  If you have an analog Cable/Set top box, upgrade to a digital set top box. Use HDMI to deliver HD (high definition) picture quality. Cable/Satellite subscribers: Try HD stations from the channel line up. Air/Cable Antenna connection: Try HD stations after performing Auto program. Adjust the Cable / Set top box video output resolution to 1080i or 720p.
