Problems That Commonly Arise With an HDTV
Anyone that owns a HDTV has more than likely had a few problems with image quality such as images breaking up into pieces; fast moving objects are not clear, unnatural skin tones, and white lines around objects.
These are just a few of the most common image problems HDTV owners complain about all the time.
Let's see how to solve some of these issues.
Images breaking up into pieces is nothing more than the HD program breaking up into pixels and then going back to the way it should be.
This happens due to the low-level digital signal dropping in and then out.
This could be the result of the broadcast station or other technical issues with the service company.
The first step is to talk with your service provider to learn if the DTV signals are strong if not then you can easily purchase an inline amplifier and a preamplifier that will aid in boosting signal strength.
When fast moving objects are not clear is due to the broadcaster or even your service.
The only way to fix this problem at this time is to spend more money, quite a bit more, on an outboard noise processor.
If you can wait, this problem will be eventually corrected when improvements are made in compression technology.
Don't worry it will not be that long, as fast as this technology is zooming.
If the skin tones or other colors are not natural looking, the problem is from the settings of the HDTV.
When you get the HDTV home, the settings are factory settings, which have been optimized for the showroom and not your home.
Use the picture menu and change the settings to suit your needs.
If you notice white lines around all kinds of things in the movie or during your favorite show, more than likely the sharpness of the set is too high.
