In additon to what RAF has stated I recognize this problem as I experienced the same thing when I hooked up my Blu-ray player via HDMI and tried to watch a standard def DVD on it, it looked extremely grainy until I switched the players resolution output from 1080p to 480p and then DVD's looked fine.

Not sure if that's a help but it sounds like it might apply to your friends problem as well.
