Which method should I go with for my HDTV to get HD programming?
I have Comcast digital cable so should I
A. Pay $5.00 a month and get the HD box and HD channels (I don't need a HDMI if I do this right?)
B. Pay $10.00 a month and get the HD DVR along with the HDMI cable for best picture
C. Get an HDMI cable and a HD Antenna and call it today.
D. Get an HDMI cable
I don't know much about what to do so any help is appreciated.
Answer:
HDMI is just a cable. It combines video and audio in one cable.
So, option A, an HDMI is not required, but if the box has an HDMI port, get it.
Option C. You connect the antenna directly to your TV. You don't need any cable.
Option D: A cable without an HD source is not going to help you much.
Winner: Option B. Paying $5 extra for the PVR function is really worth it. You can record your shows and watch them any time you want, plus you get instant replay, skipping commercials, etc. Consider going with Dish Network. If you qualify for a promotion, you could equipment free or at a very good discount. You'll also get $20 off for 10 mos. if you go with HD programming. Dish also offers 30 channels in HD. If you decide to go with antenna and HDMI cable, I can get both at about 1/2 price over retailers. I would strongly recommend connecting your set to what every receiver/cable box using HDMI. The future that HDMI is offering is amazing, you will not need a Multi function remote as inter connectivity is built into the HDMI standard. Tell you DVD to play and HDMI will tell your Amp to power up, select DVD input and out to you TV automatically. As to spending the $100.00 the retailers want for HDMi cable, go to monoprice.com and get a great deal spending less than $20.00 for a 6 foot cable. It meet all the HDMI 1.2a specification (Monster Cable will not tell you what spec theirs meet, if any). The 1.3 spec cable will be available 1st quarter, however i doubt if any product on the market is being produced to meet that spec.
Want to learn where HDMI is going, take a on-line training course (free) at HDMI.org. These are the guys that are establishing the future. (I have no tie to either of the mentions sites/organizations) just a old fart who likes to stay up on technology.
