I had a question concerning older systems, I’m aware that just plugging in the component cables is just asking for lag but what if you were to hook in a PC and use emulation?
Emulators like ZSNES and ePSXe have very good scaling options and can do HD perfectly.
PCSX2 is coming along but it’s still far from maturity.
Eh.
I guess I’ve little choice, these days.
I’m going to go with a TC-L37X1, and just be glad that it is an IPS, if not an Alpha IPS.
It isn’t like there is anything better on the market.
EDIT: it’s funny, A LOT of the sites featuring it specify it as being an Alpha IPS… including an AVForum thread or two.

Fuck it.
$old.
RE-EDIT:
Aaaaand Panny themselves state that it is an IPS, yet not Alpha.
On the phone…
…and yet, after having the rep check it twice, Panasonic assures me that the X2s ARE, in fact, Alpha panels.
And yet all I’ve heard about X2s is they are balls.
So.much.confusion.
As I see it.
Couple more notes about the XL2410T and W2442PA
While the black level is good on the XL2410T, there’s some really bad black crush going on. Unless you can take advantage of the 120hz or want the 3D I would look elsewhere. I’ve been using the LG W2442PA and its input lag is equal to the BenQ, that is essentially nonexistant. This review shows an average input lag of 3.2ms, with 16ms being the max and most of the time 0 lag at all. It sells for around $250 new, so not expensive at all, has adjustable height (which for some reason consumer monitors don’t have anymore) and doesn’t have a stupid glossy body.
SO THEN.
…the 2011 Panasonics are out.
TC-L32C3 - 720, 32 incher, with an Alpha IPS.
It seems they understood.
$399
I’m heading out the door now, to go get it.
:bgrin:
I’ll post thoughts on it, later today!
As I see it.
I’m thinking of picking this one up too! Looks like they changed the backlighting system from EEFL to LED? Hope it’s a keeper! 
Really? It can do it perfectly? Do you know which can and which can’t? More specifically can Dolphin?
Hi
Just need to ask you guys something.
If I use a hdmi splitter (1 input/2outputs) will this affect input lag?
I’ll be running my Asus 24" Evo Like monitor with my 32" Sony bravia TV.
So I’ll have both running together at once. Sick!
Anyways do you guys think that the input lag will be visible between the asus and Sony?
Is this a good way to test input lag as well?
Thanks
Lets see some input lag tests!
That tv has a res of 1366x768. Isn’t 1280x720 true 720p res meaning that your TV will have to scale which will add lag?
Hoping not because that TV has a nice price.
I checked Best Buy to see if they have them locally and they do. They are even cheaper than their X2’s. The only weird thing is that the TC-L32C3 model is not in the Panasonic US site, although I have seen the press release about it being a March 2011 release and having an IPS Alpha panel like the coveted X1. I might consider selling my X24 (Costco’s version of the X2) if this indeed turns out to be a better, if not the TV to get for vewlix clones. Maybe if someone here who has an AVS forums account can or get someone to do some lag tests on it?
Edit - It seems that all of them are IPS Alpha sets. There’s a TC-L32X30 model that is hopefully the better successor. Not really sure what the big difference between the C and X models other than the obvious Ipod connectivity on the X’s.
I’d really like to see the follow up to this. How’s the input lag on this set?
Sounds promising, I’m looking forward to the results!
Here’s hoping it’s as good as the TC-L32X1.
It mentions a couple of easy methods of testing input lag in the 1st page Guitar Hero 2 and Rock Band 2. Do you need the extra peripherals for testing on Rock Band 2? Are there other easy and reasonably reliable methods for testing nowadays?
I’m finally gonna upgrade from my CRT which has been discarded and choosing something to fit all my needs has been a bit of a nightmare. Low input lag with good motion handling and Freeview HD doesn’t seem to exist outside of Panasonic’s top end 3d plasma VT20 which is too big and expensive for me. I’m gonna go with Samsung’s LE32C530 for now as it’s been mentioned in at least 2 reviews to have low input lag (14ms apparently). It’s lacking in other areas but is cheap enough to go with as a stop gap untill better is released.
I’d be interested to see if there is a way to test this using a computer instead of a console.
Sooooooo, any word on the TC-L32C3?
Does anyone a lg W2363V? trying to know how the input lag is on it… everyone seems to say different .
Thanks
I purchased the TC-L32C3 last week at bestbuy using paypal and instore pick up. They ended up making a mistake and gave me a TC-L32E3 instead, which is the led version. I would like to test the input lag on this set. How do I go about doing that? Thanks
