about the Noir set by FX:
There may be a problem with the encoding of the video on this set. At first when I played any of the discs in my PS2 or Xbox (on a standard TV) I got heavy interlacing effects whenever something moved, making it really unwatchable. However, setting the video output to 16:9 the picture was almost perfect (still some pixelation in fast moving scenes). Of course then I had to set my TV display to widescreen also.
Using PowerDVD on my PC there were also no problems. So I guess for people with a widescreen TV or those watching on PC there are no major problems. The only problem seems to be with watching the set in 4:3 letterboxed on a standard TV, but this may also only happen with crappy players like my PS2.
