Another "Will it work..." Question This time with an LG tv
So I just got a new LG 32LH40 HDTV
32 Inch, 120hz, 1080p, 2.7ms response...

Will I have any problems with this?
I have read alot of threads already, and I think I am good, but I would be buying an extra 1-2 glasses along with the emitter, so I don't want to buy all this for nothing, plus if it doesn't work I may be able to return this TV and get one that will...
I'm very sorry if this is in the wrong section, but I have just started viewing these forums.
Thank you for your patience, I know you must get alot of these.

how do you actually tell if it's stepping it up or not?
As the response time is low, what do you actually look for/at?
I'm guessing there is no work around for this problem either, like forcing it under generic...?
I wish I had done more research into the 3d vision a couple days ago :([/quote]
Sadly, no. To work with nvidia 3d Vision, the LCD has to be able to receive TWO full 60Hz signals (=120Hz) and display them each at 60Hz so the image is fluid for each eye. A standard LCD can only receive & process a single 60Hz signal, and then with that "Trumotion/Smoothmotion technology" interpolates between the frames to output a synthetic 120Hz image. But there's no way to force the two sets of information (left eye image & right eye image) that are needed for 3d Vision to work.
Basically, any LCD that works with 3d Vision would have to have a dual-DVI connection (not the same thing as 2 dvi connections; 'dual-DVI' is a different cable/link that carries the full 120Hz signal TO the lcd).
And yeah, I agree that it's very shifty marketing. Even for those of us who know & understand the difference very well it can be hard to discern what's a "true" 120Hz unit and what just claims to be. The rule of thumb for now is that if it's not on nvidia's "System Requirements" page for 3d Vision, then it's probably not compatible.

While it says 120hz, it's not in reality actually 120hz, but
accepts a 60hz input and then converts it to 120hz..
Stupid and confusing marketing ploy if you ask me.

If the t.v is only a few days old why don't you just return it and get
one that is certified to work with 3d vision ?
There are also a few projectors that are certified working.
