Amazon.com Product Description
With its DynaFlat anti-distortion, anti-glare flat picture tube, the 32-inch Samsung TXN3245FP will make movie night a special night indeed. The TXN3245FP offers a full complement of Samsung's advanced digital video features, including 3-line digital comb filter, velocity scan modulation, 3:2 pulldown cinema conversion, and a wide selection of video/audio input connections. Using the SDTV (standard definition television) system, the TXN3245FP can display brilliant, flicker-free progressive digital output in 480p mode (perfect for viewing movies from your progressive scan DVD player.

The TXN3245FP offers Samsung's Digital Pro Picture three-stage video processing system that produces a high performance picture from both analog and digital sources. The Total DSP (Digital Signal Processing) improves analog to digital signal processing, the Pro Chip Plus converts all analog signals to the better flicker-free progressive scan, and the three-line digital comb filter analyzes multiple lines of picture information to minimize edge image artifacts while improving transition detail.

The 3:2 pulldown cinema video processing detects and compensates film--which is shot at 24 frames per second (fps) compared with video's 30 fps rate--to video for a smooth theater-like experience at home. This set also features an Invar shadow mask (an alloy material used to attain better focus and brightness consistency), color temperature controls, and four video presets (standard, dynamic, movie, custom) that optimize the picture for brightness, sharpness, color, and tint.

It has a built-in 181-chanel NTSC tuner that receives MTS and SAP stereo broadcasts. Its built-in speakers have 15 watts of power apiece and it features a headphone jack on the side of the set. Two component-video inputs allow you to connect an optional HDTV receiver or a source with component-video outputs. It also has 4 composite A/V inputs (3 rear, 1 side), 1 A/V output, 1 S-video input (side), and 2 RF inputs (rear).

Tech Talk
Aspect ratio: The aspect ratio refers to the shape of the video image. Standard television has a 4:3 aspect ratio, which is almost square in appearance. Digital television will have either a 4:3 or 16:9 aspect ratio, which is widescreen and appears rectangular, looking more like a movie screen and filling more of the viewer's field of vision for a more lifelike viewing experience.

Scanning method: Frames of video are made up of many lines of video that are scanned onto a television screen so closely they appear to be a solid picture. The scanning method can be either interlaced or progressive. Interlaced scanning (also used in today's analog TV), indicated by an "i" in the video format, fills in the odd number lines (1,3,5,7...) and then fills in the even number lines (2,4,6,8...) until the frame is complete. Progressive scanning, "p," fills in each line consecutively until the frame is complete, like a computer display.

Perfect TV for the price.......2005-03-20

This TV is undoubtedly a "Perfect" one for the price. Crystal clear "digital" picture... no less than HDTV. I've owned this for almost an year and have no issues either with the picture quality or the sound quality.

When I was purchasing this TV, I've compared this with the Sony Analog 32'. This TV has better picture quality because of the fact that this one is a "Digital" TV. You can clearly see the difference. And sound quality is just amazing! You don't need a home theatre, if you tune this TV.

Overall, I am very satisfied with Samsung. I'll recommend this TV to all who have trouble making the decision with Sony analog 32 or any other analog 32' TV. Believe me, you'll not regret.

CRT failure.......2004-08-13

At 7 months the CRT failed on this product, it cost $65.00 to have the authorized dealer tell us that. The solution was a complete replacement of the television and since it is out of warranty, charged another $120.00. After 4 calls to Samsung, I was finally referred to an office to look at my problem. Samsung would not reimburse me for anything. I would not buy Samsung again because of this.

Excellent Value.......2004-01-08

This tv is perfect for the kind of person who doesn't watch a lot of tv but wants to watch dvds and/or play games in 480p (progressive scan). Out of the box the tv needs to be calibrated to look its best (everything is set too high). Once adjustments are made you have a crystal clear digital picture - you just won't believe how good it is for this price. With 2 sets of component video inputs you can easily hook up a digital cable receiver and set it to output in 480p and you've essentially got an hdtv for much less money. Excellent quality. I don't know about the speakers as I use my surround sound system for that. A word of caution though some tvs of this model have poor power supplies but most are fine. If you are getting a poor picture or flicker exchange it for the same model (I had to do this). If you are getting an unbelievable crystal clear picture you've got a good one, don't settle for one of the duds. There's a hidden service menu that lets you adjust the picture quality further and fix geometry.. accessing this menu is a must just search online and you'll find out how.

Good choice at this time. Nov. 2003.......2003-11-29

Very good definition. A good alternative to the higher price HD offerings. If you need a TV now this is a good choice. I am going to wait until the dust settles to buy the HD or Plasma.

Awesome picture for the price -- after adjustments.......2003-09-24

This has to be the best deal currently going on ED/HDTV. I've had this set for almost two months and I love it. Out of the box, you might be unhappy with it, but if you search online, you'll find a message board full of good instructions on how to make the proper adjustments from within the service menu -- including a few settings that give the TV video/audio abilities it's not advertised to have. Get a calibration disc such as Video Essentials to help you make the adjustments. The 480p image, straight up from DVDs or digitally enhanced over-the-air, is gorgeous, with incredible clarity for a non-HD picture.
