    I think mine actually has a fault, its got bleeds all the way through the screen and its very noticeable when watching sport or moving scenes, do i have any chance of swapping it for another or likely that they are all sold out ?

    • oaks101 on 26/12/2016 - 21:12

      link to screen bleeds

      • crunch on 26/12/2016 - 22:48

        That looks like dirty screen effect, something common with LED TVs especially lower end ones. Have a read of this http://www.rtings.com/tv/tests/picture-quality/gray-uniformi…

        Exchange/refund if it bothers you a lot, but keep in mind the replacement you get or another TV you buy at this price range may well have the same issue. I know the Bauhn 65 inch which presumably came from the same factory had this exact problem on some of its panels.

        • oaks101 on 27/12/2016 - 00:58

          nah its not that, its defintely lines across the screen, i wouldnt mind if that were the problem. i even tested to see if a person who has no idea about tvs could tell and they picked it up straight away. :/

    Anyone know of stores definitely sold out (or that might still have one)?

  • bbxpxp2 on 26/12/2016 - 22:48

    Picked one up from Cairns BigW this morning. Everything is good, but found one issue - its HDMI connection is not stable and steady on HDMI port 2. It conpletely loses HDMI connection for less than a second and back to normal, also, it occasionally loses sound input, while video is fine. Reckon I picked up the faulty one. I know that TV's sold out and it may not possible to claim for a replacement but just refund? I'll keep post how it goes..

    Has anyone tried to google the TV model and come up with nothing? I even tried the JVC Aust and JVC HK webpages…

    Just wanted to know what the refresh rate is on non-4K resolution (sorry, a bit of a noob on tvs).

    I bought a Sony 8 mths ago with 50hz refresh rate as a temp tv interstate and it was annoying (coming from a 100hz LG tv).

  • Tasmaniac on 27/12/2016 - 09:26

    Is this a better deal than the 55" from big w posted last week ?.

    • [Deactivated] on 27/12/2016 - 09:52

      Price wise yes, 48 inch verse 55 is really nitpicking for size
      Quality and build wise its EXACTLY the same unit as the 499 48 inch Bauhn dumb TV sold a month ago, I would say its the same Samsung Panel / System Software / Service Mode with a JVC label slapped on it / different boot logo pattern.

      • Tasmaniac on 27/12/2016 - 10:11

          Supply vs Demand, UHD is at that mainstream price point, everyone wants to jump on board, Samsung probably have a warehouse full of B grade panels, Bauhn, JVC and the cheapie brands all buy them and pump out the units one by one to you and me, Getting a good one is a lottery but when you do its well worth the cost savings.

    Hi everyone, just bought this TV yesterday. does anyone know how to auto tune channels. also how to play low resolution videos like 720p or 1080p. 720p videos looks ugly on this tv.

    • [Deactivated] on 27/12/2016 - 10:00
      +1

      I really don't think for 328.30 you're going to get 720p scaled up anywhere near as good as a 3000 tv

      720p is a pathetic resolution to begin with, 1080p and 4k off youtube look perfectly fine

      Poo in = Poo out, I would try and get better resolution videos if you can.

      Scaling to 48 inch from a horrendously low bitrate and most likely compressed 720p file won't do it any favours, I doubt even the best tv can scale that.

          @sini:

          Sorry if I come across rude its just basic common sense with most electronics to read and understand the manual concepts

          You will need an antenna, you won't get tv signal without it, if you are renting speak to your landlord or realestate to find out where the point is, or possibly buy an indoor antenna (signal may be worse than outdoor)

        • sini on 27/12/2016 - 10:46

          @shawncro 222: Not at all..Got It..i thought it would work with any inbuilt antenna.. will check it out..thanks for the help

        • [Deactivated] on 27/12/2016 - 10:48

          @sini:

          All good no problems, inbuilt tuner means it will pickup TV but will need a source antenna to actually get signals to the TV

          Depending on how close you are to the tower will dictate how easy you can get away with an indoor unit

      • compugrid on 27/12/2016 - 21:35

        I actually get better picture using cyberlink PowerDVD player on pc and using TV as a monitor. It scales perfectly low resolution to something watchable in good quality. including this tv, which that I just connected to my PC. VLC and some other players have up-scaling features , but they more complicated to adjust. PowerDVD does it automatically and user friendly with the up-scaling. Used to use VGA , which worked exactly as PC monitor with my 50' FHD Changhong. With HDMIs i am still playing to adjust to my preferences. I have problem connecting this JVC and my Onkyo receiver. The TV doesn't by pass the Digital Dolby sound from the source (GPU). The HD 1080P movies played on PC do not by pass the sound Dig Dolby sound either. I am getting 2 channels audio only and then I use Receiver to convert it to Prologic IIx. Connecting receiver directly to my 1070 GPU (as it was before with the FHD TV ) cuts off the 4K resolution or / and TV doesn't work in 4K, even tho my receiver has got 4k up-scaling feature and thru resolution option. So far I have found 1 dead pixel in this JVC. I read a few posts about dead pixels above. hence the sale, IMO.

        • [Deactivated] on 27/12/2016 - 22:58

          I have had no dead pixels or issues with sound quality on my set
          Ensure you set the Optical to Auto as it is on PCM by default

    This is a nice deal, if I didn't get my 48" Sony from the good guys did 2 years ago I'd be buying this.
    But can't justify the purchase to replace a my sony though, not enough content is 4k yet apart from Netflix etc that our 5mb/s internet can even stream anyway. Think I'll wait until we get better internet and cheaper technology. 4k TV's will be cheaper still in a year or two, I'm not gonna lose my pants but it's good for people who need to update older TV's..

    • [Deactivated] on 27/12/2016 - 13:18

      its a 48 inch "reasonable" quality 4K tv under 350
      4k is definately worth it for most people now with Xbox One S / PS4 Pro etc
      8bit panel does the job, no HDR but for 330? I can live with that

      It does 4K 4:4:4 @60hz which is important for computers, not many of the big dollar tvs did that back in the day when these cheaper panels come out

      Its a Samsung panel inside, most likely factory second
      If you have a second / spare bedroom, this is a no brainer

      • TeamSAXON on 27/12/2016 - 16:47

        For the content that relies heavily on internet, I can wait. It's amazing value I'm actually wishing I didn't buy my TV but the ability to have the 4k streaming for my home is not there yet in the slightest (our internet speeds are just not up to it). I actually got an xbone S from black Friday which I'd love to use to its full potential but I'm saving for a trip to Japan and that is holding precedence over all of the boxing day sales.
        There's always next year! I have my bedroom but tend to hog the lounge. We only really have the need for dining TV and the Sony in the lounge. It's a great deal honestly..

  • djsa on 27/12/2016 - 13:26

    Trying to decide between this 48 inch tv or the 50 inch Jvc model which is $349 at some stores but is full HD only. I'm looking to use it as an outdoor tv. Can't find much info on the other model online lt-50n550a.

    Would the quality of each model be similar so just deciding between saving $20 for UHD and 2 inches smaller?

    • [Deactivated] on 27/12/2016 - 13:37

      djsa, the panel is a samsung panel in the uhd 4k model
      for 328 its a brilliant investment, its nothing stunning for FTA but any video source, game console has been amazing, I am very happy with my investment for a second TV, 60hz panel, same as the bauhn 48 inch a few weeks ago :)

      its cheap and cheerful but for an outdoor tv, as long as you protect it from the elements you should be okay, I had a soniq on a balcony and it died within 4 months, I reckon heat got to it.

      Threw it out as it was stuffed, it was a second hand one I bought 2 years ago, probably needed a PSU but couldn't be bothered fighting soniq over it so i smashed it up and binned it

    Would JVC 55" FHD smart that was $699 which is now $489.30 a good deal? Thanks in advance.

      I went to the Altona Meadows store and there was a person in front of me that bought the last two units LOL.

      However there was another they try to sell:

      Viano 4K TV 55" for $429.

      Don't know much about it however it did state HDMI 2.0 on the box?

      Anyone Ozbargainers out there purchased one of these?

      Cheers

        I haven't however from memory I think the picture quality on that is terrible. Pretty sure I saw that model being displayed in-store with Finding Nemo or Dory. The blue was over-saturated in my belief and the picture was not sharp. But this from memory.

        Would not be comfortable paying over $400 for it.

        • vinni9284 on 27/12/2016 - 16:23

          Thanks. Yeah, there was a person behind me that seemed disappointed also (that he missed out) and he seemed interested in this model. I just walked out. Lucky I didn't buy it. Cheers

          @vinni9284: having said that pretty sure it was dvd source, as was blocks ad all hell when I saw it. Either way if the upscaling is crap it could still be a crap tv

    my local has polaroid 49 inch, same price, still thinking if i should get it…

    • MaximumEffort777 on 27/12/2016 - 14:57

      Yeah, I heard them tell someone that yesterday. Worth a shot at the price and it has Wi-Fi although I'm not sure how good it would be.

    Just picked one up at Arndale in SA at 2 pm. They still have some 48" left, as well as some 50" for around $360.

    • [Deactivated] on 27/12/2016 - 18:10

      Thanks, will call first thing in the morning!

  • pebee47 on 27/12/2016 - 15:09

    Just got the last one at Canning Vale WA. Was out the back, so you'd have to ask the bloke at the photo desk (no one else around, LoL)
