I honestly can't remember how I got them to work. I think there is an option in the Optoma menus that state what mode of 3D to use. I happened to find DLP Link was one of the options, but this was after about an hour of messing around with it. To be completely honest I sent these glasses back because of the comfort issue. I ended up going with a model from Quantum. Much more comfortable, and I don't feel like I'm looking under them. Once you get the projector set up properly you won't need to mess with it anymore. 2D movies will play normally and it will automatically go back to DLP Link when it detects a 3D signal. After you get the projector into DLP Link mode, keep in mind there is an 'invert mode' some movies you may need to press the power button once or twice to flip between modes, otherwise the picture looks funny. I can't explain it, but you will probably recognize it when you see it. It's like instead of projecting out towards you it's projecting in away from you. Good luck getting it set up. Again it took me awhile to figure it out, but hopefully you will have better luck.

I cannot speak to the difference as I have the 612 model. I love it and have no complaints about it whatsoever. I highly recommend it. Sorry I cannot speak to the difference for you

I watched the 554sv from every angle at Costco. The reflection of the overhead lights was crystal clear on this unit (as were most of the other 55" lcds) - i.e. very reflective. The 553 was slightly more matte finish so somewhat more "blurry" reflection of the overhead lights. The only one that was really matte (including Sony and Samsung as well) was the cheapest Vizio (can't recall the model number but was sub $1000 price) but it's over all picture was pixelized on motion so unacceptable to me. I'm still looking.

I agree. in the store the LED versions were not as crisp/bright and the colors were goofy. This was the same in 2 Best Buy stores and Circuit City stores. I currently have the bulb model but am experiencing noise from the color wheel. This would not happen with the LED version. I called Samsung to see if they planned on releasing a new 56 in LED and the girl was clueless, yawned on the phone and was of no help. I emailed Samsung and no response. I am not very impressed with that co so far.

BTW...yesterday I was in BB and Sony has just released a 32" XBR9 1080p with 120hz Motionflow technology... and it is up on the Sony Style website.. so much for what the salesman tell you that Sony is not going to produce..But compared to the Sony 32" 1080p 60 hz.. I thought the higher priced model with 120hz looked grainy to me. I really didn't see the $200 difference in the (retail price). Perhaps on Blu Ray disc viewing there is a difference.. GLTA

Yes, the new 6 and 7 series (coming out in March) has an improved less reflective screen, improved 120hz automotion, a faster 4ms lcd panel, higher 30,000:1 contrast ratio and thumbwheel remote. Was going to make the move right now on the LNT5271 (and a matching stand) but Amazon's recent price increase to $2799 is over $300 more now than other very highly rated online suppliers (including shipping too), so I'll wait it out and might even just get the new 6 series. Even my local Best Buy retail store (who is usually high priced) is now at $2699 with their 10% off which is even less than the new Amazon price. I love Amazon but their recent huge price increase is a little too insane for my pocketbook.

I'm going to look at getting an optical cable. thanks. I read some reviews on the Atdec TH-WH-PJ-FM Telehook Universal Projector Flush Mount that say its not compatible with the optoma hd20. Those can be found at this link. Top 2 reviews ones from a mechanical engineer. http://www.amazon.com/Atdec-TH-WH-PJ-FM-Telehook-Universal-Projector/product-reviews/B000BSFY48/ref=cm_cr_pr_hist_2?ie=UTF8&showViewpoints;=0&filterBy;=addTwoStarI did not read all the reviews so someone might of hooked up the hd20 to this mount successfully. If you remember let me know if the mount works well and I might order it. I'm going to look at getting an optical cable. thanks.

They are both lumped under the same listing .... in turn reviews will be for both the 66 and 68. Just look for the BOLDER Black review that says "this review is from" above each review. Sucks to have kinda skim through but no biggie.

I did a search at Amazon for the 44302-B and it appears to be a new model listed for $105.09!! As opposed to $40 for the other one. Not a lot of details,though. Look at the Celestron web site.

These TV's are WAY overpriced by this seller @ 1000 clams. The same people had it for under 600 a month or 2 ago. It wouldn't suprise me that they are discontinued from Visio. They haven't had any on their website available for quite some time. (at $659) Usually means something is up. Look around or buy something else from someone else !! I'm not a corporate ceo with millions, I'm in the 99% . . . . I need reasonable pricing in order to spend hard earned cash.

I just bought and returned mine. I got a 350 dollar ticket here in the US with it operating! I wouldn't trust this "new" model ANYWHERE. People may lie the new look or fancy lights, but until you have actually SEEN it protect you, or fail, it is all speculation. It failed.

I was told by a sales person at a "big box" store that they are the same, that different retailers use slightly different model numbers. My advice is to write down the the tech specs such as dpi, hz, etc., (and watch for different wording like "Clear Motion Rate" is not the same as "refresh rate") and then compare the different models that way.

I am sorry you are having problems. I also ordered this projector, but promptly sent it back as I was dissatisfied with it. I recommend you do the same. I ordered a different model and am very happy with it. I use it for Keynote presentations as well as showing movies. I could never have done that with this model you have. I then ordered the Optoma W303, yes, more expensive, but IMHO well worth it. As they say, "you get what you pay for, if you don't pay much, you don't get much".

If this is the ASUS in Best Buy this week for $799 (down from $999), I noticed the same dim-ness. I checked floor models at two Best Buys today, because everything else about the laptop is perfect for me, but both screens were dim. The salesmen said it was on maximum brightness. Photos taken in bright sunshine looked dull. It's a crisp monitor but dark. The $599 model actually has better brightness than this Zenbook. Steve 12/14/13

I also own both and I like them equally. Whichever was the cheaper, I'd buy that one. Although I do like the more matte screen surface of the 226BW.PS: It is tricky (and extremely important) to get the contrast/brightness set juuuuust right.

I just took delivery on one from Amazon, a BRV46 and in any picture mode it looks like I am watching throw a window screen. I am not sure if this is the vaunted "mura" or "clouding issue". But I am not happy.My house is a little cold today, which could be a factor. But I must just return it and swap in a Panasonic plasma for about 1/3 the price.
