I don't believe you can pass HD over S-video cables. You need composite
video or HDMI cables. And even if the program you are watching Says it's
broadcast in HD, Time Warner might not be sending you HD. To be sure you are
getting "all HDTV can be" watch the OTA broadcast for free.

My day was great. I spent some bucks on fishing gear, and my wife
bought me some new "resort" clothes for my trip next week.

I spent the afternoon with Mrs. H shopping for a stand for our new HDTV
as we will be giving our old 36" RCA (1994 vintage) cathode ray and
stand to our daughter since receiving our new 46" Sony HDTV.

The payoff was a great shrimp and crap dinner followed by a movie on the
new TV.

BTW: Time Warner sucks big time as it does not appear to recognize
HDMI. Although the S-Video input works on our box/set the HDMI input
does not, despite swapping out TW HD boxes, HDMI cables and trying
various settings on the new Sony.


Better call the Geek squad.


That is never an option. Between TW and me we will get it squared away.

BTW: The picture using the S-Video connection is pretty impressive!
