Comments about Samsung PN-50A550 50-inch 1080p Plasma HDTV:

only issue is that AV1 has two component inputs but the composite video is shared between the two. This means you can't get color picture in both channels. The manual states that only 2008 TVs have this shared input. Not a big deal if you have HDMI or composite video hub. Still recommend this TV.

As advertised!
