Digital Life TV (DL.TV) Episode 157

I've never posted a link to DL.TV, and that's really my fault so I apologize. I should show my loyalty considering I used to watch this often. The show features Patrick Norton, from the old Tech-TV glory days, and they often feature home theater programming. To those unaware, DL.TV is a twice-a-week vidcast where they go over hardware & news from the week. Well this week they do cover HDTV's, so I feel it's worthy of a mention.

HDTV for gaming: Brian wanted to know what HDTV technology was best for gaming. He specifically mentioned two things, ghosting and latency. The ghosting should no longer be an issue with today's HDTVs but plasma offers the best speed while LCD offers simple and roboust panel. As for latency that's a function of processing done by the TV which could add as much as a second from the time you move the controller to something happening on the screen. Most newer HDTVs should offer some sort of game mode that turns off most but not all the processing.
