On my Samsung TV there is an auxiliary control system called Anynet that provides automatic operation of an external device (and vice versa). In my case, I have a Samsung upscaling DVD player that does what you want to do with your Sony. I just turn on the DVD player, insert a DVD, and the...

There aren't many possibilities for compensation. Best Buy offers a credit against future Best Buy purchases if you turn in an old TV. Don't know about smaller devices; you could ask. Whether that would beat what you might get from a pawn shop is hard to say. If you come up zero--no one will...

MTV is available on satellite and cable services. Also related services like AT&T U-Verse and FIOS. All of them are digital, except you may find an analog version on basic cable (no set top box). It's not available as a free over-the-air channel.

A power converter that outputs 110-120 volts a.c. at 60 Hz will be fine. What may or may not be fine is a less expensive power transformer that drops the U.K. line voltage from 220 to 110 volts, but doesn't change the frequency, which is 50 Hz for them. Your device may be okay with 110 volts...

Yes and no. In the first place, there is no such thing an an HD antenna. A TV antenna is a TV antenna, period. No antenna cares whether the signal it receives is analog or digital, it works exactly the same way. Now, assuming your plasma TV is an HD set, your cable is an obvious source for...

Change your connections this way: 1. From your cable box directly to your TV: use the cable box component output jacks (5 cables) or better, an HDMI cable if the box and your TV have HDMI jacks. You'll get far better video, especially if you've subscribed to an HD channel package. 2...

Not really. For example, on a large screen LCD HDTV, an analog signal won't look as good as it does on a smaller screen analog TV. On the other hand, an over-the-air digital channel in the U.S., received via a set top converter on an old analog TV, can look a lot better than the former analog...

It will, but you need a very good antenna for over-the-air (OTA) digital TV reception in the U.S. That's an excellent set, so you won't want to cut corners on the antenna. Get the best you can afford, and if you're in a good signal area, you'll enjoy excellent HD on your Hitachi. See the...

It would help a great deal to know what your "flat screen HD TV" is (make and model). If you bought it in the U.S. recently, it has the tuner (and the antenna jack) for the new over-the-air (OTA) digital channels. If it's an older "digital ready" HD monitor with no built in tuner (commonly...

This is really hard to answer with the limited information you've supplied. But the first thing to check is your input. For example, if you have an antenna connected to your coaxial antenna jack, your set must be switched to that input, or you will get something besides a nice picture and...

Okay, my turn to ask a question for a change. I've uploaded an image in order to change the profile photo in my Yahoo Answers profile. When I look at the profile, the new image is there. But the image doesn't appear with any of the new answers that I post, nor with any of the existing ones...

First thing I'd want to try is to check that the TV is optioned for cable channels rather than over-the-air channels (they're not the same). Even if no one made any changes on the set, strange things can happen. On almost any modern set, this option is selected from the menu via your remote...
