I have a Sony and I notice that SD OTA is much better than SD from Dish.
Haven't tried to figure out why. HD is terrific OTA. I originally subscribed to DISH HD package but their HD broadcasts, other than ESPNHD, did not carry closed captioning which is vital for me watching anything. So, if you can get OTA where you are, then the SD should be better than from DISH. Jim "asylum" wrote in message ... Looking for HDTV with Good SDTV picture..

The SD channels on Dish (and DTV) are heavily compressed. (so they can fit
more channels on a single sat transponder) That is one reason why OTA SD looks much better. (unless you live where I do and cannot receiver OTA channels without a 100' tower !) james "Jim" wrote in message ink.net... I have a Sony and I notice that SD OTA is much better than SD from Dish.

I'm using a 32" Viewsonic monitor/HDTV and SD from Dish looks better on it
than on my 60" Mits. SD big screen. I am using Component Cables on the Viewsonic for my SD hookup and had started out with Composite (was really crappy). A buddy of mine has a 27" Olveia ( 427H) that looks good on both SD & HD using component and HDMI. james "asylum" wrote in message ... yeh, I know I won't have as goods as my old tube...

I have my 42" Hitachi plasma hooked through DishHD using the component
cables that came with the satellite receiver. Very good SD picture quality, excellent HD picture Quality. The set cost about $1100 (after a little haggling at Circuit City).

Hi, It would be best to stay away from Plasma TVs if you (or anyone else) will be using your TV to play video games (ps2 or 360) or as a computer monitor. Some plasma TVs can experience burn-in from the static images of video games (like scoreboards) or computer screens (like the Windows taskbar). Also, look out for dead pixels on your HDTV. If they bother you, make sure you can return your TV for a full refund or exchange. Good luck with your HDTV purchase, Ravik Tupja |
