Why is plasma TV technology a failure?
The question presumes that plasma television technology is failure and that is far from the truth. Plasma televisions have been around since the early days of flat screen television and were in fact the only technology available to reach the 40" and larger screen sizes.
When they were launched, they could boast higher contrast and better color saturation than the LCD based competitive products. Both technologies suffered a little from image smearing, caused by the time taken for a pixel to change from one level to another although there was a general consensus that plasma displays were a little faster to update than many LCD models.
Plasma was not without problems and many early televisions suffered from images being "burnt" onto the screen where static images were allowed to remain on view for too long. Plasma screens have been expensive and over the last ten years or so, LCD prices have reduced in cost faster than many plasma models.
Plasma displays in 2013 are becoming unusual and although there are still a number of models on sale, the development of LCD displays with LED back lighting and the upcoming OLED displays, the future for plasma is looking bleak. It will be something of a surprise to see plasma on sale by the end of 2013 if current trends continue.
Although we can expect plasma to fade away very soon, the technology has served users well over the previous decade and despite a few problems, it has been a success during that time.
POLAROID, no longer in the camera business, makes their own sets.The reviews indicate they are reliable, and their service department is the best. I've a 2 year old 32" which has been OK. Good pic, sound is the best as it's level is consistent.
What can go wrong with a plasma tv?
Plasma TVs can get burn-in images (especially when playing video games on them), they get hotter than LCD TVs do, they don't work so well in higher altitudes, and generally have a shorter life span.
A 6" thick line running top to bottom can appear on your plasma and never come off.The repair shop will charge at least $150 just to look at it and hundreds of dollars afterwards. Always get a warranty. they usually fail within the first 2 years.
Plasma TV's are usually rated at 60,000 hrs to half life. That mean if you watch tv 8 hours a day it would take over 20 years to decrease the life span of your plasma. Old CRT tube TVs we're typically rated at 10000 -15000 thousand hours. Early generation plasmas had a tendency to have image retiention, but modern plasmas no longer have that problem. If your looking for a TV that has better black levels, higher contrast ratios, better viewing angles, better color reproduction, get a plasma TV. Plasmas in higher altitudes somethimes has a ringing noise but you have to get higher than 8000ft usally. I was a CEDIA convention in Denver and I heard no buzzing sound from any of the plasma booths.

Can audio and video signals can be sent simultaneously over bnc cable?
BNC is a type of connector for co-ax cables. It is commonly used in the broadcast industry although seen far less in domestic situations.
There are two ways that audio can be carried with a video signal over a single co-ax cable. The first is by using RF signals, as are used in terrestrial broadcasts and picked up by an antenna. Signals can be either digital or analog.
The alternative is a broadcast digital signal called SDI (serial digital interface). SDI carries digital component video, audio and other control data and represents the best quality video signals available. The interface supports SD and HD signals and runs at 270Mbit or 1.5Gbit, depending on the resolution. Unfortunately, SDI is not seen outside broadcast facilities. Despite the ease of use and compact size of the cables, SDI does not support the copy protection that is demanded by content producers and so has never made it to domestic equipment.
Where can you buy a Samsung plasma replacement for a tv screen?
A replacement panel will cost more than the TV is worth. Time to get a new TV.
it should automate it, but the quality will be dampened when you use analog plugs; you must use digital plugs in order to use the "true hi def" signals, otherwise the unit will downgrade the signal to again, a crappy audio signal.
How to connect Bose cinematic speakers to tv?

What are the main causes for a lamp in a rear projection television to burn out?
Heat, plain and simple. The average lamp life expectancy is 2000 hours before they start acting up.
Why? Because the lamp itself has a quartz envelope and as it heats up, it changes shape (usually at the bottom of the bulb) which lowers the internal lamp pressure causing it to draw more power to keep it lit, which in turn, generates more heat, etc. It's just the `circle of life'.

What are the best cables to use for hooking up audio and video components?
Audio components can be connected with speaker wire for signals from amplifiers. Brand doesn't matter, although a thicker wire will have less loss than a thinner wire. For the best audio, optical or coaxial digital cable for digital audio signals. For the best video, HDMI is the current standard for connection between high-definition sources and receivers and video displays.
How can you earthquake your flat screen tv that is not wall mounted?
My 52" Sony actually came with a strap which is meant to be mounted to the wall behind the TV, to prevent it from falling over. This would not only protect from it falling over in an earthquake, but also from a young child pulling it over and potentially seriously hurting themselves. If your TV didn't come with a strap like that, I'd suggest using wire attached to screws secured in one or more of the wall mount mounting holes, and then secure the wire(s) to the wall behind the TV.
Live programmes are delayed a few seconds to allow the censor time to mute the audio or block the picture in some cases.

Which 3D LED TV is the best bet for Wii sports games?
You should know there aren't any sports games on Wii that are 3D ready yet, BUT>>> TVs with Cinema 3D have a 2D to 3D conversion feature that allows you to render anything in 2D into 3D and I've heard it looks pretty good. Make sure though when you purchase a TV to get a passive 3D TV if you're going to play sports games. You're going to need a lot of head movement and wide viewing angles while you're playing.
