Can anyone help me to fix it. The problem is more obvious on dark backgrounds, the shading looks ‘blocky’

Recently bought a 42″ LG LCD HDTV. Aside from purchasing a digital cable box, is there anyway to improve picture quality (thicker insulated coaxial, using an HDMI cable instead, etc)?

eddie b asked:


I have just bought a new LG LCD TV bu the picture is not as good as would have liked/expected? I have a Thomson Freeview box (which is absolute pants), which I run TV from but the aeriel coaxial cable is worn and will not improve on replacing it. I understand this may have an impact on the picture quality but when watching DVDs (Toshiba Digital Out), which I link to the TV via Scart, the picture is still not as clear as I would like. Would it be best to use component cables to link to the TV and would this improve the picture much? There is no DVI or HD-MI connection on the back of the DVD player. However there is on the TV. Can I then get a component to HD-MI cable for example to link the DVD and TV and would this improve it further (considering also the cost of the cable as an important factor).
Any thoughts on the above and also how I can improve TV (freeview) picture as well would be great. I have a small satellite dish (outdoors) Would this also be impacting the picture and if so what I can do which would improve the picture most without the most intervention/cost? Cheers

LCD HDTVs that I’ve checked out, have contrast ratios that range from 800:1 to 6000:1 with the models that have the lower contrast ratios seeming to be lower in price.
My main usage will be for DVD playback and as a computer monitor.
I am most interested in the models that range in size from 37-42″.
The 37-42″ models that I’ve seen have contrast ratio ranges of 1000:1 to 1600:1 with some modes by Samsung being as high as 6000:1.
With the exception of the newer models by Samsung, picture resolution is listed as displaying 480i & p, 720i & p with some models also listing 1080i.
Samsung has several models that list the resolution as high as 1080p, which I am told is the highest picture resolution at this time.
From what I uncderstand, there is very little video technology and content to take advantage of the 1080p rating.
Along with the contrast ratio, what does this mean to regular DVDs and players; also TV viewing that the only way to get TV is via the cable company?
