JohnH,
Thanks for the friendly reminder. I think I tossed the lure on my last
jump.


We've both tried to have reasonable discussions with Skipper. Neither of us
have been successful. There's only one place for him, as I've yet to see
*anything* worthwhile from him.

It would be nice if a few others would do the same thing.

The above inflammatory blather does absolutely nothing for your
credibility.


Nor does it change the fact that he's right.

My SONY HDTV has the same sized screen display on regular or HDTV
cablecasts, so I am guessing you have a setting set wrong.


Sorry, wrong.

Different aspect ratios. IF you even have an HD unit (which I doubt)
it would be YOUR settings that are wrong.

This from a guy who doesn't know what a DVR is. Hmmm...sounds like
another one of his "My life is so great, and I'm better than you"
stories.

Nope, as usual, YOU are wrong.

HD broadcasts have an aspect ratio of 16:9. Regular broadcasts are in 4:3
AR. If your regular programming fills the screen of an HD display, either
everyone looks fat or you're cutting off significant parts of the top and
bottom of the picture.


Absolutely correct.

Fred, this is just another one of his "Zimmerman, 65 knot Parker, GPS
to set trim, GPS with wrong time, long driveway, sat downlink, 3 year
old house, 20 year old wife, who has a double doctorate, I have an
iPod" lie...nothing more.

Since neither of you rectal fissures has any idea of the capabilities or

I *DO* know the settings of virtually all of modern SONY televisions,
and their capabilities.

And once again, you have been proven a liar.

$100 for a 2-port HDMI switch with remote. Experiment with the picture
quality of component vs. HDMI out of the DVD player. My guess is you'll
order the switch.


Fred,

HDMI cables offer no increased video clarity or benefits up to 1080i
verses component cables...even from a progressive scan source (DVD
player).

Some sets offer more than 1080i resolution, but without a matching
source, the point is moot. Its like having a 6' satellite dish, to
lock a signal, that an 18" can do.

Now down the road, when HD increases over 1080i, and sources, such as
HD-DVD sets become available, then the added bandwidth of the HDMI
cables becomes usable.

I suppose if you were planning for the future, it would hurt anything
to start using HDMI cables, but don't look for any added
bandwidth/clarity/performance on the current standard HD/DVD
platform...at least over component cabling.
