What is the maximum length of a VGA cable?
There are two factors that greatly affect the image quality. One is the VGA driver - the display card. Many are designed to drive only short distances and do not perform well above 10 to 20 feet. The other is the cable itself. VGA is a high resolution video signal and demands a properly designed cable to carry it over a long distance. Many short VGA cables do not comply with the transmission standards for long distances. They work over a length of 5 feet or so but for long distance transmission, 75 ohm co-ax cable is needed for each of the red, green and blue signals.
Given a proper video driver in the display card, several hundred feet is possible if the right grade of video cable is used to carry the signal. This type of cable is not a standard product in most cases, so it will need to be made to order. Standard cables over 100 feet are rare.
The LCD (Lowest Common Denominator) of 7 and 9 is 63.
What is wrong with a TV if the power light is on but there is no picture or sound?
Maybe the wire that connects to your T.V. from a DVR or other picture receiver is loose, hooked-off, or not on right.
Also, try jiggling all connections and testing them out individually. Hopefully the screen isn't broken. If it is an older cathode ray tube monitor, the bulb might be broken. If it is a flatscreen, it is probably a circuitry or logic board problem. hopefully, it is just a problem with the wires.

How come Samsung 3D TV s have flickers if they are so expensive?
Check batteries in the glasses and make sure the glasses are properly paired to the television. Make sure they are set up according to the manufacturer's instructions and the flicker is likely to be eliminated.
True
it's not necessarily better. it is brighter than lcd, which is why contrast ratios shoot up well over the 150k:1 ratio for lcd. they are also incredibly thin and lightweight. true led TVs, or oled TVs have each individual pixel lit up, while most consumer led TVs use fluorescent light bars to produce a picture. this lets them show more colors and be a bit better for darker colors. however the leds lose a lot of viewing angle when vied from the side.
Is satellite TV clearer than cable TV?
Satellite TV is a huge style dish made in the 90's usually but is the same as Dish Network and Directv. Also Satellite TV is another way of bringing you your network and local and favorite channels without having to pay a corporate company such as Cableone or Classic or COX or Cambridge.
Dish Network and Directv or DTV.. the differences in these two are simple... Basically here's the deal Dish Network runs of 6 Great Huge Satellites but only uses 2 to 3 depending on your local stations. Directv uses 4 satellites but they are overloaded with 20 million customers and cause Directv to pixelate or lose signal while Dish Network can hold 20 million and not pixelate or lose signal. Another huge deal between them are the dishes and storms. Dish Net can withstand 100mph winds and still not lose a signal DTV can withstand 100mph and lose signal constantly... The main deal here is the design of the dishes the switches and such and also a main factor is who installed them and the ends..
Price, channel choice, how many trees to cut down. Ask the suppliers, they will answer your questions faster then this forum.
Lets not forget the free to air sats, They offer alot of good stuff to watch that is free and i mean free(sports and education are the bulk here)
Here is a website you can reference comparing the two. http://www.dishtvreviews.com/

LCD

LCD LED
White LED's placed behind the LCD screen

Light emitting diodes. Light is generated by passing current across a PN junction of specially doped material, which causes electrons to change valence level and emit light.
How do you set your cable box from 480 you to 1080i?
If the HDTV is the 1080p type, it should switch automatically.

Can you play an HD DVD in a Blu-ray player?
The introduction of high definition discs saw two formats launched. Bluray is one and HD DVD was the other. The format war was won by the Bluray system and HD DVD was withdrawn in 2009.
Both Bluray and HD DVD are high definition players but note that "HD DVD" is the name of the format and is confusingly close to the generic description of high definition disc players.
Bluray and HD DVD are not compatible so a disc of one type will not play on the other format. There are a handful of dual format disc players but they were expensive and few were sold. If you have HD DVD discs then you need to hand on to an HD DVD player if you want to watch them. All high definition discs on sale now are Bluray and of course will need a Bluray player to play them.

Sony Blu-ray player do you need HDMI cables to have better quality?
You can also use the component cables (the 5 cables with the green, blue etc) This will make it in 1080i. The naked eye can tell zero difference between 1080p & 1080i. The p stand for progressive & the i for interlaced. Both are high quality HDTV. The HDMI & 1080p is newer & considered to be the best though.
HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is the brand new A/V solution that brings a whole new entourage of features to your home theater. You do not have to worry about cables getting tangled, since a HDMI cable is compacted of audio and video interface that is transmitted within one cable.
It transmits high-definition video signals up to 1080p resolution, and 5.1 surround sound audio including the high-definition audio formats available on Blu-ray.

Is there a remote code for Olevia 232?
Such codes are generated by the universal remote manufacturer rather than the TV manufacturer. As such, the actual codes will differ from one remote to another. Regretfully, Olevia TV's (for the most part) use proprietary infrared frequencies. This means that the code for another TV brand will not work with Olevia TV's. If you are looking for a universal remote, Olevia made a learning remote (model RC-LRN). Amergence Technology Inc. sells them for 39.99. They can be reached at 866-965-3842.
