Digital Television

Most HDTV's have the capability to play VHS, but depending on your TV capabilities it may or might not fill the screen. Also, the bigger the HDTV the worse the picture will look. You can only stretch 480i so far before it starts to look horrible. On Most standard resolution TV's VHS looks ok because you are viewing the VHS source at such a low resolution, that you can't see all of its defects. When you go to an HDTV you are actually getting a view of that VHS source that is either 2x or 3x higher in resolution, which basically means you are getting a much better look at all of the defects of the 480i VHS source. As a result, 480i VHS source on an HDTV looks worse than it does on a standard television. There ARE some newer DVD/VCR combination units that "upconvert" the VHS signal, but 480i upconverted to 720p or 1080i/1080p will not look as good as a signal that is natively those higher resolutions. As a plus, some TV's also do some signal processing which further cleans up the signal from incoming devices.. So betwen a device upconverting and a TV processing, the signal might not look half as bad is if it were untouched... But it still will not be as clean as a straight nativie 720p/1080i/1080p signal.

It really depends on the size of the televison, what kind it is, and many other factor. Not all televisions weigh the same.

If you have cable or sattlelite hook up at your home, you really do not need a digital converter. If you only are using rabbit ears, you really would need a digital conterter box, so you would be able to watch TV.

weak signal strength. Call up the signal strength bar from the menu then raise or rotate the antenna until the bar shows an increase.

all converter box's are the same.

It's out of Bridgette, Ele, Paul and Libby though I think Libby will die because in the ads Steph is leaning over a grave (I think with flowers around it) which means it may be Libby.

Onn televisions are sold exclusively by Asda. All Onn products are made by the German company Schneider Electric.

Depending primarily on its frequency,radio wave may travel from the tranmitting to the receiving aerial in a number of ways.The most important of these are :

1. Ground waves (or Surface waves):they are useful for low frequencies of below 1000 KHz .

2. Sky waves: the transmission of radio waves in the frequency range of 3 to 30 MHz.

3.Direct waves( or line-of sight waves):At frequency above 30 MHz ,radio transmission cannot be carried out by ground wave or sky wave.

I'm certain television won't poison you, I mean you might waste time watching it but it's certainly not going to poison you!!

Plasma, in physics terms, is the fourth state of matter. It's form is similar to gas, but at extreme temperatures and energy, and shows the true colour of most elements when they are in their plasma form. Plasma is generally only found in the experimental Fusion reactors and in the stars themselves though due to the extreme requirements to create Plasma.

It is not possible to convert an analog television to a digital television. However, by using a digital set top receiver, it is possible to receive digital signals and deliver them as an analog signal to an analog television.

Digital receivers are not expensive, starting at around $25 in US and £20 in the UK. They will allow all terrestrial channels to be received in the same way that a digital television will.

Cable and satellite receivers can also receive digital signals and will provide an analog output that can be used with older televisions.

With these options, there is no need to replace analog televisions right away. Remember that analog only televisions will not be HD so don't expect a sudden increase in picture quality when the digital receivers are used.

Digital television is not so much an invention as development. There are several factors that have supported the introduction of digital television. Looking at the question from another perspective, digital television has only recently been available for consumers because the cost of computing hardware has been prohibitively expensive until recent years. The rapid decrease in the cost of large and complex electronic circuits over the last decade has enabled viewers to make use of digital television at a sensible cost. However, digital television has been around for 30 years. The early digital effects units made an entrance to the television production scene during the 70s and have been improving ever since. A DVE is the device used to resize, reshape and manipulate video images and today it is used on virtually every production in some way. With more and more digital equipment available for production, almost all broadcast studios now use digital signals from the camera to tape. The final program is archived on disc rather than tape in most modern facilities so the final link to the consumer inevitably was to become a digital signal. Digital storage has enabled quick and simple re-purposing. This is the process by which a program can be broadcast over traditional links to a television and also formatted ready for broadcast over the Internet, to Ipods or to mobile phones. The formats are very different but digital storage is the starting point for the formatting process. It has also enabled video on demand services that would be impossible with analog storage and transmission Television and computing are converging. Computer data and Internet communication is digital and as television is sharing many of the same lines, digital data makes it far easier to combine both services. As a result, a single fiber or copper link into a house can serve telephones, Internet and television services. The convergence will continue until there is little distinction between data and broadcast. Digital program delivery to homes allows more channels to be accommodated, more additional services to be provided like multi-language content and interactive services. The progression to digital has been planned for many years and we will see more ways to receive television programs in the coming years.

"Standard-definition" (meaning 480i) Cathode-ray tube televisions are analog. CRT TV's are easily identifiable by their immense weight and the fact that their depth nearly matches their width and height. Newer, hi-def (720p, 1080i/p) televisions are almost all either lcd, plasma, or dlp, all of which are digital. for digital TV monitor shouldnot be of CRT.

There are many stations called "channel 4" and without knowing which one you are asking about, we cannot answer this question. But I wonder if you are asking about the "ethics" rather than the "ethos." The "ethos" means the company's characteristics, morals, and guiding beliefs. Ethics are more related to how an individual behaves, the person's sense of right and wrong. Most TV stations say their ethics (and their ethos) involve serving the community, as well as providing information and entertainment. But while this is undoubtedly true, American TV stations are generally commercial in nature, and their main goal is to make a profit.

its long and gray with white buttons and it has 1 red button

No my local channels all but one that is broadcast in both analog and HD digital but they tend to black out a lot. But with a powered antenna the kind you plug into the wall i get a beautiful crisp clean HD picture you can pick a good one up for around 30-40 bucks but don't buy the cheap 15 dollar one's :)

No, it doesn't. If a TV does have a Digital Tuner then it will say so in the menu.

Diagonally across the screen. (From top left to bottom right, or top right to botom left.)

You need to change the source to DTV and then press MENU ... go to the INSTALL tab and select First Time Installation

No, Freeview is a terrestial service and receives its signal via a conventional UHF TV aerial. You may be interested in Freesat which is a recently launched service which provides a similar channel line-up to Freeview but via satellite.
