What do you mean - a non-HD channel through Sky HD to an HD-ready TV, an HD channel through Sky HD to a non-HD-ready TV or a non-HD channel through Sky HD to a non-HD-ready TV?

I mean how can you see HD ready clip on a non HD TV

If you can see HD on a Non HD TV what the point in Paying for HD Channels?

You cant even if a HD Clip is played you will still see it in Standard Def as far as i am aware

either that or you have come across some loophole in tv systems and we are all gonna ave a bundle lol

When you compare HD television to standard television you will see many differences, most of them are not noticeable from simply looking at the television set alone, but are noticeable when viewing cable programs broadcast in HD.

 

HDTV has twice the linear resolution when compared with standard television. This means that the viewer, when watching a show with HD, will notice many more details when compared with a viewer watching the same program with standard television.

 

HD television also uses more aspect ratio when compared to standard television. Aspect ratio is the displayed width divided by its height. High definition television will have an aspect ratio of 16:9 while standard television is 4:3. This basically means that viewing a television program with a higher aspect ratio will mean a clearer, more precise view of what is being shown when compared with a smaller aspect ratio.

High definition television will have an aspect ratio of 16:9 while standard television is 4:3.

Not entirely True as my Standard Def TV which is over 5 years old now is viewable in 16:9

ooooooooooooooouuuuuuuuu a Loophole free HD TV lol

Watching HD on a non-HD TV is a slight improvement. Watching HD on a TV that is HD is a significant improvement. For example, my brother-in-law hooked up his son's PS3 to his non-HD 42" plasma. My PS3 on my 22" HD-ready LCD TV is astounding in how much better quality it has; just by looking at the startup logo you can see a tremendous difference.

In case you think it's the size - my PS3 used to be hooked up to my parents' 52" plasma and that had about the same degree of quality difference compared to his TV.

HD TV is filmed using HD cameras, totaly different from normal or non HD cameras. Yes you can watch HD TV on a normal TV with an improved picture quality, however, using a HD TV with programmes recorded on HD cameras will give a much better viewing experience. To put it another way....there is no point having a really good sound card with rubbish speakers or really good speakers with a rubbish sound card. Hope this helps.

HD and 16:9 Ratio are completely different.

HDTV is a High Definition Television capable of showing 1080p footage. This is done through the HD technology. Also, you *MUST* use an HDMI cable to transfer this signal from a HD receiver to an HDTV. Otherwise, you will see SDTV (Standard Definition Television)

Standard Definition is transferred through Composite, Component, and S-Video cables. None of these cables are capable of transferring an HD signal. So let's throw some of these into examples.

I pay for HD programming. I have an SDTV. I hook up my HD receiver to my SDTV with a Composite/Component/S-Video and I see a standard definition picture.

I pay for HD programming. I have an HDTV. I hook up my HD receiver to my HDTV with a Composite/Component/S-Video and I see a standard definition picture.

I pay for HD programming. I have an HDTV. I hook up my HD receiver to my HDTV with an HDMI cable and I see a high-def picture.

Keep in mind:

• Just because you have a big 'flat screen' television, it is not HD ready.
• Just because your TV can change to 16:9 aspect ratio, it is not HD ready.
• Just because you hook up a HD receiver to a SDTV, you are not seeing Hi-Def picture.
