We have a brand new Samsung LNT4053H 40″ LCD HDTV which comes with an ATSC tuner. We have to move to India soon and were wondering if the tuner would be able to pick up signals that are broadcasted in PAL or DVB. If not, are there convertors available? Thanks!

Has anyone gotten the HDTV cable signal and still been able to hook up their older TVs without a Converter Box

bjmarchini asked:


I get basic cable, because that is all I really watch. I am thinking of picking up a new 37″LCD TV with both an ntsc and atsc tuner. The ones I am looking at can handle over the air HD digital broadcasts. If I upgrade to the high definition digital cable, will i not be able to connect the rest of my tvs to the cable. I also have a media center PC with a analog tv tuner too. I like the idea of hooking up and watching HDTV but I will lose the ability to jsut plug in the rest of my TVs and devices, I think. I have seen how they look without the higher definition….

Since it is basic, I just run it straight into my current TV without a converter box.

Has anyone gotten the HDTV cable signal and still been able to hook up their older TVs without a digital Converter Box?

HDTV vs HD “Ready” TV?

Monday, December 14th, 2009
Peter e asked:


Is there any difference between HDTV and HD-Ready?
If I have a satelite HD receiver, will I need an ATSC tuner, or is that only for over the air. My TV is a SONY 42 inch LCD rear Projection. Do I need to purchase a tuner for the tv or will the Satelite receiver and HDMI cables take care of bidness?

Thanks
