I reckon I found a excellent deal on a LG LCD HDTV but I’m not sure of the difficulty of installing the thing in my home. I would reckon it’s just like hooking up any other TV other than upgrading my cable box to HD. Any suggestions or help?
You don’t even need to upgrade your cable box to HD to use your new HDTV.
Just plug it in to the wall.
Connect the best available video output from your cable box which your TV supports (HDMI, component video, S-video, or regular RCA video, in that order) to your new TV.
Connect the best available audio output from your cable box which your TV supports (optical digital or regular RCA stereo, in that order) to your new TV.
Then delight in!
Your present cable box probably doesn’t have HDMI, and it may not have component video either. When you upgrade to HD cable, you’ll get one and/or the other. You should still be able to use your present cables, but you’ll have to buy a new video cable(s) to delight in the full benefits of higher resolution.



it is exactly the same. with more selections, depending on the TV it may have two or more component inputs, an HDMI and USB ports…..you really only have to use the ones that you need. just pay attention to where you are plugging stuff in…you should do fine

use hdmi from the cable box to the tv’s hdmi input, and plug the tv in. I recommend going into the cable boxes setup menu and selecting widescreen hd so it will output in the right format, and name your inputs on the tv through the tvs menu to make it simpler to switch around without getting confused. Excellent luck!
