Re: Guides, menus on HD channels

wanger is right. It's refreshing to see someone from my area know how to properly hook up a cable box. Time and time again I've seen them hooked up with just coax, or coax and hd cables, and that also confuses the customer because they could accidently use Ch 3 or 4 instead of the proper input.

The order of quality from best to worst hookup is:

For HD Signals (Supports 720p/1080i High Def)
HDMI Cable - single wire cable
Component Cables - 5 wire cable (Red, Green, Blue, Left/Right Audio)

For SD Signals (No RF interference. Stereo Sound)
S-Video (if Available) (4 pin din connector, almost like a PS/2 keyboard or mouse connector) + White/Red audio wires
Composite video (Yellow, White, Red wires)

For the worst quality
Coax cable - RF Modulated to Ch 3 or 4. No stereo sound, susceptible to RF interference, and grain is superimposed on that great digital picture making it suboptimal.
