TVs

I'm interested in getting a plasma or large screen TV of some kind. I am just wondering how it works. What does it cost, etc.... I would just call them but I don't feel like being harassed and continuously pressured into it by a salesperson. So if anyone has delt with them and wouldln't mind filling me in I'd really appreciate it. Thanks

My new TV is a 23 inch LCD/HDTV ready, do I need to purchase the HDTV tuner box from the satelite company or does my TV already have it. I am so confused!

I'm tryin to connect a DV-R to my tv but my TV only has dvi. I have a HDMI cable and a hdmi to dvi adaptor that I want to use. My question is I believe dvi is video only so what would be the best way to get sound. From optical?

I know either has its advantages and disadvantages. But one of Plasma's disadvantage is reflection of bright objects like ceiling light, oposite windows etc. Does the reflection effect the visual a lot?

I have a Vistron VIS026P 26" Widescreen LCD TV that I have plugged my Media Centre PC into via it's VGA socket. This is not an HD television, but it is reported to go up to resolutions of 1360x768.

I am able to reach that resolution at 60hz (with the TV set to 16:9 ratio), but I am getting some picture distortion that results in text looking occasionally blurred and broken up horizontally. At 1280x768 the image is similar to the above, and also at 1280x720 (which bizarrely is what the TV manual says it can reach)

However, at 1024x768 (with the TV set to 4:3 ratio) the image is perfect with clean and crisp text.

Does anybody have any idea what settings I need to change to get the image/text quality as good at the highest resolution? My old 19" LCD monitor had an 'Auto' button that sets the screen to the the correct timing and horizontal/vertical size, but this TV does not.

My PC has an nVidia 7600GT graphics card and I am using the latest official Forceware drivers (93.71).

I recently purchased a 37" LCD TV. I was told that if we watch too many programs that are not in the widescreen format it will "burn" the lines of the picture that is not in the widescreen format into my screen. Is this true? I am not into electronics much so please pardon me if my lingo is not correct.

There was already a dish here when we moved so we got dish, but they could only hook up 4 tv's, so I have 3 more tv's that need cable. Can I get Comcast cable and satellite tv? Will installing cable mess up the satellite service?

I have been taking quotations on several televisions. Apart from Samsung and Philips, there was the Sony (but the low class KDL-40U2000). The Samsung I've seen is the LE 37S71B and the Philips is PF7331. Sometimes the sellers try to make use of the bombastic brand names to sell out LCDs. However one must compare the specs and from what I can see, Samsung has a contrast ratio higher than Philips. But what about options? Philips have PixelPlus with this panel. Seems a cool option (though at a higher cost!). Anyone to help me decide which panel is best? Please list reasons for your decision. Thanks.

Just bought new LCD-HDTV. Local cable company say's I need extra hardware to recieve HD picture.
If shows are BROADCAST in HD, do I need additional hardware to actually get HD picture,although cable company is all digital?(they claim) Seems like a rip off from ATMC. (cable company)
I thought I was ready to go when I attached cable co-axle to TV. (Cable In)

I have an HDTV with 1 HDMI port. I have two options. 1. Should I hook up my HD DVR Digital Cable box up using the HDMI? OR 2. Should I hook up my upconvert DVD player with the HDMI instead? In either case, if I don't use the HDMI cable, what cable should I use to get the second best picture? Thanks!

You know i the digital would things are not always clear about how things work. A CRT has no real way to broadcast information it does not have a transmitter. Yeat with a digital TV or a LCD it might be possible to actually transmitte image and voice from the location of the house via cable. Whit out you even being aware of it. All it would take is a remote signel which any police officer could issue. Does this concern YOU?
