New to HD, I dunno what to call it but how do I stop it? It happens on HD and non HD signals, I mean it isn't constant but it happens fairly often. Lets say someone in a show or movie walks fast from one side of the screen to the other, there is a sliver of a blank space on the side of their...
I just got confused more, I thought they were mostly the same, unless you were running a really long cable. This is what I ordered and have hooked up High Speed HDMI 1.3a Category 2 Certified Cable 28AWG - 6ft w/Ferrite Cores (Gold Plated Connectors) - BLACK Got it from monoprice
Is there another way to hook this up? I have an HDTV with QAM tuner getting the local channels thru comcast right from the wall, and I also have a digital cable box until I get the HD one, I also have a DVDR hooked up, is there a way I can hook them both at the same time. without using composite...
Thanks so much, I ended up not buying the HDMI yet. Anyone give me link to reputable online dealer that has cheap, yet good HDMI cables? The cheapest one at my Wal-Mart was 28 bucks. If I can get it around 10 to 15 bucks shipped that would perfect. Like I said, I only need one 6 foot or less.
I am going to wal-mart to see if I can find a decent priced HDMI cable, I don't need a long one, less than 6 feet would suffice. What numbers and such should I look for on the pkging? I wanna hook it to the DVD player (It has HDMI).
I just got my first look at the local HD channels by just hooking up like Stephen said, and I my jaw nearly dropped to the ground, I can't belive how much better they look than the standard ones, I kept switching back and forth between the standard local CBS and NBC affiilates to compare to...
That's the answer I was looking for, you are the only one who answered it like I was thinking, I just wanted it confirmed that you must have either an HD converter box, or pick up local HD stations via antenna to see that extra picture info on the sides during HD sports games. I have done a...
I've done the zoom and 16:9 on ballgames, I don't get the extra info at the sides no matter what I do, and I know these are HD broadcast games, but like I side, I don't have and HD converter yet, only standard.
Yeah, but for those HD sportscast, no matter what settings I tweak with the standard cable box, I can't see the extra info on the sides I see on other's TV, if I want it to fill the screen it will, but not without chopping off part of the scoreboard and channel (i.e. FOX, CBS, etc.)
Thanks for the answers, so I am correct in saying that with HD sportscast you can't see the proper 16:9 ratio with space on the sides without having and HD conversion, unike shows like HOUSE which are always shown as letterboxed even on a standard TV.
So I got my first ever HDTV (Woot : Philips 47" 1080p 120Hz LCD HDTV with Perfect Pixel HD Engine) I'd like to confirm some things. I have standard Comcast digital cable, I don't have HD cable yet, so do I need to call them to install the HD box or can I just call them, pick it up and...
