If you only got your HDR yesterday, I think the only HD prog on ITV last night was Boy meets Girl. The Blues Brothers film this afternoon is in HD for you to test. On BBC, are you looking at BBC HD Channel on CH108, not on BBC1 on Ch101? Just a thought. On my 46" Sony Bravia LCD it's as different as chalk and cheese. Rgds. Les. |

It shows the optimum distance for a 26" TV watching at 1080i/p is 40.8 inches. There will be other opinions on these distances, but 40" and 2/3 metres is a big difference. Rgds. Les. |
