Store displays are all tuned to digital, HD (high definition) channels.
If you have an analogue cable/set top box, upgrade to a digital set top box. Use
HDMI or Component cables to deliver HD (high definition) picture quality.
Many HD channels are upscaled from SD (Standard Definition) content. Look for a
channel that is broadcasting true HD content.
Cable/Satellite Subscribers: Try HD channels from the channel lineup.
Air/Cable Aerial Connection: Try HD channels after performing the Auto Tuning
operation.
Adjust the cable/satellite box's video output resolution to 1080i or 720p.
Make sure you are watching the TV at the minimum recommended distance based
on the size and definition of the signal.
The compression of video content may cause picture distortions, especially in fast
moving pictures such as sports and action movies.
A weak or bad quality signal can cause picture distortions. This is not an issue
with the TV.
Mobile phones used close to the TV (within 1m) may cause noise in analogue and
digital channels.
If you're using a Component connection, make sure that the component cables are
connected to the correct jacks. Incorrect or loose connections may cause colour
problems or a blank screen.

minutes.)
