ARC has its common issues. This is one of them. I kept getting sound cut out issues on my sound bar through HDMI ARC. But I switched to the 3.5mm sound input and all sound issues ceased happening.
Thx
I am not a Rep but knows from fact that this TV does not have HDMI ARC.
Thx
Anyone have one of these? Comparison to Hisense?
I don't have either of them, but from looking at previous deals, I think they are in different league, Hisense being the superior one.
I bought a TV from the eBay store at their last deal, the tracking number they sent said the item was delivered to a similar named suburb in a different state.
When I talked to customer service, they weren't helpful at all and just refunded me without trying to send out another one.
Shocking service. Buyer beware.
I had a 40 viano and it was rubbish. Worse than soniq, tcl, bauhn,….
Haha thanks, I can relate to horrible Soniq and tcl tvs
I have the 70" Viano TV (recent purchase at Big W). Basically, you get what you pay for, image quality lacks dynamic range, contrast is poor and the refresh rate is nowhere near adequate for live sport. Mine does have ACR though.
I bought the 49" Viano recently. Here's my review:
Photos here
Any good points?
Is there a particular set of images you displayed on that TV to help assess it's quality?
Are they readily available?
Wouldn't mind comparing my tv
Sorry to disappoint, but once I saw the results, I decided to destroy the evidence of my bad purchasing decision. For this tv I was mainly so surprised by the defects, that I didn't go through my normal set of tests.
Normally I would use a series of crazy over-saturated photos to help setup my contrast, brightness and saturation - the goal being to avoid washed out, or "solarised" or "highlight clipping" regions in high brightness areas. Here's a quick collection of 4K photos like that I gathered.
Other good place to start for reference tuning would be:
- eizo monitor tests
- Lagom.nl monitor tests
- more monitor test images
The goal is usually to avoid banding, and to have the full range of greyscale shades discernable.
It's depressing, but an all-black screen is also good if you're trying to setup for a cinema room. If its a dark room, turning the brightness on an LCD down a little can help get blacker blacks.
If you want to test for Chroma subsampling, or want to see how bad RGBW is, view this image on your TV
Hope that helps a little.
Hi rep. It does have hmdi ARC?
Thank you
