LG 47LH50 47-Inch 1080p 120 Hz Broadband LCD HDTV, Gloss Black Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this tv because of the netcast/netflix internet option. The netflix takes a second to come setup and works great. The audio on this tv is great for a LCD. The color are pretty good but the blacks are light especially in dark scenes (this is my only compliant). Also there is some concerns that cnet.com pointed out in regard to how this tv processes 1080p. If you are looking for a TV with out of this world picture that than this is not it (I would suggest a newer LED model or older Sony/Samsung). This TV is for those who really want the yahoo widgets and netflix/youtube. Another drawback is that it has no wireless connectivity.
I would still recommend getting it if you can live with lighter blacks and really love netflix.com.
For 1200 bucks for a 47 inch LCD , 120 HZ and 1080p is a pretty good deal.

(More customer reviews)I selected this specific television because of the integrated Netflix player. Set up took literally minutes and everything worked great until I tried to activate the built in Netflix player. I was not able to get an activation code from netflix because, although the tv could hit my home network and the internet, the player was unable to log into the Netflix activation server. I first called Netflix and was transfered to LG customer support, who were more interested in getting my phone number than working through the issue. We fumbled through a couple of things becore they informed me that they would need to send out a service tech and I would have to be available for 4 hours on a Tuesday for them to show up. Not finding this acceptable, I reached out to Netflix again. This time I got someone on the level 2 helpdesk who worked with me for about an hour on network things. Basically we determined that there was nothing wrong with my network, but that the problem resided in the television. He was willing to sit on the phone another hour with me while we brought up the LG tech on what had been done. After he walked through several remedial steps that didn't really have anything to do with the situation, the LG tech gave up and tried to schedule another on site visit. I insisted on talking to a supervisor who informed me that there was no Level 2 help desk for LG. After I pressed hard enough, she put me on hold and called someone she knew in Advanced techncal support (aparently an internal departmement). I got a promise for some to call me back. Everyone I had talked to was extremely friendly and told me over and over they wanted to help, but their depth of knowledge on this product was very weak.
After spending an hour with the advanced technical guys, they finally conceeded that they had never actaully set up a Netflix connection, but had seen one working. They also told me that there are known issues with Belkin routers (of course, that is the router I use.) I now have no less than 6 hours invested in getting Netflix to work on this tv and it still doesn't. I will now have to wait for a field tech to come out, do exactly the same things I've done over the last 6 hours and then inform me that I'll need a new board or something, but it'll have to be ordered. I should note that the other web applications integrated into the television work great, it's a shame I didn't buy the TV for them.
I already have a Roku Netflix player (it's even wireless) and I get great results on my Toshiba plasma TV. I should have just bought the tv I really wanted and went with a second Roku device for the new television.
UPDATE - After working with an authorized repair company, the main mother board was replaced and all issues with NETFLIX connectivity were resolved. I am still using the Belkin router and it works like a charm. There were some issues also with the speakers (they crackled at certain frequencies) but once they were replaced, everything seems to be working well.

LG 55LH85 55-Inch 1080p 120 Hz Wireless HDMI LCD HDTV, Black Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This HDTV is all we could have hoped for. It arrived this afternoon and we had it setup with all input devices connected to the wireless media hub in about 15 minutes. So far everything has worked beautifully. If there is any degradation of the picture due to the wireless connection I'm not able to discern it. The picture is stunning, DVD upscaling from our LG BD390 blu-ray player is incredible, HD channels all come in fabulous. Sound is synchronized to perfection.
The location of the wireless media hub is about 10 feet from the TV. It's within a recessed cabinet that houses our reciever, blu-ray player, DVD recorder, and cable HD DVR set top box. All devices are connected and outputting picture and sound without a hitch. So far we've sampled from several DVDs and a blu-ray disc. No problems whatsoever.
If you were looking at this item and wondering whether the wireless HDMI would function well, you need not worry. We have been waiting for this capability for some time and were rather apprehensive getting such an early model. If further TVs are produced with this capability I expect that they will catch on very fast. Having the freedom to put the TV well away from all your other input devices is a dream come true.

(More customer reviews)Well I saw this tv on sale and I just couldn't let it slide. I had been looking for a second tv mainly for ps3 and computer use. I currently own a 23" samsung px2370 which is amazing however its just not big enough for me so I decided to try out this bad boy. First off I went to go check it out at my local box store and it looked great 3mil:1 contrast, 2.4 ms response, led backlit, usb 2.0, and its super slim with a nice cabinet. The main thing I noticed when I was at the store was how nice and uniformed the color looked and the angles of the tv were great. I bought the tv off of amazon straight through them with free 3-5 day shipping I believe it was and I actually received it in two days. I plugged in the tv and connected my playstation and head on it seems okay but not what I remember seeing in the box store and the viewing angles are horrible. If I am not right in front of the tv the colors almost look washed or worn out. I did some research on it and figured maybe it was something I was doing wrong maybe I had to calibrate the screen or something? No sir, unfortunately what I found out was that LG put different panels in these tv's some have what are called IPS Panels (IPS Panels are the nicer panels and is what I saw in the box store) and some have VA Panels (what I bought on Amazon, not saying its Amazon's fault its just LG not putting the same panels in all the le5300's). I am very displeased with the way LG could do this. Thats like porsche making there cars with hyundai parts. It just doesn't make sense that they could do that, I mean there should be some kind of regulations council to prevent companies from doing stuff like this.I am now hoping that Amazon will let me return the tv and refund me all my money. I would have love to gotten the one at the box store when they had their sale, given it was about 50 bucks more but at least I would have known I was getting the one I wanted. I also found out that the tvs that have the IPS Panels have a W in the serial number or if you have a magnify glass or a camera you can zoom in and see that the pixels of the IPS panels are shaped like this < while the VA panels are shaped like squares. The IPS panels are superior, offer better viewing angels, and better coloring. So all in all this tv is a steal if you can get it with IPS panel.

Gateway ADC-320 Connected DVD Player with Wireless 802.11g Card Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Lot of DVD players have the capability of playing MP3s, but having to burn to a CD isn't the most ideal for me since I don't want to have to burn before listening and I have such a varied taste in music. Having the ability to stream music from my PC where all of my MP3s are stored to my home stereo wirelessly made this unit almost worth it solely by itself. One is able to select albums, artists, or playlists. The on screen display is pretty basic and boring (i.e. a few colors with straight lines and square boxes).
With recent firmware upgrades you can even have a picture slideshow (also streamed and one can specify the delay rate and this can occur while playing streaming MP3s).
This unit is basically the same as the ADC-220 from gateway, except it has a newer 802.11g vs. 802.11b network card) -- this helps with the problems people experienced in the past since the bandwidth of 802.11g is about 5x as much as 802.11b (11mb vs 54mb) and 802.11g router/access points are very inexpensive nowadays.
This unit is very similar to the GoVideo D2730 since they both use Digital5 as the PC client software. Current firmware is similar to the new standard for home networking UPnP, but I wasn't able to get MusicMatch's UPnP to work as of yet.
The device supports PAL and NTSC TV formats, so taking advantage of one the of best un-documented and un-supported feature I can play DVDs from the UK (and other regions) that I couldn't on other DVD machines (SETR9). Of course this also plays videos downloaded from the internet or homemovies that are archived on your PC. UK's BBC is starting to provide arhived video that should be supported since this player supports MPEG 1/2/4 and others (Microsoft Media Center, AVI). I haven't used the microphone inputs, but this is a solid DVD performer with 5.1 surround with optical out, component video, etc.
The only negatives are you can't fast forward PC based movies (you can forward to a time, but not like a standard DVD search where the screen speeds through while you watch, of course DVDs with this player search like any other on the market), the remote isn't as sleek as it should be (it's colorful and not very ergonomic -- looks like it was made for the Asian market).
The ADC-320 is about a 1/3 less than the GoVideo one (plus Gateway's comes with the 802.11g card, I believe GoVideo's is a wired version -- they have a new D2740 which has 802.11g). The Philips Streamium looks pretty nice too and that's fully UPnP supportable, but Gateway is still half the price of that one, if not more. This is a solid deal and I am just as happy with it as I was when I bought it about 6 months ago.

Gateway's connected DVD player merges plug-and-play networking capabilities with the latest in home-theater technology so you can stream your music, photo, and video files from a Windows-based PC in the study right to your living-room entertainment system. The progressive-scan-capable player is fully compatible with DVD-Video, CD, VCD/SVCD, Kodak Picture CD, and recordable discs full of JPEG, MP3, or WMA (Windows Media Audio) files, so you can still enjoy its authoritative features even if you're not inclined to use the networking feature just yet. Whether your living room is currently home to an HDTV or you're merely thinking of "someday," the Gateway player stands ready to deliver the full potential of your DVDs. Progressive scanning, referred to as 480p for the number of horizontal lines that compose the video image, creates a picture using twice the scan lines of a conventional DVD picture, giving you higher resolution and sharper images while eliminating nearly all motion artifacts.

The player's rear panel sports a single PC Card slot (also referred to as PCMCIA) for wired or wireless access to a Windows-based home network. Basic networking requirements consist of a computer with a 700 MHz or faster Pentium processor running Microsoft Windows 98 SE or higher with a network connection, 20 MB free hard-drive space, 128 MB RAM, and Gateway's specially made 802.11g DVD card, which can be used in either a wired or a wireless configuration. The 802.11g DVD card, which comes with the DVD player, uses the 54 Mbps wireless networking standard, making it nearly five times faster than the widely used wireless-B products found in homes, businesses, and public wireless hotspots around the country.
Far more convenient but a little more complicated to configure is a wireless setup, which lets you place your hardware in separate rooms without need for lengthy cable runs. This option requires the additional purchase of a wireless networking device (a router if you'll have multiple network users or an access point for a single connection) to relay data between your PC and the DVD player's card. Access your Windows-based home network wirelessly via the ADC-320's PC Card slot and included 802.11g DVD card.

LG 60PX950 60PX950 60 1080p Plasma 3D TV Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have had this TV for about three weeks now, and I am very impressed. The features are very comprehensive with internet capabilities that not only includes Netflix and Vudu, but also Yahoo Widgets. And every time you enter its internet capabilities, it makes a quick check for updates, so it should be easy to pick up enhancements if/when LG introduces them in the future. The TV comes with two remotes, one of which has a motion sensor (think Wii) so when you wave it in the air it moves a cursor around over menus on the screen. I think that's a great concept and it works well for basic menu function. The USB port reads external hard disks with all of the different content I have thrown at it without any problems, and it has a great interface for navigating the folders.
The picture quality is excellent as compared to the 65 inch 1080P Mitsubishi I replaced, but also as compared to the other 6 TVs in my house. Nothing beats the last generation plasma screens in brilliance and contrast. I actually still find myself starring in amazement at the quality of the picture while watching shows.The 3D features are much more than just a gimmick. I have four 3D movies, of which "A Christmas Carol", "The Grand Canyon", and "Under the Sea" are absolutely spectacular. The latter is provided free with the BX580 3D Blu-ray player after sending in a coupon (I received it in the mail after about two weeks). I wear eye glasses when watching TV, and I was concerned that it would be a hassle to have the 3D glasses "on top" of those, but the 3D effect is good enough to make it worthwhile.
The sound quality of the TV is what you would expect, but isn't of much interest to me since I have it hooked up to a Pioneer VSX-1020 amplifier. Sure sounds great through the amplifier and my Harman Kardon speakers. One item of some concern, however, is that the "HDMI-CEC" (or LG's Simplink) doesn't work quite the way it should with that amplifier and I am not able to fully control the receiver through HDMI. However, using a Harmony remote provides much of the same capabilities.
Mounting a 60 inch plasma is not an easy job (it is heavy, and not easy to lift - even for two people), but it sure pays off with the way this TV looks! It doesn't have a frame in the normal sense. Just one large glass panel. And it looks great - very clean and almost decadent. I used the Simplicity SXDP4 for the mount and it gets it as close to the wall as possible for this TV if you get angled plugs (HDMI, Toslink, and Coax - the last two are only needed if you get over-the-air broadcast), and an Ethernet cable with a very short plug. It's a tight fit, but it looks fantastic!
This TV is excellent in almost every way and highly recommended! I would buy it again in a heartbeat!
**** UPDATE **** I have recently discovered that the audio output (e.g. from the optical out cable) from Netcast (e.g. Vudu, NextFlix, etc.) on this TV is only 2.1, which makes those pay services useless for any serious home theater viewing with this TV (I will instead need to use my LG blu-ray, which is also equipped with Netcast and with true surround sound output). Therefore, I reduced my rating by one star. I sure hope a firmware upgrade can fix this in the future, and that such an upgrade is possible. If you bought the TV and the lack of surround sound from Netcast bothers you, let LG know!
**** UPDATE #2 **** Apparently, LG listened! This evening the TV found new firmware and updated itself, and I am now getting Dolby 5.1 surround sound from Vudu!!! I no longer have any complaints about this TV, and I have now had it for almost two months.

LG 42LD450 42-Inch 1080p 60 Hz LCD HDTV Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)It took me about three days to decide to pull the trigger on this TV after looking at written reviews on Amazon and even some video demos online. About four hours after receiving it and I haven't left my room.
This TV is simply lovely so far. The setup was a bit confusing at first and the stand is not the best I've ever seen but the instructions for setting up the stand were adequate and I was able to get the TV up and running in about ten minutes (the first five of which I sat confused).
Really, the negatives on this purchase stopped after the setup and the stand. Besides the stand, this TV is just pretty. One of the first things that stood out to me was the fact that the screen is so sleek and does not reflect any glares at all. Also, I had read about a terrible viewing angle and I honestly watched this TV from the side with no difference in the picture at all. It's so big that it's practically impossible to have a bad seat in the room that you watch this TV.
If you plan on playing video games on this TV, you will not be disappointed in the least. The only issues I've had with the TV is getting my colors juuuust right, although the "Game" picture setting has sufficed very nicely.
The sound on the TV is great. It is centered and doesn't feel empty in the least. It is a very full and rich sound that will work just fine if you don't have an expensive surround sound system.
After paying [...] and receiving free two day shipping, I am literally ecstatic that I was able to nab such a nice TV. After spending the last three years with a 24" Insignia LCD that was 720p, I am ready to lock myself in my room.
If you are like me and can't shell out more than 500 dollars for an HD TV, this is the TV you want to pick up right away. I simply cannot find anything that I dislike beyond the stand itself that makes me rate this any less than 5 stars.
Don't be alarmed by the 60hz refresh rate, I honestly can't see how 60hz is so inferior to 120. Especially when 120hz is almost 500 dollars more expensive.
Trust me, if you are on the fence about this TV -- take the leap. This coming from a 21 year old college student who is now going to be the most popular person on his floor.

Designed to complement Sony's WEGA TVs and other components, the DVP-S570D DVD is an ideal hub for the modern home theater system. The player offers such features as a built-in Dolby Digital decoder (a convenient feature for people who don't own a separate decoder), Dolby Digital and DTS outputs, and Digital Cinema Sound, which reproduces the precise acoustics of Hollywood's most acclaimed mastering stages. As with many Sony DVD players, the unit also offers block noise reduction, which minimizes the background noise that often interferes with DVD images; a digital video enhancer, which improves the contrast and picture detail; and digital video equalization, which optimizes the picture quality of images using factory preset or custom settings.
The DVD player is designed for compatibility with a host of additional components. Not only does it offer the standard component video, S-video (2), and composite video (2) outputs, but it also offers a 5.1-channel output for direct connection to a receiver with 5.1-channel input connectors, along with both an optical and coaxial digital output and an S-link connector. Specific functions unique to this DVD player include a jog shuttle dial that lets users flip through CD or DVD tracks, chapter preview, and strobe playback, along with such Sony standards as SmoothScan and SmoothSlow modes for crisp fast forward and slow motion and multi-angle playback.
The unit plays CD, DVD, and Video CD formats, and its parental lock feature prevents children from viewing mature-content movies. The player also offers CD and DVD Text, which display artists, titles, and even jacket covers on the front panel and TV.

LG 32LD350 32-Inch 720p 60 Hz LCD HDTV Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is the first LCD TV I've bought so I did a tone of research before finally settling on this unit.
Things I love about this TV:
-The backlight on this thing turns way up so you don't have to worry about having dark scenes like in Interview with the vampire you can't see. The wide viewing angle is also great.
-On the quick menu you can easily change the sound between Music and Cinema and I can actually hear the difference. Yes they are tv speakers not surround sound but for my studio apartment it is more then adequate.
-I noticed I was getting a little noise on the sound when I had the Clear Voice on but totally fixed it when I put the Auto Volume option on in the audio main menu.
-I keep the tv on a lot for music during the day since I work from home and there is this great button on the remote labeled energy where you can quickly adjust from 100% which is the best for viewing to maximum energy saving. I like this not only for the energy savings but also to save the back light from 100% constant use.
-I noticed that one of my shows off of my Roku (digital box that streams netflix) wasn't HD and the picture wasn't looking to hot. I adjusted on the picture main menu the aspect ratio to Just Scan and it actually cleaned it up really nicely. This is important,several of my friends have really ritzy tv set ups but if it's not HD the picture is almost unbearable. This one you can watch older movies/tv shows and HD without having to fiddle with everything to get a good picture.
-Overall picture quality can be adjusted by so many advanced options that if you play with it I'm sure you can get exactly what you want.
-I know it is 720 versus 1080 but at this price range when I looked at the specs if you go for 1080 it seems that you will get dark spots in dark scenes and it's refresh rate will be so low that you will notice it in quick scenes plus the audio seemed unreliable. I think at this 32inch size 720 is really not that noticeable.
Very satisfied customer. Only complaint is you need 4 screws to attach the tv to it's base and my baggy only came with 3 in it. Luckily the hardware store is right down the street so I was able to get something comparable instead of waiting for them to ship it.
Do your self a favor, get some good HDMI cables with noise reduction that can handle full HD (found some on amazon for like $7). I haven't experienced any blurring at all on this tv while watching movies/shows like others have commented about. Regular cables don't cut it and you won't want to wait when your tv arrives.
Happy Viewing

(More customer reviews)==Updated Jan 20th==
My first impression was positive, the hardware is beautiful and appears well made, the interface too initially seems pretty good. The 2D picture is great and the price is very appealing.
That said... Be warned the 3D crosstalk on this television is TERRIBLE! We bought it with hopes primarily of enjoying a bunch of 3D games on our PS3 (Call of Duty: Black Ops and Gran Turismo 5) only to be confronted with staggering crosstalk and ghosting. It was bad enough that my wife asked "Is the TV broken?" I find that the 3D crosstalk makes playing some games dizzying, annoying and fatiguing. In particular scenes with black on a bright (usually white) background will have your eyes crossing and head aching. For the record, we've tried with both 1.3x and 1.4 HDMI cables to no avail.

(Note: As of Dec 8th the following seems to no longer be an issue) Furthermore after viewing 3D content on the PS3 and then returning to the XMB we'd be in a very messed up state where the LG UI was corrupted and remained so until another 3D movie was played. Really screwy stuff. Hopefully we'll get a firmware update on the PS3 or LG end soon?
Update (Nov 29th): Please see the user images above for examples of the crosstalk in 3D video.
Update (Nov 30th): We've called LG twice about the crosstalk, the first call consisted of a 45 minute wait before they insisted we end the call and try against another kind of 3D content (we did, the problem persisted). The second call resulted in a 60 minute wait, speaking to a person for 2 minutes to confirm my name and phone number, then a 10 minute wait before being accidentally hung up on... LG is _really_ not impressing me here.
Update (Dec 2nd): We just had the LG Tech over about the 3D crosstalk issues. He confirmed that the 3D glasses and IR Transmitter were all functioning properly. After insisting there was no problem by examining some low cross-talk videos (like under water scenes) we showed the tech the scene I attached screenshots of (to user images above) and he was finally convinced that the crosstalk was really bad. He then left to his van for a bit (I assume to talk to his boss) and returned insisting that '3D is in it's infancy and you can't expect the 3D to work very well'... What?! If you know it doesn't work, why are you selling it?! We suggested to him that maybe the white/black (or light/dark) refresh rate of LG LED TVs might not be adequate for 3D but he insisted that the refresh rate is perfectly fine for 3D (I beg to differ!). The tech finally offered to replace the IR unit in the TV but claimed he 'didn't think it would help at all.'
So we confirmed that the TV is fine, the glasses are fine, the 3D content is fine (and the LG tech insisted that the light/dark refresh is fine) but somehow because 3D is in it's "infancy" there is horrible crosstalk?! That doesn't make any sense.
Update (Dec 8th): So the LG technician came by again yesterday to replace the part (the one that he said had no chance of resolving the 3D crosstalk problem). He (and I) were right, replacing this IR board did nothing at all to effect the 3D crosstalk/ghosting issues. I've confirmed the same amount of crosstalk in the PS3 Sizzler video and in MotorStorm 3D Rift. The technician explained that replacing the part is all he can do and from here on out it's between us and LG support... I love it when an employee of a company absolves themselves of helping you... /sigh.
Update (Dec 13th): Minus one star because LG is making this whole crosstalk problem so painful for us. We just ended our 8th call with them and they're insisting on sending another tech to look at our TV rather than giving us a replacement.
Update (Dec 15th): I've done an analysis of the crosstalk on this TV with a high speed video camera, you can see it here: [...] I think this is very convincing evidence that this TV suffers from strong crosstalk.
Update (Jan 20th): So we've now made two dozen calls to LG and had six technicians check out our TV. Although every technician agrees with us that crosstalk is a major problem on this set LG is stonewalling us and refusing to exchange or replace the TV. In the executive service reps words "we don't deal with customer service issues" and "in eight years here I've never seen a replacement offered to an unsatisfied customer". I wish those were LG's official mottos because if they were I could have saved myself a lemon of a purchase.
The Good:
* The 2D image is really great in most situations (No complaints watching Avatar, playing GT5, COD:BO, etc. in 2D).
* Good value for the size and features.
* The firmware for this TV is being actively supported by LG.
* This is the only TV I've ever owned that doesn't letterbox when connected to my wife's Mac mini.
The Bad:
* 3D crosstalk/ghosting ruins 3D functionality for almost all movies and games.
* Terrible telephone support from LG.
* Horrendous flash-lighting on blank black screen (especially with auto-dimming off)
* Overall the brightness seems very uneven in dark scenes, with or without local dimming enabled.
* Local dimming is a joke, there appear to be only about 24 dimming fields. This is not enough resolution to be practically useful.
* The UI is mediocre, you will be shown an annoying pop-up every time you enable 3D or DLNA. I hate pop-ups.
* If you have any problems LG will be completely loath to help you, we're 8 calls, 2 tech visits and countless hours into dealing with them and have no resolution in sight.
* LG, admitting problems with the 3D technology in their LED TVs is moving to another, passive, tech for their next generation of 3D sets.
Note: DON'T BUY FROM ADORAMA unless you are VERY sure you are going to love your TV. Their return policy is "No Hassle" only in as far as it's no hassle for them since they will not accept returns.

LG Electronics 8x DVD-R DL/24x CD-DA USB 2 Slim External Super-Multi DVD Rewriter GP08NU20BK (Wine) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I recently got an Aspire One netbook to have an ultra-light computer in my briefcase on a daily basis. I soon realized it would be nice to have a DVD drive to play and burn DVD's and CD's.
The LG Portable Super Multi-Drive is slim and light, just like my Acer Aspire netbook. Its glossy black top attracts fingerprints, just like the Aspire...they look like they were made for each other.
The LG Drive plugs into a USB port on my netbook, so no bulky power pack is needed. The USB cord has two power plugs, because some USB ports may not put out enough power, so the cord allows plugging into two USB ports to get a higher level of power, if needed. One plug was enough with the Acer.
Because the unit is designed to draw a minimum of power, the DVD tray only pops out about an inch when you press the button. You pull it out the rest of the way manually. It also has a tiny "bobby pin" hole for an emergency release, to open the tray if a DVD gets stuck in the tray.
I used it first to watch a DVD movie I had rented. Windows Media Player with Window 7 produced a terrific picture, but no sound. I downloaded the free VLC media player, and the LG then played back the DVD movie with both a great picture, and nice stereo sound.
When I then played the DVD again using Windows Media Player, WMP also was producing stereo sound. I suspect the VLC player installed an audio codec that Windows 7 was missing, and that codec is now being used by both VLC and Windows to play back DVD movies.
I also used the LG to copy some of my favorite CD's to the Acer's hard drive. The LG did the job quickly and quietly. The LG is small enough and light enough to carry along on a vacation. It converts my Acer netbook into a nice movie player, and lets me listen to music CD's when the movie is over.
I am guessing that a lot of folks using Windows 7 may run into the audio problem when trying to watch a movie DVD. They need to understand that the problem has nothing to do with the LG Drive, it simply means they need to download the free VLC media player and allow it to install the audio codecs that Windows 7 is missing...thanks Bill Gates for leaving essential audio codecs out of Windows 7.

LG LHB953 1000-Watt Blu-ray Disc Home Theater In a Box Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This system is great. What I was most concerned with in buying this system was the convergence of the Web, television and music in our family room. This system seemed to meet all my requirements on paper and I was satisfied when I received the box.
Setup was simple and everything you need is in the box except for one thing: it needs to be near your router so that you can network it. My router is upstairs so I got around that through powerline networking which allows you to send your network through your power outlets. Works like a charm.
The bottom line is that I get my Netflix movies directly through the BluRay player...no waiting for the mailman for most movies. I also get FM radio and Pandora as well as my cable TV.
Great product. I recommend it.

LG Super Multi Blue Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Best decision I made when doing my first PC build was to purchase this drive. I haven't had a problem with it and love its performance. I've burned CDs and DVD DL discs quickly. It was extremely easy to install. Windows 7 automatically installed the drivers. The Cyberlink software is simple to install and ready to go. It doesn't use up a lot of the system when burning either. I wanted a blu-ray drive to take advantage of the graphics on my PC, and this was most definitely the best choice.
