Product Description

The 49" 16:9 HDTV Monitor Rear Projection Television features HD Grade Optics improving brightness and focus, and reducing overall cabinet depth. Improved CRTs maximize brightness and picture detail. Specifically developed for digital program content. HD Focus automatic system eliminates the need to manually adjust the picture. Simply select HD focus from the onscreen set-up menu, and 16 sensors automatically adjust the picture from center to edge in ten seconds. Most HDTVs use upconversion of analog signals (line-doubling) to simulate an HD picture, which introduces artifacts that appear as pixilated scenes due to digital conversion. Using this TV's advanced digital display, these picture artifacts are nearly eliminated. This TV is equipped with built-in rear carrying handles to easily move from room to room.

Amazon.com Product Description

The R49W36's vivid, 49-inch widescreen (16:9) display makes your movies and TV programs larger than life, bringing a world of entertainment to your doorstep, from full HDTV resolution (with optional DTV receiver) to enhanced standard-definition (SD) viewing. The rear-projection Zenith offers a host of picture-enhancing technologies, upconverting interlaced (480i composite- and S-video) signals to bring VCRs, non-progressive DVD players, cable boxes, and other entertainment devices up to 1080i or 540p resolution. The set accepts, and renders at full resolution, decoded 1080i or 480p video signals from DTV set-top boxes or progressive-scan DVD players and satellite receivers.

Progressive scanning, referred to as 480p or 540p for the number of horizontal lines that compose the video image, creates a picture using twice the scan lines of a conventional DVD picture, giving you higher resolution and sharper images while eliminating nearly all motion artifacts. The R49W36 also performs 3:2 pulldown. DVD mastering introduces a common distortion when adjusting 24 frames-per-second movies to 30 fps video; Zenith's 3:2 Pulldown Cinema Correction digitally corrects this distortion, removing the redundant information to display a film-frame-accurate picture.

The set's HD-grade optics improve brightness and focus and reduce the cabinet depth to a manageable 19.2 inches. HD Focus eliminates the need to manually adjust the picture--just select HD Focus from the onscreen menu, and to automatically adjust the picture from center to edge. Specifically developed for digital program content, the R49W36's HD-grade, high-output CRTs maximize brightness and picture detail. Further, the unit's improved digital display eliminates most of the standard video artifacts that afflict typical analog upconversion, or line doubling (such as pixelization).

Velocity-scan modulation improves the definition at picture edges, creating sharper images by slowing the CRT (cathode-ray tube) beam's horizontal scanning during demanding work--say, when rendering transitions from light to dark parts of an image--and speeding it up when scanning easily rendered sections, like broad dark areas. Three selectable velocity-scan modulation and fine (0.52 mm) dot pitch ensure a detailed picture.

Two-tuner, split-screen PIP (picture-in-picture) with 4-picture POP (picture-outside-picture) lets you watch a second channel in the PIP inset screen while watching the main channel on the full screen, all without having to use any outside tuner source, such as a VCR, etc.

A pair of 1080i-capable component-video inputs grants optimum connection with high-definition devices, while standard composite- and S-video inputs accommodate all DVD players and most other video devices. (For older VCRs and cable boxes, there's also 2 threaded RF inputs and 1 RF output.) A set of variable-level AV outputs lets you hook the set up with your audio/video receiver, while side-panel AV inputs makes it easy to plug in a camcorder, digital camera, or gaming console for spontaneous use.

You get stereo audio (with an impressive 15 watts per channel from AV sources or broadcast programming via Multi-channel Television Sound (MTS), which permits broadcasters to encode stereo audio within the video portion of TV programming signals. Not equipped with a surround receiver? Built-in Dolby Virtual Surround simulates enveloping surround sound from the set's 2 speakers or, when hooked up, from your stereo system.

The set also features a high-contrast protective shield, detail enhancement, gamma correction, auto flesh-tone adjustment, built-in rear carrying handles (making it a cinch to move), auto volume limiter, auto channel programming, bass/treble/balance controls, 6 DSP sound fields, a trilingual onscreen display (English, Spanish, French), closed-caption display, 2-level mute, V-Chip parental control, a sleep timer, an on-timer, and an illuminated universal remote control.

What's in the Box
TV, remote control, remote batteries, TV cabinet with casters, and a user's manual.

1 out of 5 stars It's great til it breaks!!!.......2007-02-20

We bought this set 3 years ago and never had a complaint . . . until it blew a tube. In fact, there are 3 tubes in this . . . blue, green and red. If the green and red blow out . . . you might be safe . . . at least as of 2.15.07, the last time I spoke with the company (Zenith). Unfortunately for us, the blue picture tube went out . . . and after waiting for nearly 2 months for word of "backordered parts" (that's no fault of Zenith . . . our fault for picking the unmotivated "rich"repair person . . . who evidently does NOT need the money) we were advised after twice calling Zenith ourselves, that the blue picture tube is "obsolete" and no longer available AND the grand prize is . . . there is NOTHING else to substitute this! So, in essence, our three year old TV is beyond repair. The finishing touch? Unless you produce an actual receipt . . . you will not receive a replacement set. This is the final thrust. A cancelled check and a life sized photo of the actual set sitting in your actual house does not count as actual possession. So, hang on to your receipts and pray that the blue tube doesn't blow out. As for me and mine . . . this is where we part company with Zenith . . . forever. Toshiba . . . here we come . . . .

This unit is not only a great looking HDTV but the features are great. The HD Digital Auto Convergence is easy to use and saves the time of manually trying to set it. PIP has great options, the Aspect ratio options a also great. The menu and remote are very intuative to a beginner. Overall great product!!!

1 out of 5 stars piece of junk.......2003-09-26

It is a piece of junk, not only ugly in appearance, but the picture quality is worse than our 20 year old 27 inch model. My wife and I would love to throw it out, but since we just bought it, we are stuck with it for awhile. We have been letting it sit while we go to watch the older,smaller model. If anyone wants a good deal, please let me know by e-mail @ hutchgolfs@aol.com.

5 out of 5 stars An excellent device.......2004-08-10

I use the 'Firewire/USB2' version of this DVD-RW and I am absolutely satisfied with the performance and the features of this writer. I use it on both, a Mac (under OS X with firewire) and PC (under Windows XP with USB2) and it works flawless. This is truely 'plug and play'. The writing speeds are excellent and I have not burned any 'coasters' so far. It supports all DVD and CD medias and the DVDs (DVD+R and DVD-R) play on all of my DVD players. The picture quality is excellent. The bundled software is very good as well, for Apple (Toast 6.0 lite) and for PC (Roxia software bundle).
This drive comes also with some excellent Plextor tools (e.g. overburning of CDs, error diagnostics and my favorite, drag and drop to disk which makes moving files to and from a DVD very easy).

      5 out of 5 stars Picture is wrong, but drive is R*i*G*H*T.......2005-03-17

      Excellent drive, can be had at a good price these days. I've used Plextor for years, and have NEVER been disapointed. They make a very high quality product, i.e. no installation or driver errors, and the hardware lasts longer than the PC you'll install it into.

      5 out of 5 stars Outstanding DVD burner..........2005-03-08

      I recently acquired this drive because another family member wanted a DVD-burner of her own. I handed down my PX-508AU and bought this replacement drive. Externally, except for the product number of the front, this drive is indistinguishable from the older unit. It plugged right into the same slot and I was burning DVDs in just a few minutes.

      Unlike another reviewer, my drive did not come with Nero: it came with Roxio software, which is junk. You'll want to get Nero or another product in order to live through the experience of actually burning a DVD drive if yours doesn't come with it.

      The drive is, well, slick. My old drive only accepted DVD+R media. This drive recognizes DVD-R media too. It burns reliably at more than twice the speed of my old 4X unit and I haven't produced a coaster (a DVD that fails to record properly) yet. Since I never produced one with the other drive... I have high expectations for this drive.

      If you're in the market for a DVD writer, you can't go wrong with Plextor. You might want to look into the new dual-layer format drives which are just coming out as I write this, but for most uses (other than copying dual layer movies), this drive is fabulous and nearly perfect.

      5 out of 5 stars The Best Kept Burning Secret.......2005-03-03

      Wait. Do not buy this if you want to have perfect DVD copies of movies. If you want that then get the Sony DRX-700UL Double Layer FireWire/USB 2.0 External DVD±RW Drive. That drive allows you to perfectly copy what is called DVD9. DVD9 is what Hollywood uses to make those discs. In the burning world we have DVD-R + R media called DVD5. DVD 5 is around the half the size of a DVD9. This means that when you backup your movies to DVD-R, you need to compress with programs like DVDshrink in conjunction with Nero Burning Rom. Most films can be compressed or DVDs stripped to produce 80% to 100% quality viewing. However on some films they are so big and fast that sometimes the compression can be down as low as 60%. Now 60% compression with DVD Mpeg is not bad but 80% is quite acceptable and 99% of films work great on standard DVD-R. So burning with this hardware is no problem - quality movies is the end result, but if you want pure 100% quality, then be prepared to pay for it with Double Layer technology. Check out the price of the Sony and then check out the prices of the Double Layer DVD Discs. Haha - as you can see the Discs are the catch because they cost a bomb - but anyway you have a right to know that this technology exists and also that it is easier to use (Direct copy; no compression).

      Nero Burning Rom comes bundled with this package nd is 99.9% effective but has a tendency to corrupt now again simply because it has a vast configuration system. Nero is a core burning tool. This means that several backup packages out there will actually find Nero on install and use it for burning. One example is DVDshrink that runs Nero in the background while backing up DVD movies on DVD-R. I/O errors with these programs, including DVD Decrypter, are usually the result of a configuration problem with Nero. One example is updating your Plextor firmware. Sometimes this requires you to reinstall Nero. This problem however is the only bug I have found with Nero. Just on the side - I highly recommend Imation, Memorex or Verbatim as relatively cheap good second class media (80% or higher burn success rate). DVD is still in its early days of development and some media is garbage so don't blame Nero or the Plextor if you make coasters (half burned DVD-R Discs that are useless to you) with this software. I also recommend a healthy supply of at least 3 DVD-RW Discs for TESTING your burning so that you NEVER make a coaster and waste money. Okay, now back to Nero. Nero is the most configurable burning tool out there while Nero Express is for those who do not know a thing about burning and works like a Wizard. A word of advice is to stick with the Rom and learn it without using the Wizard. You can choose from burning 12 CD formats and 6 DVD formats, including several variations of each format. There is not a Disc format you can not Burn with this program. The Plextor burners have great hardware based error correction systems and in conjunction with the Nero software make a perfect burn almost every time. Nero also happens to be extremely fast, if not the fastest out there, however fast is also in terms of how fast your burner is, but the software package requires little to no processing before a 8GB DVD is being pulled onto your HD. You can create ISOs with Nero and even use Nero to open up ISOs so you can read the content. There is an amazing amount of free software out there that uses this burner as their base and rightly so. It is the best burning software out there at this time of writing. Also the hardware comes bundled with Pinnacle Systems Media Studio 8 (a full DVD authoring program).

      Now to the hardware itself. A USB2 connection at the back means top seed copying to and from the HD. There is a firewire connection if you want to use it and also audio out with volume control. What makes this DVD+-R X 12 (with RW and CD burning capability) speed burner so good is that it is light and yet built like a rock. You can take this anywhere with you although it is about 3/5th smaller than a PS2 so a nice little backpack is ideal for transport. Its error correcting is by far the best out there and I have burned maybe 800+ DVDs without any problems with it today except for bad media.

      Pros:

      - Take it anywhere.
      - Best DVD5 burner out there.
      - Not very noisy.
      - Nice software bundle.

      Cons:

      - Price.
      - Bit big.

          5 out of 5 stars Great stuff.......2007-06-13

          The adapter is great. I have had it for two years and it has been working nice and smooth. Good reception, easy instalation.

          5 out of 5 stars Great Value.......2006-02-24

          I bought this item at Compusa for $29.99. I use it with my laptop on a USB 1.1 port. My old Belkin B/G card only received 1 weak signal at my location. The Zyxel adapter receives SEVEN signals at the same location. I decided not to use the install software which came with it. When XP discovered my new hadware, I inserted the Zyxel install CD and searched for the driver. 30 seconds later the adapter was ready to go and receiving signals. I am very happy with this device. USB 1.1 versus 2.0 does not appear to make any difference in the data speed.

          4 out of 5 stars A little complex to install but works well.......2006-01-19

          As stated in the above review there is some complexity in the software (it does not want to use Windows for the configuration) but the quality of the manufacturer is proven (Funk is a industry leader). Plus this adapter supports both WPA and WPA2. I am running this on Windows XP (not Windows 98) and I did go out and download the latest software from the Zyxel Site. That pretty much did the trick and adapter is working great.

          While the device itself seems to work okay, the Odessy software that's required to enable WPA security is complete rubbish. It basically wouldn't work at all on Win98, and although it worked for a while on Win2000, it would eventually give an "Adaptor not licensed" error after a couple sessions, and I'd have to re-boot the computer.

          Bottom line.... until this company figures out how to integrate its hardware and software to work together, I recommend going with a namebrand product like NetGear.
