16:9 Widescreen / ATSC and NTSC TV Tuners / 1366x768 Resolution for 720p and 1080i / Integrated DVD-Player / Plays DVD - DVD-RW - CD - CDR - CDRW
Amazon.com Product Description
Now you can play your entertainment library on one versatile machine. Since the 26LV67 has both a DVD player and a 26-inch screen, you won't have to worry about connecting different electronic components in order to watch your favorite program. This convenience is matched only by its smart, stylish design.
The Value of LCD TVs
Aside from their obvious aesthetic value, LCD TVs are much more practical in the home than CRT (tube-style) televisions. They take up a smaller footprint, and thus use up less floor space in the room. Also, LCD TVs are lighter and easier to move around when cleaning or redecorating. The 26LV67 is only 4.65 inches deep and weighs less than 30 pounds. Best of all, LCD screens use less power than CRTs and plasma screens.
Full-Featured DVD Player
The 26LV67 includes an integrated, slot-loading DVD player. It has upconverting technology that improves the standard picture definition of regular DVDs to match the 1366 x 768 (720p HDTV) display resolution of the 26LV67.
Connections
The set has a built-in digital television tuner, so out of the box it can receive digital broadcast ATSC signals and QAM signals used by most digital cable providers. It also has a built-in 181-channel NTSC tuner, so it can also accept traditional analog signals. It is also capable of these connections:
- HDMI inputs: 3
- ColorStream HD component video inputs: 2
- PC monitor input: 1 (VGA 15 Pin D-Sub)
- RF input: 1 rear
- A/V inputs: 2 (rear and side)
- Optical audio output: 1
Audio
The SoundStrip speaker system hides the unit's speakers in a thin strip bordering the screen. They're powerful enough to deliver big stereo sound, but they don't add significantly to the size of the set.
Toshiba's StableSound feature maintains television volume within a preset range regardless of the source signal. This is an extremely useful feature when transitioning between a quiet television program and a very loud commercial advertisement or when changing channels.
SRS WOW, a combination of SRS 3D, TruBass, and Focus sound-expanding systems, create a 3-D sound field with improved bass response over standard TV audio and create directed, three-dimensional audio sweet spot for maximum enjoyment. The cabinet includes stereo speakers, but the TV also has optical digital output for connecting to your audio system.
Other Features
Channel browser shows you thumb-nail images of the last five channels you've watched at the touch of a button. You can also see previews of your preset Favorite Channels along the bottom of the screen.

Customer Reviews:
the best tv in the house!.......2007-09-21
Toshiba has been my favorite brand for 5 years. Each model is better than the others. First of all, this model needs an extra manual just to use the remote.....so many options!! Some people are put off by that fact, but it just means that this is high quality which equals years of enjoyment. My primary reason for Toshiba combos is that the built in dvd player will memorize the stopped point of a movie even when the set is not in use. This model will also remain in dvd mode when the set is off. My other models will automatically switch to tv mode again when the set is turned off. With the trash on tv these days, 99% of the time I watch dvd's, so this feature is convienent. Saves a step on the remote. Picture is crystal clear & crisp. It is annoying that the default picture size is "normal" which does not fill out the screen (what's the point of 26 inches when you don't get a 26 inch view). I use the "theatre 1" which does give a 26 inch picture. It does not hold from dvd to dvd or from tv to dvd though. After a disc is ejected or tv/dvd mode is switched the picture has to be adjusted once more. Besides this flaw, I still love the quality of this model.
Great unit - Terrible shipper.......2007-09-20
Very satisfied with this unit. Great picture. Good/useful features. Sensible controls. Built-in DVD very easy/handy to use.
But - terrible shipping experience. First unit mysteriously "disappeared" after making it as far as the final UPS delivery truck. Second unit had obviously been removed from the original factory packaging, and then hurriedly stuffed back into the box, with resulting damage to packaging materials, along with parts which were no longer adequately protected.
This unit, ordered from Amazon, is shipped by Electronics Expo, who uses only UPS as their contracted shipper. Electronics Expo was very helpful during the claim process (with UPS), keeping in constant communication. UPS, on the other hand, was very unreliable, failing to follow through on their promised responses during the two-week process. The customer should have at least a small choice of shippers.
Don't blame TV for analog realities..........2007-09-18
I wrote this review solely to mitigate the woman who gave it a 1 because it doesn't display analog over the air signals well. I challenge her to find ANY LCD HD TV that does. They all stink at it, as it's the nature of the technology, so unless she writes a review of every LCD TV and gives them all 1's, she shouldn't condemn this one. My Sharp HD LCD has the same issue. Displays great DTV picture, great DVD picture, great picture when using even composite input from Dish Network, but horrible picture from analog tuner. That's life in 2007...
Excellent Picture. But did not meet all expectations........2007-07-16
The picture quality is excellent and I am satisfied with my purchase. However, I have one complaint. The TV does not remember the picture size for digital channels. The moment you change the channel, the picture size returns back to Normal and it is very iritating specially if the broadcast is 4:3 and you see two bars on the sides. I had called Toshiba service to get this resolved and they seemed to state that this should not be the case and referred me to local service provider. However, the local service provider after talking back with Toshiba told me that this was the default behavior. I was not satisfied with the reply so I tried out TVs at local BestBuy. I found that in smaller 23" model, the menu to change the picture size for digital channel was disabled completely. So, I was atleast happy that I was able to change the picture size in my 26LV67. Next time ( if there is one) I am going to stick with Sony brand because they have fully functional menus in all their Models.
Great small LCD TV!.......2007-05-16
Great LCD TV for a small room. Has a built in upconverting DVD for excellent clarity with a standard DVD. Price was very competitive for a brand new model. Don't expect great viewing with a standard cable signal however. Not an issue if you primarily watch DVD's.

Amazon.com Product Description
This Toshiba model is a high-definition widescreen TV that's ideal for the latest digital entertainment. Not only does it feature a Regza Premium Cinespeed LCD panel capable of 1080 interlaced lines of HDTV resolution and an HDMI input port, but it also has a 15-pin D-sub port, allowing you to connect a PC and have the set double as a computer monitor. It even includes a built-in DVD player, so you won't have to deal with unsightly cables to an external device. A built-in Ethernet jack allows you to access digital photo and audio files from your home network using the included universal glow remote.
The Value of LCD TVs
Aside from their obvious aesthetic value, LCD TVs are much more practical in the home than CRT (tube-style) televisions. They take up a smaller footprint, and thus use up less floor space in the room. Also, LCD TVs are lighter and easier to move around when cleaning or redecorating. The 26HLV66 is only 4.57 inches deep and weighs just over 40 lbs. without the stand. Best of all, LCD screens use less power than CRTs and plasma screens.
Video
Response time is the interval an LCD screen takes to switch from its darkest color to its lightest color and back again, measured in milliseconds (ms). This screen's response time is 8 ms, which is at the faster and better end of the spectrum. This screen is likely to display cleaner, sharper images during high-action scenes and display fewer image artifacts than other screens in its class. And because the set has a 12-bit digital processor, it can display many times more shades of gray and levels of color than 8-bit systems can. The set is rated with a 176-degree viewing angle, so the picture will be viewable from nearly any part of the room. While it lacks the CableCARD slot that other sets have, the 26HLV66 does come with a built-in QAM digital cable tuner and an ATSC/NTSC tuner that will display terrestrial or over-the-air HDTV and traditional analog signals.
HDMI Compatible
The set comes with a built-in High-Definition Multi-media Interface (HDMI) port. HDMI is an interface format that provides uncompressed digital audio and video directly from a DVD player, next-generation game system, or some other digital video source. It represents the current state of the art in high-definition video and sound because the information never has to be converted into an analog format or compressed. Another benefit of HDMI is that it puts all that information into one cable and one easy-to-use connector.
Full-Featured DVD Player
The integrated DVD player is compatible with several disc formats: DVD Video, CD-R, CD-RW, VCD and DVD-R. It has upconverting technology that improves the standard picture definition of regular DVDs to match the 1080i capabilities of the 26HLV66. Want to view photos? Simply move your JPEG photos onto a CD-R or CD-RW disc and the 26HLV66 will provide you access to a slide show of your images with a few clicks on the player's remote control. Similarly, MP3 music files recorded to disc will play nicely.
Audio
SRS WOW, a combination of SRS 3D, TruBass, and Focus sound-expanding systems, creates a 3-D sound field with improved bass response over standard TV audio as well as a directed, three-dimensional audio sweet spot for maximum enjoyment. The cabinet includes stereo speakers, but the TV also has optical digital output for connecting to your audio system. Toshiba's StableSound feature maintains television volume within a preset range regardless of the source signal. This is an extremely useful feature when transitioning between a quiet television program and a very loud commercial advertisement or when changing channels.
Parent Features
The 26HLV66's sleep timer allows you to set the television to automatically shut off after a preset duration. It's a handy and common feature to modern TVs, but the 26HLV66 takes it a step further. Game Timer shuts the TV off after set duration and can only be turned on with a special lockout code. The Video Lock feature allows the user to lock out selected inputs, which is handy when limiting a child's access to video games. Of course the built-in V-Chip functionality makes it so parents can set a threshold content setting and effectively lock inappropriate TV content out of the home.
Other Features
For optimum display of each type of input source, the 26HLV66 allows the viewer to make video adjustments for each type of input, such as RF, composite, S-video, and ColorStream component video inputs. The SurfLock feature gives the viewer the freedom to browse programs on other channels then return to the original channel at any time simply by pressing one button.
26-inch Widescreen
A general rule of thumb for selecting the right size television screen is that the screen width--not its 26-inch diagonal measurement--should be between three and five times the optimum viewing distance, such as the distance from the TV screen to where your eyes are while sitting on the couch. Less than that, and you may be distracted by the scan lines of the picture. More than that, and you may lose the detail of your TV. Based on this guide, the 26HLV66 is ideal for viewing distances of six to 10 feet.
Here is a list of the set's audio, video, and data connections:
- Audio/video input: 2
- ColorStream HD input: 2
- S-video input: 1
- HDMI input: 1
- PC input: 1
- RF input: 1
- Audio video output: 1
- Optical digital audio output: 1
- RJ-45 Ethernet: 1

good value.......2007-11-03
Great picture and good value...some issues with a "light" spot on the screen that won't go away. Product support could be much better...buy it and hope there are no bugs...good luck. Great for watching sports!!!
Toshiba Regza TV Purchase.......2007-09-21
I had a few doubts about purchasing this Television refurbished but it arrived in "like new" condition and within the stated time frame. Communication with the seller was superb and they let me know where my product was every step of the way. All in all I am very satisfied with my purchase and will definitely be buying from them again!
Toshiba Regza 26HLV66.......2007-04-02
After having bought a Sony KDL46XBR2 set for our primary TV, we wanted another smaller high quality set for the bedroom. However, my wife was unhappy about the mute function on the Sony. This Toshiba (with or without the DVD player) seems to be the only one on the market that has the mute feature my wife wanted. Specifically, when the mute button is pressed, the closed captioning (visual writing of the spoken word appears) although it takes two (2) presses because the first press is only partial mute lowering the volume. When muted, a press of the mute button clears the writing and the audio resumes. The Sony -- and apparently virtually all other current HD LCD TVs on the market -- require one to go through a menu to turn on the closed captioning and then to turn it off, unless one wants both the sound and the closed captioning when the mute is returned to audible. Another feature my wife likes is the ability to surf and return to the original channel. One can "lock" the channel being viewed, then surf multiple channels and return to the original with one click. The only real fault I find is the instruction manual. It does not sequentially go through each menu item, but skips back and forth. I also think the sound level is lower than on the Sony, but this is most likely relative in that I have to set it to a higher numerical level, but as a percentage of the sound level bar, the two appear to be about the same. Other reasons for the difference may relate to room acoustics, location, etc. I have "issues" with both sets in that although they imply the set chooses the correct image format - labeled "Normal", Theater 1", "Theater 2", "Theater 3" and "Full" for this set and "Normal", Zoom", "Full Zoom" and "Wide Zoom" for the Sony - neither one seems to work. Making changes on the Sony is easier as there is one button to do so directly; with the Toshiba, one must access a menu.
good tv.......2007-03-27
easy set-up. dvd's look great. there is a slight blurring with sports action if your 6 ft or less from tv. a limitation on lcd response time from what i've read. i'd still recommend it to anyone.
Toshiba Looking Forward.......2007-03-21
I hope to expand on the potential of this product at a later date, for now it has been GREAT. I have satellite and will expand on the setup to recieve the full potential as advertised by Toshiba.
Fast shipping, well packaged, and good tracking info.
