Hitting Correlated with TV Type/Size

[bobtrain]

OK, so can someone explain this too me? I recently purchased a new TV and my hitting has gone to complete #$@^%. I've played an entire RTTS season on a 37 inch Panasonic Plasma TV and my hitting was ~.300 with only 58 strikeouts in ~300 AB. I recently purchased a new 55 inch Samsung TV and all of a sudden my timing is late. I'm only hitting .160 and am average a strikeout every 2 AB.

I mean really? Does a switch in TV really change the degree of timing that much? Can someone explain the science behind why a larger TV changes the pitch speed/difficulty? Has anyone else noticed a change from one TV to another?

Does your new tv have a game mode option? You should have that on.

Also, here is a thread that may pertain to your situation:

Is your new Samsung an LED by chance?

It's not the size difference, it's the display. Plasma TV's have zero input/response lag unlike LCD & LED TV's that are plagued with it and the main reason I'm selling my old 46 inch Samsung LCD for a 51 inch Samsung plasma

And yes I have game mode on already

Yea it's LED. Game mode seems to help, but I couldn't believe the timing difference between the ol' plasma and LED. I was early if anything on plasma and late on everything on LED.

Upgraded from a Panasonic 32" LED to 42" LG and it has game mode, hitting dramatically increased..power now off the charts.

Sadly, still no word of them implementing lag calibration either.

It really needs to happen, because my buddies big 42" Samsung DOES NOT have a Game mode, so he can no longer even play The Show, and will likely not buy any future editions until his TV breaks.
