How do you know if you need a tilting or fixed tv wall mount?

Any television should be facing its audience as far as possible. There are a number of reasons why a television may need to be tilted from vertical. Some rooms may have light sources that can cause intrusive reflections on the screen, whether the source is a light fitting or a window. It may be convenient to tilt the screen slightly to reflect those light sources away from viewers. Be aware that extreme angles will often reduce the image quality so use with caution.

The other reason is to face the television towards the audience when it is much higher than the audience. However, most installers and designers would try to avoid mounting a television so high that it needs to be tilted significantly. If it needs to be tilted, it is quite likely that the viewing position may prove uncomfortable for viewers.

In all cases, it is worth spending some time to plan the position of a television to avoid either of these conditions if possible.

Do satellite TV companies offer 1080p signal in the US?

As of summer 2008, all satellite and cable companies in the US transmit only 1080i digital signal. When a cable or satellite service is used, there is no advantage of 1080p TV set over 1080i TV set. However 1080p sets usually come with some other more advanced specifications, which may make the image higher quality. Cable and satellite companies do not intend to upgrade the 1080i signal to 1080p in the near future, since this would involve high investment outlays and greater broadband capacity in their network. 1080p TV sets can fully utilize their potential when blue ray discs are played from DVD players.

HD television is offered in several resolutions. The most common is 1920 pixels wide by 1080 pixels high, known as 1080i or 1080p. Less common but still HD is 720 line (1280 x 720).

Both 1080i and 720p are considered to be full HD and are the two standards used in broadcast today. 1080p is the same resolution as 1080i but the image is refreshed at twice the rate of 1080i. It is not currently being used for broadcast and is seen only on local sources such as games consoles, Bluray players etc.

There is another HD standard of 1035 lines. Used in Europe very briefly, it rarely if ever is used today and most modern television equipment won't support the format at all.

Can LCD screens experience pixel burn in?

Yes, they can. I've seen it in my repair ventures, but it's very, very seldom that it happens. It's also not known as ghosting, but is known as burn-in. Ghosting is what's known as another image that appears on the screen, the same as the one you're watching. It can be very close to the original images or a few inches away from the original image. This is usually cause by a reflection in the signal path, allowing the same signal to be received a bit later than the original, or it can occur in the cables used to connect the TV. LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) screens do not experience pixel burn-in, also known as "ghosting" like older plasma models could. Pixel burn-in occurs when an image is left on the television for a long period of time. When the TV is later turned off, the image that was previously on the screen can be faintly seen on the screen, known as ghosting.

How long does an LCD TV last if you keep it on twenty-four-seven?

Domestic televisions aren't rated to be left on full time although most commercial models are. There are few differences between them although power supplies, ventilation, cooling and internal monitoring tend to be uprated in commercial displays.

In either case, a display is likely to last for years if it in a situation where it is not becoming too warm and not subject to other adverse conditions. Although manufacturers are unlikely to offer such long warranties, a five to ten year life span is not an unreasonable expectation.

What is switched digital video?

== ==

Sounds like you're speaking of multiplexing, a method of putting more than one television signal on the same carrier, by switching from one signal to the next (usually up to eight video feeds) in a round robin style. Since the system operates at a very high frequency and the the video is running at a much lower frequency, it's possible to do this without the television receiver, satellite receiver or cable box showing any indication this is taking place. It's most common on satellite transmissions where it's now possible to send up to eight TV separate digital channel feeds in the space it one took to feed just one analog video feed.
