Do you really need a ATSC tuner built in with a VCR/DVD combo player?

i have a HDTV
but now im planning to buy a VCR/DVD combo player to go with my old fashion CRT TV because i don’t need a HDTV inside my room, I just need to watch old tapes and regular DVDs…I have cable TV so I don’t think the free to air channel would be a problem when it official changes to digital broadcasting in early 2009, I don’t think I really need to have a ATSC tuner built in with the player then?

my new hdtv with ATSC tuner says no DTV why?

. .DaveM123 asked:


So I had an old antenna lying around and set it up. Right off the bat I got 5 channels in “air” mode. These were not HD channels (quality was worse then regular cable) just local channels that I already got on my regular cable. When I mess around with the controller it says NO DTV right away. 2 questions: 1) I just have regular cable, how do I get DTV?
2) Do I need DTV to get HD?

I have a Mag/Phillips 51 MP6100D with int ATSC tuner & Dig cab tuner. How do I attach an external HDTV antenna

all1putts asked:


I’m not asking for a wiring diagram but if you could describe the sequence of the connections I would be grateful. BTW, I’m dealing w/75ohm coax on both the antennae (Zenith) and the cable connections. I don’t know exactly what inputs are available on the back of the set and/or whether I should connect the antennae to one of those inputs or go through the cable box. If I go directly into the set how will I access channels? Aren’t they somethig like 41.6. Needless to say I’m a newbie & need all the help I can get. Thanks in advance.

Will the basic cable picture be distorted on a HDTV?

Monday, March 1st, 2010
asked:


So I am buying an HDTV even though I don’t have HD box or anything. No point of buying a CRT TV at this day and age just cause I don’t get HD channels (I might in the future).

So right now I have basic cable with one CRT TV and one HDTV. I plan to use a splitter and connect the basic cable to both my TV. Question is how will the picture turn out on the HDTV? It says it has built in NTSC, ATSC, and QAM tuner. Is there any particular thing I should keep in mind before doing this?

I am clueless about: HDTV, ATSC/QAM Digital Tuner and CONVERTED BOXES…

Also, which will it be the best converted box to buy for this TV?

Or which tools will I need for this type of TV and the new programming?

I will really appreciate any great information…Thank you

How many channels are available on an ATSC tuner, and what FREQUENCY corresponds to each channel?

Friday, November 13th, 2009
Saturn 5 asked:


I am looking for a comprehensive listing of the new HDTV channels and the corresponding frequencies of each.

Are they all grouped in one large chunk of the spectrum, or are there multiple “bands” such as we now have with the NTSC broadcast channels?

Do all of the ATSC broadcast channels have the same bandwidth, or are there variations to allow for different content, complexity and / or quality?

Will some of the current frequencies be re-assigned to the new ATSC channels?

Thanks for your help.
