![]() ![]() We were able to watch TV in the main window, while configuring our Popcorn Hour media streamer in a little PiP window. Picture-in-picture mode is present and correct, and is actually quite useful on a screen this large. The Pioneer has a few extra tricks that it can produce when required. The TV displays these in such a way as to reduce motion judder, which some people find quite upsetting on movies. The LX5090 is a 1080/24p TV, so it can accept Blu-ray movies in their native format. It also means that if you want to use all the sockets, you'll be in the menu system swapping things around from time to time. This works well once you figure it out, and means you are in control of what inputs you actually use. By default, the TV doesn't map each of its Scart, component, composite or even HDMI sockets to specific input - instead you have to select what you want to be assigned to each of the numbered buttons. KURO SMART PLAYER SERIESThe remote controller that comes with the 5090 has a series of buttons at the top, labelled 1-5 and PC. Pioneer has an unusual approach to inputs on its TVs. That's partially because it looks great turned off, but mostly because the master power switch is a pain to find - it's on the back of the TV, at the bottom and expertly concealed. When you get it on a stand in the corner of your room you'll almost certainly spend at least an hour looking at it before you even turn it on. Black is a theme here, clearly designed to remind you at every moment that this TV is all about the absence of light. The TV itself is the same basic design as the other Kuro TVs. We like this configuration more because it takes up less space and will mean good things for people with limited space. The LX5090 was sent to us with the under-screen mounted version, which in turn comes with a slightly different table stand that raises the TV slightly higher to accommodate the speaker bar. When we reviewed the LX6090 a few months ago we were sent the side-mounted speaker configuration. So what does the £2,280 Pioneer Kuro PDP-LX5090 have to offer?
