HDTV is a new format for displaying a TV picture. It has higher resolution and clarity than the old NTSC format. Most stations that are broadcasting digital signals are now using 4 channels for every 1 they had before. They are reserving some channels for HDTV format and some channels for NTSC format. An HDTV will display the HDTV format and probably the NTSC format as well. An HDTV monitor can display the same picture, but probably lacks a tuner to actually receive the television signals. You need to plug something into it like a computer, a DVD player, or a tuner. If that thing sends out an HDTV signal then you can see it on the monitor.
No, and actually you will probably get more over the air channels than before, and with much higher quality than you might expect. Some of the channels are being broadcast in HDTV format, which has higher resolution than standard TV. Look at other questions about HDTV and how to find out what stations are in your area and how to choose the best antenna.
HDTV integrated is probably just marketing talk (written on the box) for HDTV. It means the same thing. HDTV is a new format that has higher resolution, higher clarity, and is all digital. TV stations in the USA are broadcasting digitally in HDTV format, or changing over by 2009. They are not required to stick to that format when they send digital signals, but if you get an HDTV you will probably be set up to receive most broadcast stations for a long time, as some stations will be reserved for that format. Also, your TV will probably still display other formats. For example, some channels are broadcasted digitally but still in the old NTSC format that old TVs display.
Their are only two satelite T.V. Providers in the USA. Dishnetwork and Direct TV. Dishnetwork has Better Packages and at better prices. They are also cheaper for the Boxes.
One HDTV brand is LG. Some others include TCL, Samsung, and RCA
Hi, It really depends on your PIP output on the cable box and whether or not the output is HDTV or standard TV. And in some cases, the PIP output will only display non-HDTV channels, depending again, on the box and the cable company. However, IF the cable company says that a HDTV signal is available from the PIP output on the cable box, then it'll probably work. The only way to be sure is to connect a TV and find out. Hope this helps, Cubby
HDTV is the latest development in consumer television and offers a significant improvement over standard definition. People buy the new technology for the better image quality. The broadcasting industry is moving rapidly towards HDTV and there will come a time in the near future when some channels will not be available in SD. HD equipment will be needed for any of these channels. Finally, there is a small group of people who will buy the latest technology simply because it is the latest technology. These were the first people to invest in HD and are now looking towards the nest technology to invest in.
Please note that you don't have to have HD TV service to play HD TV games, but you do to watch high definition television. If your TV is an "HDTV" (as opposed to a "HD ready TV"), then the Radio Shack box isn't going to do you any good. There are two ways that you might be able to get HDTV programing without buying HD cable service. Your HDTV should have a digtial over the air tuner (ATSC in the US). If you are located in an area were you can get TV reception with an antenna, then just hook up a TV antenna to your HDTV and tune into a HDTV broadcast. Some cable systems include non-premium digial channels in a format called QAM. Most HDTVs have a QAM tuner built into them. Just connect your HDTV directly to your cable outlet (not through a converter box) and scan for digital cable channels.
Best Buy will have some deals on Sony HDTV as well as many other types of HDTVs. You should also consider going to HH Gregg as well.
You can buy 19" HDTV's online from most major retailers. Some good places to get 19" HDTV's online include Best Buy, Amazon, Newegg, Overstock and Walmart.
To record on an HDTV antenna, you'll need a digital video recorder (DVR) that is compatible with over-the-air signals. Connect the antenna to the DVR and set it up to scan for channels. Once set up, you can schedule recordings through the DVR's interface for your desired shows. Alternatively, some smart TVs have built-in DVR capabilities that allow you to record directly to an attached USB storage device.
