I have a samsung 132 rear pro HDTV only 18 months old
Until now I have had a non-progressive scan pioneer dvd player running through component.
Component is capable of 480p/576p/720p/1080i
I never had a picture quality problem with this setup.
In the last 2 weeks I have tried two different dvd player brands, LG and Pioneer with progressive scan but from some reason using the same component cables as before, the picture has a pattern of lines running through it..
The lines are invisble, ie they blend with the picture and dont have edges so you cant really notice them that easy but its still there.
With the newer dvd players do you need to get higher quality component cables, as the component cables i am using are just standard ones supplied with my STB
Also my LG HDB STB when running through component is ok so I know the cables arent dodgy. I did use the same component cables with a brand new tv at the shop and the picture was ok but i thought with my tv being 18 months old maybe for these players with better pic quality might need better quality cables for my tv to display the good picture..
Also with the more expensive cables I dont want to go buy monster branded $80 component cables but I did see some at JB Hi Fi for about $20 they looked like good ones.
Can someone tell me with the higher quality component cables, what makes them different to just a $10 component cable and If i want to buy a better cable, what should I look for to know its high quality?
Thanks
