New Philips TV and DVD !

March 11th, 2005 at 05:12pm

Yesterday, finally we said good bye to our old TV ! That’s the end of its 19 yr old journey. It did its job pretty well till the last minute. By origin, it was Onida, but over the years, our TV has had components from almost all the companies. :) Philips to Videocon to Hitachi :).. So, it was kind of an assembled TV. Anyway, its history now.

Yesterday, we bought a new Philips 29″ flat TV along with a DVD Player. The TV is a typical flat TV with some fancy Eye-Fi feature. It has N number of sound modes, 200 channel support etc. The quality of picture is great. No problems. Only problem is, it takes a couple of seconds to start up. Almost all the new 29″ TVs now have that behavior. The manual was somewhat shady, not that great.

We also bought a Philips DVD player, which can play almost any disc :).. Audio CD, MP3, VCD, SVCD, Kodak PhotoCD, DVD (R, RW, +R) and just plain JPG files.

Yet to fully experiment with the player. The manual is pretty decent and is elaborate.

If I come across any new feature worth mentioning, will definitely post it here.
