Official Website! MP3 Downloader: Download music on your Symbian S60 V5 This model corresponds to the Samsung LED TV, 2009, Series 7, 40 "screen
In this post I will not do another review, of many there, but simply gather interesting information about the model and the like. Here's
manual. USB 2.0 Movie Both series 7 and 8 of Samsung can watch videos from an external drive connected via USB (in the 6 series is also possible, although you have to turn it from a hidden menu
.) best thing is the ability to play mkv files with total fluency. But all is not as nice as he is painted. Not all MKV play correctly, we must take into account the following:
Just read the first track AUDIO:
If the language of the first track is English, we can only see the mkv in English from the TV can not change the language. What is the best way to fix this? Then using the mkvmerge program, which comes in the kit mkv files creator.
With it we can change the order of tracks, or directly delete the tracks that do not interest us and save space.
not read audio tracks encoded in DTS:
Just read tracks encoded with AC3. For this and the previous one, if the first audio track is encoded with DTS hear any sound when playing video. Solution? If the mkv contains another audio track in AC3 can change the order mkvtoolnix. If you only have DTS, you can convert it to AC3 using MKV AudioConverter
Popcorn.
not read mkv with more than 8 Ref Frames:
If you try it you'll see a nice error saying "unsupported video format." Solution? Re-encode the file.
not read subtitles embedded in mkv files: The TV only read the subtitles stored in an SRT. Solution? Extract the subtitles with mkvextract (also comes with the kit mkvtoolnix). To remove tracks from a just mkv to run this command: mkvextract tracks "fichero.mkv" tracknum "fichero.ext"
where tracknum is the track number (you can see the tracks with the-g command mkvinfo
"fichero.mkv" ) ext is the extension and the type of track (if avi divx, mp3 if it is audio, or if subtitles srt). You can also use the graphical interface
MKVExtractGUI
. When you have the subtitles in a srt file, you put in the same directory as the mkv, and the name must be EXACTLY the same for both files (except the extension, of course). -
- Firmware hack SamyGO is a project which is achieved through reverse engineering, modifying the firmware (partially open source) of different TV's Samsung. What changes? As such do biggest subtitles, or to watch videos through a local network, shared with SAMBA or NFS. In the project's website explains how to install the firmware on your TV.
- If your TV has the latest firmware, or you have updated, you can not use SamyGO. But there seems to progress in the field: read here
and - here. Recommended Settings In the next site you can see the recommended values \u200b\u200bfor the configuration of your Samsung LED: http://www.hdtvtest.co.uk/news/samsung-ue40b7020-settings-20090522149.htm

Input Lag
Input lag is the time it takes from a device connected to your TV sent the signal until it is shown in the screen. For example if we connected a console, the input lag to be minimal, since it corresponds to the time that passes between when you press a button on the controller and displays the action on screen. This delay is because the TV makes certain processes to improve the image, it takes a few milliseconds. Even small amounts, those milliseconds can make playing a game is a desperation.
How to fix this? Well, to fix the TV (like virtually all of the market) has a mode called "game", which disables the image processing for optimal response times.
How do we measure? We can measure it using a laptop with HDMI output, a camera (or a camera phone) and find application in
http://tft.vanity.dk
. We connect the laptop to the TV and see the same in the two screens. Now run the program, we see a kind of timer on the two screens. Well, at any time make a photo of the two screens appear. In the picture we have the time difference. If the two screens show exactly the same means no input lag.
Consider the test using the Samsung LED Series 7:
Despite what many people say about Input Lag in Samsung LED TV, here you can see first hand the Input Lag is excellent and is a great TV to play with your PS3, your Xbox or whatever you want.
