I have Time warner digital cable with the picture going to my RPTV via the DVI input. Digital and HD channels are centered perfectly but when I flip the channels down into the analog channel range the picture is off-center to the left. This leaves a vertical black bar about 2" wide on the right...
I've had the 57H83 since mid March and have had no issues with it at all. I've been very impressed with performance and am enjoying it a lot. But the tv I upgraded from was a 10 yr old 27". So, everything looks good compared to that. I got it from Best Buy when they were running a good sale on...
wow, quick responses. Thanks to everyone for the info. I may just stick with the sound and vision disc because I have a feeling I'll only be making basic adjustments, and it's supposed to be the most recent release, correct? But knowing my need to always want things better, I might be better off...
I've done a lot of research about calibration discs and have heard how wonderful they are, but what specifically do they allow you to do? On the video side of things, I keep hearing how they include "test patterns" to help dial in the picture, but what kind of test patterns specifically do they...
I have a set of component cables that I'm using for my dvd player that I know are good quality, so I'll just use them to compare against. And thanks for the info on the radio shack converter. I didn't know such a thing existed, but for $15 I'll give it a shot. Thanks!
I just had my HD cable hooked up last night. They hooked up the HD cable box and used one of their own component cables to connect it to my toshiba rptv. The picture looks nice, but I'm wondering if the cables they supply are any good? Or would I be better off getting my own set of component...
yep, the HTIB will just take care of all the audio... not a big deal in my book. I think I'm going to go ahead and get the DVI cable vs. the components. Anyone have any recommendations about a quality DVI cable for a good price. best buy wanted to sell me one (monster I think) for $100! I know...
Thanks guys. This method I'm using apparently won't allow me to have any audio from the tv's speakers, but I figure that's why I have the surround sound. Another quick question, I did some window shopping yesterday to price a DVI cable and was amazed at how expensive they are compared to...
First off, I love the forum. I've been reading as much of the FAQ and primer as I can to soak up some info. My question concerns the specific equipment that I'll be using and what kinds of cables I'll need to hook everything up. I'm purchasing a new home soon and therefore won't be able to...
