I cant find info immediately about that, but I seriously doubt thats LAG time. Thats RESPONSE time yes?

:rotfl:

It's the same thing...

Its really not

RESPONSE time is (generally) the time taken for a pixel to change from black to white and back to black again (Typically 10ms or less)
(If it was the case above with 100ms, the screen would be completely unwatchable)
LAG time is the time taken between the tv receiving the signal and actually displaying it onscreen after all the processing it goes through

What are you laughing at again?

Clearly you're just making it up as you go now. How about a few comments from those that know what they're talking about?

LCD TV Response Time: Why it's Important

One of the specifications you'll see (or will not see) when researching a new LCD TV flat screen purchase is response time. This important spec represents the amount of time it takes for one pixel to go from active (black) to inactive (white) and back to black again. Think of it in relation to shutter speed on a camera. It's the speed at which an LCD panels crystals twist" to block and allow light to pass. It is measured in milliseconds (ms) with a lower number meaning faster change between active and inactive pixels and resulting in less image artifacts. The lower the response time the better.
"A high response time can completely ruin an otherwise good looking picture"

Many current and older LCD TVs with longer response times display a smear or blur around fast moving objects making them unacceptable for action scenes, sports, video game and just about any fast moving video. For example, when watching a baseball game on an older LCD TV the ball could appear to have a comet like tail when moving quickly across the screen. This distracting lag time in response in LCD televisions and displays has been called among other names: motion lag, trailer effect, fast motion blur, smearing. It is something more often found in budget priced and smalled LCDs but motion blur is a problem inherent in LCD technologies. The reason this smearing effect is important to you as a consumer is that a high response time (slow conversion) can completely ruin an otherwise good looking picture, no matter what the contrast and luminance of the television.

The type of "LAG" you're on about comes from using a !!!!!! quality HDMI lead and is nothing to do with the telly itself.

Stick to your Hijack This logs yeah...

Snooze ~ you clearly dont have a clue what YOUR talking about. You think the creators of HDTEST dont know how to measure LAG or what it is? Whats the 100ms LAg time all about then?
And HDMI lead?? HDMI leads work up until the point theyre about to fail and has absolutely NOTHING WHATSOEVER to do with lag! :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
The LAG above youve quoted is wrong. Thats a high pixel response which results in smearing

But believe what you wish! We both know which of us is wrong

Ive never known somone so stupid!

Ill talk maths

Screen refresh is generally 24Hz, 50Hz or 60Hz
Now work out what would happen if RESPONSE time was 100ms

You just keep on digging your hole.............

Hi guys,

Just wondering if anyone had any recommendations for a 37 to 40 inch TV. Not Plasma and can't afford those LED things.

Was looking at THIS and but dont know whats the best. Budget around 500.

Cheers

You can't go wrong with a Pioneer or Panasonic TV tbh with you.

Oh dear!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I never thought buying a TV would be so complicated. I got in to this sort of debate several months ago, got so confused, I ended up keeping my CRT. At least I knew it worked.

Pioneer dont even make tvs anymore

Plus, theyre not the sort of prices I think the ops willing to pay
