Product Description
Score Big with Toshiba New Talen DLP(TM) Light Engine with IDEAL (Intelligent Dynamic Algorithms and Lens control) ATSC/QAM Tuners enable the set to receive digital cable-in the-clear signals, as well as digital terrestrial broadcasts. CableCARD(TM) allows for the reception of all applicable digital cable channels without the need of a cable box. This card is supplied by the local Cable MSO. PixelPure(TM) is a suite of 8 different digital video processing circuits that combine to create a consistently clearer, deeper and more accurate picture. PixelPure(TM) is the key to Toshiba's fixed pixel picture quality; it is the processing that makes the picture. OmniViewer(TM) Memory Card Slots accommodate 5 different types of memory cards (SD, MM, MS, CF, SM) and includes a JPEG Viewer program that allows the TV to display pictures from most digital cameras.

Amazon.com Product Description
Get the sharpest and clearest images possible from both HD and standard television programming and your favorite DVD movies with the technologically advanced 62-inch Toshiba 62HM95 DLP projection TV. Vivid imagery and vibrant colors will pop off the screen, thanks to the integrated Texas Instruments' HD2+ chip, which enables a much higher contrast ratio along with a more consistent picture than other DLP chips due to filled-in mirror "vias" in the center of each pixel. This set has a built-in analog/digital/digital cable tuners (NTSC/ATSC/QAM) that will receive free over-the-air HDTV signals (ATSC) and HDTV signals from a cable connection (QAM). It's also Digital Cable Ready (via the CableCard slot), so you can enjoy digital cable without an additional box or remote using an optional CableCard. It also comes with TV Guide On Screen and Toshiba's innovative Channel Browser "back" button feature--similar to a PC browser back button--that allows easy access to recently viewed channels.

DLP (which stands for Digital Light Processing) uses an optical semiconductor to recreate source material with a fidelity analog systems can't match. While other technologies lose a certain amount of light in transit, the microscopic mirrors in a DLP projection system bring more light from lamp to screen. It also features better color uniformity over time--no burn-in, screen aging or color-shifting possible. It's the leading display technology for products like small portable conference room projectors and professional venue entertainment systems.

The technology at the center of the 62HM95 is the new Toshiba Digital Light Engine named Talen X, which utilizes Texas Instruments' xHD4 chip, advanced optics, and Toshiba's DEEP Picture and Xtreme BLAC technologies to provide high resolution with improved brightness and contrast. It also includes the new PixelPure AT Digital Video Processing, utilizing new Adaptive Technology to create further improved picture quality, the new Radiance 150 Hi-Bright Lamp for noticeably brighter images and a TheaterFine DFP Screen with anti-glare coating that results in increased detail and noticeably deeper blacks.

The PixelPure AT digital video processor offers motion adaptive de-interlacing, adaptive MPEG processing, and adaptive contrast and color enhancement for a consistently high picture quality. The 3D Y/C digital comb filter (4 MB, 10-Bit) constantly analyzes the three dimensions of picture height, picture width, and picture changes-over-time, to reduce dramatically edge image artifacts while improving transition detail.

The TheaterNet Control System simplifies the control of external components through both an IR jack and Firewire (IEEE1394) port, the latter of which can be used to transmit digital video and audio and allow for recording of HDTV. This set also includes a built-in OmniViewer memory card slot, which is compatible with a wide variety of popular formats--Secure Digital (SD), MultiMedia (MMC), Memory Stick, Compact Flash, and Smart Media--enabling you to view photo slideshows directly from your digital camera's memory card.

Perfect for viewing high-definition content and your favorite widescreen movies, this set offers a 16:9 aspect ratio and 1280 x 720-pixel resolution. Other features include both picture-in-picture (PIP) and picture-on-picture (POP) capabilities, tri-lingual on-screen menus (English, French, Spanish), channel labeling, channel return, channel browse, favorite channel, and V-Chip parental controls.

The 40-watt stereo audio system (two 20-watt speakers) delivers ample sound for sports and movies. It features the following video and audio connections:

  • Composite AV (RCA) In: 2
  • S-Video In: 2
  • Component Video In (Y PB PR): 2
  • HDMI In: 1
  • RF In: 2
  • Firewire: 2
  • Digital Coaxial Audio Out: 1

Tech Talk
HDMI -- HDMI makes an uncompressed digital RGB connection from the source to the screen. By eliminating conversion to an analog signal, it delivers an unblemished image. The non-degraded signal reduces flicker and leads to a clearer picture. HDMI intelligently communicates the highest output resolution with the source device. The HDMI input is fully backward compatible with DVI sources but includes digital audio. HDMI uses HDCP copy protection.

5 out of 5 stars Mine Works Great!!   February 18, 2010
P. Mullarkey
I have had this TV since December 2006. I have watched a lot of TV and played a lot of 360 on this TV and I have never had an issue. I have never burnt out a bulb or experienced any issues that the occasional reset can't fix. I have moved twice since owning this TV (once over 6 hours away) and everytime I moved into my new place and plugged in this TV, it worked liked it had never been moved! Obviously the sound sucks but if you buy a TV this big and are not using a surround sound system then you're crazy. The HD is superb with rich colors and crisp picture. I can't speak for anyone else on here but this TV has been a great purchase for me and I would definitely buy it again!


4 out of 5 stars After three years...   November 27, 2009
J. Filkins (Sunny South)
Within weeks of the warrenty expiring, while viewing, there was a loud "pop" and the picture ended. Not only had the bulb failed, bot also the "ballast." Fortunately, an extended warranty had been purchased. The service company picked up the unit and kept it, awaiting parts from Toshiba, for over three months. As others have reported, there were no parts readilly available at the time. Toshiba CS was no help at all.

Since the reapir, the unit has been "uber reilable," with an occassional (rare) push of the reset button. The picture is bright, the sound is excellent. In spite of the difficulties with Toshiba, it has been a worthwhile purchase.



2 out of 5 stars Love this TV. Until it didn't work anymore.   November 9, 2009
C. Hurwitz
I bought this TV from Costco. After about 3 years, the lamp stopped working. So I replaced it and i didn't mind too much - $200 every 3-4 years is not great, but ok. But then 9 months later, the new lamp stopped working. I replaced it twice only to discover that now the lamp wasn't the problem. Rather it was something much more expensive like the ballast board or the light engine. Rather get another TV.


4 out of 5 stars 62HM95, not as bad as rated here.   May 25, 2009
KEVIN
Well, I have to say I am a little surprised at the bashing this TV has taken from reviewers. We did experience a dead bulb very early on and Toshiba warranty replaced the bulb plus added 2 years to the warranty. Since that bulb, we've not had to replace it. The TV does have some peculiar behaviors, like the fans running all the time or the occasional no antenna signal for HD channels (yes, over the air). We paid $2400 back in 2006 for this and it's still a relative bargain for the size to cost ratio. In short, it's a great 1080i TV for the size, cost and function. The picture is great and it's been hanging on for about 3 years now. I just wish DLP was still as readily available, LCD and Plasma is just too high cost for the size - and frankly DLP works great. My $.02.


1 out of 5 stars Optic Engine Failed after 3 years   March 7, 2009
Michelle A. Jarnevic (Lee's Summit, MO)
My Toshiba 62HM95 DLP TV started making a loud buzzing or fan noise. I had an authorized Toshiba repair center come out to look at it and they determined it requires a new optic engine which has the color wheel. Total price of repair is $730.30. I've already had to replace the lamp unit far before it's advertised life expectancy. I called Toshiba and they said too bad. I will never buy another Toshiba product.
