Vizio TV Lag When Playing Video Games on Xbox or Playstation
So I just bought a new Vizio 42″ LDC 1080P HDTV, and hooked my xbox 360 up to it last night. I couldn’t wait to see how the picture quality had changed from having my old projection tv which was only 1080i to this new one! So I popped in my favorite game Halo 3 and hopped online to play a couple games. Right away i noticed something was wrong. It was extremely difficult to kill anyone. It was like someone else was controlling the game for me. I coudn’t figure out what was going on at first, but then it hit me. The response time from the games controller was about a half sec later to display on the TV. This made it damn near impossible to kill any of the opposing players. My aim was always a half second behind where the enemy was moving. This was getting so frustrating and made me not even want to play the game. I knew there had to be some kind of setting to fix this though.
How to fix Vizio TV Lag from your Gaming System (Xbox or PLaystation)
All you need to do to fix this problem on is change one little setting in the Video settings on your tv. This may be different for every TV, but in mine its just switchig a setting called “Fast Response.” By default this is off, so the response time from your games controller to the tv lags a little. So for a Vizio tv, just go to Menu – Picture – More – Fast Response, and turn the Fast Response to ON. Thats all it takes! Now plays video games on this tv is great! What a differense it makes going from 1080i to 1080p!!
