Led Tv Lags

Our new great with 3d flavored technology of tvs have a perfect problem called lag. Mostly called input lag. I hate watching anything lower resolutions like 1280x800 or lower, and my father bought a Led Tv one month ago (not for me, he wants 3d ). It's a good choice of price/performance, LG 42LW500 (first I don't want to give model because of marketing or ads but in the end I gave it ), and most led tv's has this input lag problem.

What's input lag?

And this lag not only on gaming, if you're watching something from external, in some videos it has lag too. May be codec related, may be not, it still disturb you when you're watching. And my question is, what's your solution for this if you got this of course? Installing new firmware, editing picture options, codecs of videos etc?

Thanks btw.

Re: Led Tv Lags

It's not just 3D TVs; my low-end HTiaB has a slight lag in both audio and video due to DSP; it was especially noticeable when I tried using the HTiaB as a practice amp after a distortion pedal.

If you're talking about a lag in the video, perhaps there's an audio delay setting you can tweak.

Re: Led Tv Lags

I think if I get a job I'll definitely buy boxee for playing medias. The solution for lag. An expensive one of course.
