LG 42LH90 - 42 LED (2M:1) 240Hz Intell Sensor TV Review

I bought this TV about 2 weeks ago and it is fabulous. The picture is as good as any I have ever seen. I couldn't be more happy with the set.

I have had two minor problems (neither really having to do with the TV).
I got my upgraded cable box to process HD signal. I noticed when I clicked on the INFO button on the TV remote, it always said that the current channel was 720p. I emailed my cable provider and found that their cable box was preset to that level. They told me the simple process to update the cable box settings (it came with absolutely no instructions). I now get all HD channels in 1080. I had always heard that on a 42" TV and there was really little difference between 720 and 1080, but I found the picture to be much improved even at the 42" level.
My other problem is hooking up the VCR (I am hoping to avoid the additional /mo charge to my cable bill, but will probably have to bite the bullet). Again I think the cable box is the culprit. I hooked up the red/white/yellow connectors to the cable box and fed it to the VCR. The first time I tried to record, it seemed to work fine, but since then I have never gotten it to work. Again, the TV is not to blame, but there are issues that can pop up when one upgrades.

LG 42LH90 - 42 LED (2M:1) 240Hz Intell Sensor TV Overview

Unlike other LED HDTVs that use ?edge? lighting, LG?s LH90 uses a full array of LED backlights which employ local dimming techniques for more precise picture control, resulting in deeper blacks, a wider color gamut and smoother motion, for a more natural picture.
