I was searching for smaller TVs with serial control (to use with CQC) recently. I've bought my TVs already, but I though I would share my research here in case anyone else finds themselves in a similar situation. Please let me know if you know of any other TVs in this size range that have serial control and I will add them to the list. I posted originally on AVS Forum but did not get any suggestions from that crowd.
Here is what I have found so far.
Olevia
227V - 27"
527V - 27"
232V - 32"
432V - 32"
532H - 32"
LG
20LS7DC - 20" (thanks 123)
23LS7DC - 23" (thanks 123)
26LG30 - 26"
26LG40 - 26" with a built in DVD player
32LG30 - 32"
32LG40 - 32" with a built in DVD player
32LG60 - 32"
32LG70 - 32"
Zenith
Z22LCD3 - 22" (Uses the LG protocol)
Sharp
None with RS-232 in 19-32" sizes
Westinghouse
None with RS-232 in 19-32" sizes
Samsung
None with RS-232 in 19-32" sizes. Some models may have a service port which allows limited control, but there is no way to turn the TV on from the service port. So you would have to have an IR emitter attached to the TV in addition to the rs232 connection
Panasonic
None with RS-232 in 19-32" sizes
Toshiba
None with RS-232 in 19-32" sizes
Vizio
None with RS-232 in 19-32" sizes. Some models have a service port, but according to the support people at Vizio, it cannot be used for control. (If someone knows that this is incorrect, please let me know - we know how accurate the tech people can be about stuff like this).
Thanks
