I don't know if this is the correct Forum but here goes.
I have a SONY KDL-32V2000 and a SKY HD box. Now I know the TV is only HD Ready but it was the recommended combi when SKY started their HD service.
Problem; I honestly can't see any difference between HD and non HD. There is a slight difficulty I have with the HDMI standard and I might comment on that later.
I did have the SCARTs connected up from the SKY HD box as well as the HDMI connection. At the SONY shop they advised that I didn't connect them and just have the HDMI connection on AV4 which I now have.
At the SONY shop they told me that the SKY box doesn't upsacle. Is that correct? I can set the output in the menu at 3 different "levels" up to 1080i (which is what I have it set at).
Now in all honesty if I go between a HD channel and a non HD channel (i.e SKY 401/408 SKY Sports 1 and SKY Sports 1HD) I see no difference in the picture. Do I need to go to SpecSavers? Is 32" to small to see HD improvements? Am I doing something stupid? Am I stupid? (there is no need to answer the final question!!)
Now if the clever people out there can help me I will be very grateful.
I do have a slight other problem. That is why was HDMI never made switchable like SCART. When I switch on I need two Remotes. I switch the TV on and it goes to the internal tuner. When I turn my SKY box on I need to use the source change button on my SONY TV remote to go to the AV4 input. When I turn the SKY box of the TV just sits there with no picture. This of course was never a problem with SCART.
Thanks all.
