&ignoreRedirect=1) because of its component inputs and ability to be used with the ATI HDTV adapter. After looking into component video, however, I am concerned that (1) it will sharpen the display too much, essentially giving it the unrealistic picture of a computer monitor and (2) the overscan problems will be difficult to work around. Thus, I would prefer a TV that has both component and s-video inputs, just so I have something to fall back on in the event that the former produces undesired results.

Does anyone know of a 25" TV set with both input types, as well as an auto power-on feature that returns to the most recently-viewed channel? Any help would be greatly appreciated, TIA.
