Sony KDL-40w2000u 24 frames/sec compatibility

Hot Dogg · 31-07-2007, 11:58

Don't know if we have any Sony service/sales guys out there for a technical query?

Thinking of finally getting a Blu Ray player to complement my Sony screen. The new Panasonic Blu Ray player outputs films at 24 frames/sec which is the movie standard. Does the Sony KDL-40w2000u lcd screen support this ?
Tried various parts of the Sony online site but info is rarer than rocking horse droppings!

You're looking for a VERY obscure specification, which isn't mentioned at all in either the specs for the set or the service manual.

Presumably you simply plug the HDMI lead in and it works?, it would be folly for Panasonic to release a DVD player that only worked on a small number of sets.

No, but the 40D3000 does.

Thanks Nigel,
I'd come to pretty much the same conclusion myself after trolling through the manuals but another opinion is always useful.

Actually it isn't folly because players which support 1080p24 also support 1080p60.

That's why I said 'only'
