Realcycle worked for me.

Eeeee, I've caused a right debate haven't I?

Getting a good picture on these LCD / Plasmas is very difficuly indeed.
Most 'out of the box' settings are terrible.
I have just taken a 1080p LCD back as I was not happy with it.

Assuming a fault-free set, it isn't.

There is NO such thing. All tv's have some sort of fault, from Backlight
bleed (on LCD's), clouding, duff pixels, motion blur etc.

In that case, give up watching television.

That's the best suggestion I've seen for a long time. Thank goodness I still
enjoy reading books.

Since I can't see myself moving to HD for a while yet, I want
something that does the best possible with SD until it dies (and being
a 8 year old Philips screen, could be any moment now)


Has it died now?
Lol
Think you done well getting 8 years. I went off Phiilps at about the time
you must have bought it, due to bad reliability and poor quaulity pictures
compared with Panasonic and JVC.

Are Philips better these days with thier LCD/Plasmas?

Do you mean the web site FREEcycle?
That is a good place to get rid.
