Toshiba, the founder of the new disk format HD DVD, has launched very recently the TV 32C3030 equipped with a slab simple definition HD (1366x768) and the Active Vision, which is supposed to improve the image of 4 aspects: level of detail, color, motion and contrast.
With DTT in source or a DVD player, everything begins rather well: no video noise really embarrassing. The contours of the forms still have an effect aliasing, but the contrast of 700:1 measured remains high enough to give relief to correct the image (see box on the contrast). Rendering with HD sources such as HD DVD shows a slight tingling but it is still acceptable and will not result in noticeable discomfort. The details of the HD are present, however, we have already seen better from Samsung or Philips. The PC connected to the HDMI demand a resolution of 1280 x 720 pixels to produce a stable and clearly legible to surf the web, for example. Note that we must go through the zoom mode PC to avoid overscan. If you decide to use analog connections as YUV, the 1080i is accepted while the VGA input remains functional until 1360 x 768 pixels.
The color temperature is, as in most cases, pushed unreasonably to 12500 K (for the standard reminder is located at 6500 ° K) at the outlet of cardboard. Result: a very cold that will flatter your eye in the window. The deltaE average is still too high at 11 (the limit must not exceed 3 so that the loyalty is to rendezvous), but by opening the OSD we discovered many new features for color balance. So much the better!
Toshiba has focused on the OSD really rich in functions since it has an adjustment based on the color red, green and blue as well as yellow, magenta and cyan. We are offered 2 different settings: the nuance and saturation which ranges from +15 to -15. Very well thought out but it was nice to maximum values… nothing happens. Great disillusionment therefore colorimetry to remain as it was. We just passed the temperature setting color mode "Hot". Then come the famous 3D color management not very effective that does not make real progress in the image. The backlight control, it plays its role by enhancing the contrast in dark scenes. Finally, the last set of optimization proposed on the depth of black, it seems, is set to 100 by default. We can not be certain it is the original tuning because the manufacturer has not set functions niclenja accessed directly from the OSD. This OSD which incorporates the usual Toshiba here and does not deprive him to fill a large part of the picture. Difficult then to see changes on the image in real time. The Active Vision so promising leaves us a bit about our hunger. Finally, a word on the remanence announced at 8ms, which is in the average of what it is today: not really visible trails behind the shapes in motion.
