Buying an HDTV: Five Critical Steps to Success

No Comments →

Buying an HDTV can seem an intimidating task. There are so may
different types on the market, with so many different features and specifications that just knowing where to start can cause headaches. However, it doesn’t need to be painful. By following the five steps below, you can make buying an HDTV easy and even pleasurable until the credit card bill arrives, of course.


1. Check the resolution
If you’ve done any research into HDTV, you’ll know that the HDTV specification
covers two resolutions: 720 lines and 1080 lines. So any TV which claims to be
HDTV ready must have a native resolution which has at least 720 lines (this is

TV is HDTV ready. The HDTV specification states that high definition TVs must
support 16:9 widescreen signals (where the width of the picture is 16/9 its height).
That means that in order to display a signal with 720 lines, a TV must have a
horizontal resolution of at least 1280 pixels (720 divided by 9 and then multiplied
by 16)A TV with a vertical resolution of 768 pixels, should have a horizontal
resolution of 1366 pixels.

No Comments →

Changes are coming in the world of television. Traditional over-the-air television broadcasts will cease on February 18, 2009 and all stations will broadcast digitally.

The digital switch over will occur in order to free up those portions of the broadcast spectrum, which traditional analog broadcasts currently occupy, for use by wireless and broadband services.
