Anyone know if there is any left in Dundrum or Nutgrove or is this offer over?

Was a few in Dundrum last weekend...

They are now 369.99 in Xtravision.....

Dubh Geannain · 18-09-2008 9:42am

Picked one up in Clarehall last night. There were about 4 left. I'm quite happy with it. Haven't fired up the 360 on it yet though

ibook · 18-09-2008 9:35pm

Passed through Tesco Jervis this evening, there were none left.

Don't know if this post is of any use to anyone but there were a couple of these telly's at this price in Tesco in Portlaoise as of 7 o' clock this evening. I was tempted but there's not much point buying one I reckon if, like me, you're on Chorus analogue as it would probably look totally sh!te on it! :rolleyes:

Still, though, for anyone in the area who's got Sky or Chorus Digital or wants one for playing their 360/PS3 on, or for anyone who might be passing through Portlaoise, I just thought I'd mention it.

I'm using this TV on Chorus(UPC) analogue and the picture is fine.

Chorus digital is just as sh!tty as analogue. Chorus are the worst company ever!
Have you seen UPC's logo? It's made with http://cooltext.com/ I wonder if they owe royalties on that?

Sorry for that off topic rant...

Tesco Galway got at least 9 on the shelves, maybe 16.

My brother got this tv yesterday. It's pretty good but im no expert. PS3 looks great on it. He got it in Xtravision.

super_furry · 19-09-2008 5:42pm

I've had that TV for a month now and it's great. Use if just for Xbox/PS3 and DVDs and it's a very impressive piece of kit for the money.

Got one in Tullamore yesterday, good few in stock, Wexford did too when I was there Wednesday. Anyone know the Remote Code for Sky Remote though, none n the interweb seem to work...:(

BigCon · 20-09-2008 10:27am

Sky have a help page under system setup or something that has almost all TVs listed. Try this.

themacdaddy · 20-09-2008 10:45am

there is the link to it on their website.

efb · 20-09-2008 11:25am

Did try it, first, didn't work

HD is great on the xbox and on upscaled dvd's

This HD ready yes?

Qwerty? · 22-09-2008 7:08am

At least 6 or 7 of these left in Tesco, Castlebar yesterday evening.

Dubh Geannain · 22-09-2008 11:58am

I'm using it with my 360 set to 1080i and it looks great. The 1080p setting doesn't work too well.

Dvds look fine too. These are non-upscaled ones I've been trying out.

BArra · 22-09-2008 12:11pm

dvd's dont come upscaled, your dvd player if it is capable will upscale a standard dvd.

if you want HD videos, you will need a hd dvd player, or a bluray player

hd dvd -> xbox 360 hd dvd drive / toshiba make them
bluray -> sony ps3 / sony standalone bluray players

hd dvd and bluray are two different formats and highly superior to standard dvds

Got one of these in Galway yesterday connected a wii cant seem to get a good picture anyone have a wiii on this ?

xbox36016 · 28-09-2008 11:01am

thay are no good last year got a samsung s4 32inch for 750 and its the bast evar xbox in 1080p

Alkers · 28-09-2008 5:17pm

Got one in Xtra Vision last Friday and have to say it's excellent for the price. I don't think you'd really notice 1080P on a tv this size, certainly not worth almost twice the price.

wii isnt HD so its not going to look great on anything really.

BrendanD · 05-10-2008 8:53pm

Sorted out the problem , you have to go in to tv settings and select Ireland as the country works fine now

Dman001 · 05-10-2008 8:58pm

If you get the Wii compnent cables, it will improve the games that are compatible with component cables.

What are you on about? They are no good because you got a Samsung? They are a great TV for the price. I work in Xtravision and sold about 30/40 of these myself and 6 to my family and friends and no one has a bad word to say about them. I bought the 32" and 22" models and I have had no problem with them, I use them with X-Box 360 and Sky Digital.

Is it true the xtravision is an older model than tescos and some functions do not work?

craze7 · 06-10-2008 5:32pm

I think the tesco ones are the older model, they only have 8w speakers. Xtravision have 10w speakers!!!

Hey Jenno... just wondering if you've ever seen the 32" Mirai used as a pc monitor. I'm tempted to replace my ancient crt tv and crt monitor with one all round and really big TV solution to be used with xbox360, ps3 and as my pc monitor. It would really help me with space issues and I know the Mirai has a pc input but i'm wondering if its good enough to use for everyday PC use.
