HDTV

With PlayStation 2 Component AV Cables or with Playstation PS2 AV Audio / Video Cable for 480i standard TV

An Insignia plasma tv will last as long as any other set...that is until it breaks.

Thanks for the question.

Digital television boxes will be sold in typically any electronic store in Calgary. For example, you can find some of these digital v boxes in Walmart.

Yes, depending on what you are planning on connecting to your television. If the device you are connecting has an HDMI output, HDMI is the only connection you will need. HDMI carries high definition audio and video.

CRT: Advantages: Cheap to buy, Cheap to fix, not too complicated to hook up peripherals (such as DVD players), Easy setup, when they go out just spend another $200 or so to buy a new one Disadvantages: Heavy to carry, bulky, picture quality not as good as a plasma HDTV, low resolution, low quality sound, small viewing area for widescreen DVD's, low picture quality for fullscreen DVD's, subject to glare PLASMA (HDTV) Advantages: Superior picture and sound, picture clarity equivalent to a computer monitor, light, easy to carry Disadvantages: Expensive to buy, expensive to fix, can be a complicated setup, accessories to go with the tv can get expensive, lots of options to consider when buying the tv

The range of expected life range for projector lamps is 750 to 6000 hours with an average of 2000 hours.

You can't covert from one standard to the other. If the HDTV is a 1080 type, it will display that signal when present and display a 720 when it is present. A 720 HDTV will never display a 1080 resolution picture, it will show the picture in 720 resolution.

You need an HD-capable display to see HD. You may not need an HDMI cable to watch in HD quality, if your source has the ability to display 1080i video through component video cables. All new Blu-Ray players coming out now have been changed so that HDMI is the only way to get high-definition (1080i or 1080p) video.

The Frenchman Louis Lumiere and his brother were the first to project, moving, pictures to an audience In 1895. But the first projector patented in the United States was patented by William Lincoln in 1867.

NTSC AND PAL BASICALLY REGION CODE

PAL = UK/EU

NTSC= US/Japan

I DONT WANT TO CONFUSE BUT THERE IS ONE MORE CALLED SECAM IN FRANCE

Sony sells Blu ray players for many times the cost of the PS3 because there are differences in the models

I'm having the same problem after buying another 46 in smart tv. I'm leaning towards learning the stock market and monitoring stocks on one, otherwise I might set it up to play download and manage music and photos from a pc or mac if could afford one.

Most laptops are now equipped with a DisplayPort interface (or similar) which, with the correct adapter, may be connected to televisions with an HDMI or DVI interface.

Older laptops may have an S-Video connection (analogue audio/video), or simply a DVI port. If your television has an S-Video port, you may use this for standard definition audio/video. Alternatively, using an adapter, the DVI port may be connected via the HDMI interface on a newer television.

When using a DVI connection, you must provide an alternative connection for audio, as unlike HDMI, DVI does not carry audio. This can be problematic when using a DVI-to-HDMI adapter, as most consumer televisions provide no way to map separate audio and video sources to the same channels, or for mixing analogue and digital sources.

Some televisions also include VGA connections, though they do not tend to provide high-definition output (despite VGA having more than adequate bandwidth) as they expect XGA standard input (1024x768). If a VGA interface is available on your television, there will normally be an audio jack interface for audio too.

DVI-I ports on computer equipment provide piggy-backed analogue connectivity (unlike digital-only DVI-D interfaces) via a DVI-to-VGA adapter. To determine which type of interface is provided should be as simple as looking at the port.

If the port includes a cross-shaped 'hole' (i.e- if it looks like [+::::::] ), it is usually DVI-I, though some cheaper graphics cards manufacturers have been known to use the DVI-I port on a DVI-D interface, possibly in order to trick consumers into buying an inferior product. If it is more like a hyphen ( [ - ::::::] ), it is definitely DVI-D and can only be connected to a digital interface (such as DVI or HDMI).

Yes, you can operate two TVs from a Time Warner cable box by using a splitter. However, both TVs would need to display the same channel since the cable box can only output one signal at a time. Alternatively, you can use a second cable box if you want to watch different channels simultaneously on each TV.

Freeview is the digital terrestrial television service for the UK and is replacing analog broadcasting. The changeover is being phased and will be complete by 2012.

Any UK television on sale should have a digital receiver incorporated now. Although there may be one or two exceptions, no reputable dealer will stock televisions that do not have a digital receiver.

The same should be the case worldwide wherever a digital conversion has happened or is happening.

But... There will be some very rare exceptions so make sure you ask the question before handing over cash to the salesman.

A Freeview set top box is a digital television receiver for use in the UK and delivers analogue signals at the output, for use with analogue televisions. All Freview receivers have video and audio outputs and normally these are found on a scart connector, the European multi-pin AV interface. If a television has no scart connector, it may be possible to use separate video and audio connectors, normally phono or RCA sockets. If the television doesn't have any kind of video input, then the only option is to use the RF connection. Not all Freview units have an RF output. If the Freeview signal must be taken into the television, then the receiver must have the output signal encoded to RF. Note that some Freeview receivers have an RF output but only to loop through the antenna signal and do not deliver the digital programme to the RF output. To be sure that it will work, you must ask the question "does the output of this receiver feed the RF output?" Remember that many salesmen will not know the answer to this, may say yes to get the sale and you get a unit that doesn't work. If that happens, you are fully entitled to return the unit and get a FULL refund as long as you asked the question before you bought it. (The Sale of Good Acts make complete provision for this). This isn't meant to be an attack on salesmen by the way but I have a big problem with poorly trained sales staff gicing out incorrect information!

Probably not. It's a vacuum chamber and when it cracked, it let air into the envelope.

The again, if it's still working, your TV may have a plastic cover over the screen to protect it.

One thing I do know first hand, is that the cost of the screen replacement will probably be more than the cost of the TV itself. I'd suggest you use your home owner's insurance and replace it. You'd be much better off.

Channel 10 or 11. It depends on your services.

Yes it will. Sweden uses the same voltage/frequency as the UK (230v/50Hz). However - in order to view TV channels in the UK - you will need a digital set-top box for digital television. All the old analogue transmitters are now switched off.
