HDTV Basic cable service – tricks?
Firstly, who can tell me what this is http://cgi.ebay.com/DIGITAL-CABLE-BOX-FILTER-AMPLIFIER-FOR-HD-CATV-DVR_W0QQitemZ130205176229QQihZ003QQcategoryZ39803QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem Secondly, if I buy a box of high-definition cable on Ebay, I will get a high definition image with basic cable service? Would there be problems compatibility depending on the brand of cable box? If I have a coaxial input on my LCD TV and I must not connect a VCR between the cable entry and cable box?
First, that looks like a filter element cable. This filter is designed for people who have broadband Internet and cable TV coming into their homes on the same line, simply, the filter blocks the Internet, so it does not cause problems with the television signal. The ad claims may be legitimate, however, the TV image quality is affected by many factors (quality of the signal, "dirty power" from power lines Alternatively, the quality of the tuner / decoder, the quality of cable, etc), so I want to be sure I could return this item before buying one. Then, if you buy a box of high-definition cable, you will still need a high definition signal enters the picture box to HD. Most basic cable services do not offer high definition image. The HD cable box only decodes an input signal in high definition, and converts the image into an image-based in high definition. With this in mind, if you subscribe to an HD service, make sure the cable box you buy is compatible with your HDTV. Finally, for the use of a VCR for recording and playback in VHS, it is easier to connect a VCR between the TV and cable box, and not between the entry cable and cable box. The cable box must be connected to the cable input and often is necessary to correctly decode the incoming signal. (Of course, fortunately, there are alternative ways of doing things created to meet your preferences.) Hope this helps!
