Samsung DLP HL-T5687S Opinions

[dperrone]

I also have the HLT5089S, couldn't be happier, I think it is great. My question is I have it hooked up with a Panny BD30 and the day I initially hooked up the BD30 I was almost 100% positive I selected 1080/24 on the
BD30 and that same day I watched Ratatoulie. Ever since then though the Panny will not let me select 24fps ? I then thought I read somewhere where the Panny will only select 24fps IF the set can display it. So I just figured maybe the 5089S can't display it. Now upstairs I have a Pioneer Plasma
1080P/24 and it ALWAYS displays the 24fps. I am a little confused with the whole 60hz and 120hz? So should I be able to display 24fps with the Samsung? Sorry if I sound like an idiot here just a little confused myself with the Samsung.

The 89 series is an 87 with a few enhancements

Bluetooth connection for screenshots and wireless headphones
HDMI 1.3 connection
I think 1 or 2 other trivial things

I don't know about forcing 24fps on the BD30, but I know your set will accept it. The problem is, it apparently uses a 3:2 pulldown process to convert it back to 60 instead of using 5:5. When I force 24fps from my PS3 to my HLT5089S and I hit the info button on my Samsung remote, it shows 1080p@24.

You should just go ahead and move a step or two up and get the Samsung HLT6189S. I could care less about PIP, but it has HDMI 1.3 and processes the 24fps just fine. I have one hooked up to an Onkyo 605, a PS3, and a Wii. Everything looks amazing. I got mine from ABT Electronics in Chicago much cheaper than I would have in the store. Most places don't even carry this larger, upgraded model. If you have the price difference to spare, just get the better one. You won't be sorry.

I have this and I love it, I reviewed the TV on my epinions site if you care to read it.
