Just curious,
Correct me if I'm wrong...but when watching Digital Cable on a regular tv you're not watching a true digital signal. Correct? I'm assuming the signal is only digital through the transmission to your home, regular tv's are not capable of displaying a digital signal.
Okay, when watching HD-HBO (or any other high definition content) on a HDTV are you watching a true digital signal? Do HDTV's display a digital signal in 1080i, 720p, etc. or is it like the first example, is it only digital through the transmission and then converted by your hdtv to an analog signal?
I've always assumed that HDTV's display an analog signal, but maybe I'm wrong...
Thanks.
