Yeah you ARE too close…..8 to 12 feet….

NOW , you NEED HD…that’s what these TVs were built for…
NOT SD low-def TV shows…..

So stop watching 50 years of programming that is soooooo bad…..and sooooooo LOW DEF that you’ll commit yourself to only the prime-time shows recorded in HDTV……

That’ll give you 3-4 hours of viewing time all day long….

Are you only having the problem with your cable?(i.e. is a DVD or game system clear?) If you have a blurry screen with another component, then it’s your tv. You need to go through your menu and do a screen calibration. This lines up all three of your colors(red,green, blue) If they are off, it will be blurry. If you only have the problem with cable, I would check your cables first and see if you need better ones. If you just have a coaxial cable connected directly to your tv, you won’t have a great picture. You could get a high def box. This will give you high def on some channels but you don’t need this to have a good picture. I would suggest trying a regular digital cable box from comcast. If your cable box has a menu, see if you can adjust the picture from there. Good Luck

How close you sit should be irrelavant with either a plasma or LCD screen. Have you checked your cable box, input lines, HDMI cable? Does your viewing area currently provide HD TV? Six feet seems like it is a good distance, perhaps a tad close, but far enough to view. Sounds like a better question for a service tech. Sorry I can’t help more and good luck.

First off if your cable is not HD then that is the problem. If it is and u still feel that the picture is not as good as it could be u may want to buy a new high quality cable that connects from the cable box to the tv.

Projection TVs have a high intensity lamp as the light source. They wear out and gradually get dim. You probably need to replace it. Check the manual re how. Be warned, the price will floor you … several hundred dollars.

Read the article at the link in case there is something you have not been doing that you can do to extend the lifetime of the replacement lamp.

Comment on why is the picture quality on my new hdtv worse then my old anolog tv? It’s a vizio va220e lcd? by kg7or

The answer may lie in how you’re connected from your satellite receiver to your new TV. Satellite receivers typically have an analog output (selectable with ch. 3 or 4) for input into a VCR or the tuner of an old analog TV via its antenna jack. They’ll also usually have some combination of HDMI, component, S-video, and composite outputs.

Your new TV will work best with an HDMI (single cable with a flat rectangular plug) or component connection (blue-green-red video plus red-white audio).

If you’ve connected from your satellite receiver via its analog output jack to your TV’s antenna input jack, you’ll get the situation you’ve described. Modern HDTVs are designed for a digital input and must compromise an analog video signal in order to display it. That’s why watching an analog cable channel or VCR playback will often look better on an old analog TV than a new digital set.

Connect your satellite receiver as recommended above and select the appropriate input with your TV’s remote. You can then change channels with the satellite remote. That should solve it.

You need to be connected to your Direct TV receiver with a HDMI cable (get a Direct TV receiver that has a HDMI output) and subscribe to digital HD service from Direct TV. If you are not watching HiDefinition the quality of your pix is likely to be less than your analog TV.
