Re: Finally upgraded to HD, but the SD channels look like crap!
said by sneskid  :So I called FSC about this, and the CSR said that the next software update is indeed supposed to address this problem and that we should get it by the end of this month here in Northern VA. Has anyone else heard the same thing? The last information I had on this issue was that it would be mid-July before an update to correct the SD issue as well as the HDMI green line issue.

So with the different color space I get the "beveled" or shifted image on the left side of the display. For now I am using component cables, but it doesn't make sense to go from digital (source material) to analog (component) then back to digital (1080P TV). These are work arounds, not fixes - the problem didn't exist before the IMG update back in January (for my VHO)

when your CRT tv gets the signal from its digital inputs (hdmi)it has to convert it to analog which is what a CRT tv uses anyway. when u use component cables from the box to the tv the tv does not need to convert it to analog but passes it without more conversion.
I could be wrong here but i think thats how it goes in the crt hdtv world. |
