BV7-40 markIII - Not satisfied with the picture when looking at bluray movies

32 replies

Hi, I have a brand new BV7-40 Mark III (Full-HD). I have bought a Panasonic BMP-BD10A blu-ray player. When I look at blu-ray movies at 1080p (full-HD picture) the camera-movements i sometimes a bit jerky. I have tried other blu-ray players with the same result. When I look at DVD movies, the movements i soft and very good. Mayby the pictureprocessor in the BV7 is not sufficient. Has anybody experienced this problem when looking at bluray movies?

 Regards
Martin

Have used bluray on BV 7-32 and no issues. I haven't been blown away by picture quality but I think this is more a function of the screen size (or lack thereof).

 Re jerky movement I haven't noticed this. I have however seen comment in the press re some of the newer LCD panels and the fact that they remove this. I think therefore this is possibly a function of the fact that the technology has moved on from that incorporated by B&O in the new BV 7-40 and - as a wider comment - that B&O are struggling to keep up with technology which is moving too fast for the smaller specialist companies.

 

"Make certain it's the TV doing the processing, and not your player. Either have the player send raw unprocessed, or let the TV accept the already processed image without additional work. That might help?

This means you have to look at what the TV is set for, when it comes to the signal it gets from your Blu-ray"

My question is then: How do I check the TV how it processes the incoming signal from the Bluray player? Should I go to the "customer menu" or the "service menu"?

 

Is the new BV7 100Hz? Certainly our Loewe 100 Hz sets have a conflict issue with DMM which is a technology to improve movement blurring on non 100Hz sets, we have to turn off the DMM to get a perfect blu ray picture on our new player, However I dont know if The B&o has this option or not. It does however sound like a similar symptom and once sorted the picture is perfect.

Hope that helps

Hi Dave. What is DMM?

it stands for Dynamic Motion .................... Actually I dont know what the last M is for, anyway its a picture improvement tech that actually does help flat screens with movement, however with the new 100Hz models its not needed and the TV in a way over compensates.

Anyway I hope that helps.
