    the standard definition is 480i. HD is 1080i. so when you watch SD on your 1080i HDTV, you are stretching the SD image to fit to HD dimension and that's why it looks grainy. Some HDTV handles SD better than others but native 1080i content always look better.

    • Not sure that further explains why my the TV looks more grainy when using the HDMI cable vs. the HD Cables.rodzilla
    • I thought the HDMI cables were supposed to give a better overall picture/sound?rodzilla
    • i think i misread something. HD cable usually shows more flaw when the signal is not high. maybe that's why.tkmeister
