Hello, I have returned to Digiex in need of help. I now have a Samsung 55" LED TV and have been having some slight issues with gaming. I've recently noticed that when I am playing games, when I'm quickly moving/looking around and I see dark object on screen, it seems to leave a trail. I'm quite sure this is ghosting but since you guys are geniuses, I would like your personal insight. What should I change to make the best picture? I'm running it through HDMI but the cord is freakishly long... (21 foot) and would getting a shorter one help? Maybe I should change it to 60hz for optimum gameplay? I need assistance and demand it now in the name of sharks and Canadia!
a shorter HDMI cable could, because over long distance like that there is signal degeneration I believe it gets worse after 8 feet, and most the time a faster refresh rate like 75 or 120 if your tv can do it might help because its loading the images on the screen a little faster (50/50 change that turning up the rate might help) are you going from a PC or Game Console? and demands never go far
Does your TV have a gaming mode? Most HDTV's have this problem when it comes to game consoles but if it has a game mode that usually fixes the problem.
I found it! The game mode was hidden in the GENERAL settings... Pfft, what was Samsung thinking!? It should be an option on its own. My 6 foot HDMI cable is coming in within the week, so I eagerly await better signal Thanks Scyth and Rod!
is it 50hz because if it is switch it to 60hz because my brothers does that or doesnt it support 60hz ??
Back to this, I think I've fixed it... I've turned on Game Mode and adjusted the Hz, seems to be working okay.
