Other than being aesthetically built, we wanted its built-in media player via USB. D550's PQ vs Tosh RV700E is pretty much the same with my eyes (my wife likes RV700 better).

For the Media Player situation, were pretty much okay hooking up my laptop via HDMI for now. :)

Bukod nga sa media player, another plus is the 2 years warranty of samsung, I believe. Unless, 2 yrs warranty din si Tosh. Dati kasi kaya nahuhuli sa listahan ko si Sammy due to its price but now parang consider ko na sya though many says ok pq ng rv700 esp on cable tv. hmmm...  ::)

tnx  ;)

Yes I'm pleasantly surprised to see the RV700's cable TV performance. You can even fine tune each channel as you see fit. Meron weird nga lang, kung off yung signal booster mas malinaw kesa sa naka-on. Maybe a bug on Tosh's part. Destiny user here.

Anyways, this is getting a bit OT. Sorry admins.

Thanks for the purchase.

If the movie file is encoded with subtitle, the usb media player will display subtitle also.  :D

what if separate yung movie file at srt (subtitle) file, can the lcd still display the subtitle?

Question lang?

nagpeplay ba ng movie with separate subtitle ito?

saka anung panel kaya ang gamit nito? S, A o C panels.

sa mga meron na neto, please verify nyo nga kung SQ01 ang panel sa sticker sa box (see pic)

Hi sir, got it from a local appliance store at P24k since meron pa shipping cost sa province namin.

I figured better to get a local purchase para di na hassle for warranty or assistance :-)

Yes, pwede. As long as yung video file at subtitles ay magkapareho ng file name.

Ex:  Avatar.avi and Avatar.srt

This TV is really good in total performance. I do have one concern though, it does NOT have the "resume" option that other models have. If you play a movie and decided to stop it, when you play it back, you'll have to forward/skip until your last viewed scene. It does not remember where you stopped.

Got one LA32D550 from SnS last friday night, been checking  this unit and Panasonic VIERA TH-L32C3X 32 sa  malls and dito sa forums, but last friday bago ako pumunta sa SnS, since my wife went to Podium, sabi check ko muna ulit this time sa Anson's. At first I was very satisfied with the PQ of Panasonic althought hirap sya talaga mag-read with my 320gHD not like sa Samsung in just a sec. read akad yung files. Iba talaga sa SnS you can compared it side by side. With freebies ba na FiiO ;D, thanks again SnS.

hi im new here. how did u connect your ls32d550 to external speakers? I did not want to use the headphone jack. I dont have a optical digital cable  (where can you buy one anyway) and my amp is really old so i can only use RCA.

I didnt have any problem setting up my panasonic viera since it has an RCA audioo out. My samsung doesnt. I have had so many sleepless nights trying to figure this out
