Why don't I see any difference between sdt tv and HDtv even with an hd box(QIP620​0-2)

We upgraded from the std fois box to the hd fios box QIP6200-2) I flip between the regular tv broadcast and the same broacast on the hd channel and there is just a very suttle difference in the channels. is HD overrated or is something not connected correctly.
I have the cable in and have the HDMI cable from the box to the TV . 

You do have an HD TV don't you? If not you will never get a true HD picture, although with that STB you can watch HD channels (but not in true HD).
Have you gone into the Menu on the HD STB and set the Video Settings? It may be that the new STB is set to always output 480i or 480p instead of an HD signal.
Menu ==> Settings ==> Video Settings ==> Video Format ==> needs to be 720p or 1080i to get HD picture
I suggest you try both settings and see which looks better on your TV.
You might also want to look at the SD Override options, which take effect when watching SD channels. I prefer Off because switching from HD to SD or SD to HD takes 3-5 seconds if set any other way. But you may prefer some other setting.

    Why don't I see any option to rent films in iTunes? I only see the option to purchase

    Yeah I agree, especially when some movies cost a whopping $20!! Kinda ridddiculous. Hopefully Apple or the film producers will realize they can still make a profit - if not more - if they just let us rent! Ahh!
    Thanks again Jules and Happy New Year to u!!

  • Any differences between 2nd generation and 3rd genration i-touch

    any differences between 2nd generation and 3rd genration i-touch.
    thanks

    Game performance is about 10% faster with the 3g, and Apple claims overall speed is 50% faster - though it's hard to tell the difference in everyday usage. The 3g has faster wireless. Most important, the 3g has a maximum of 64gigs storage, which can be very convenient when you're juggling videos, mp3s, podcasts, and audiobooks.

  • Any difference between Master data and User master data ?

    Any difference between Master data and User master data ?

    hi
    A user master record defines the authorizations assigned to a user. Based on these authorizations one can access the master data.
    Master data - it is the data which is used long term in SAP r/3 system such as vendor master , material master, customer master,
    there is no such thing like user master data to the best of my knowledge
    hope this helps

  • Is there any difference between the iPod and the iPod hp?

    I'm new to iPods so forgive me if this is a foolish question but I've been thinking for a few weeks now about getting my daughter the shuffle. I bought the 1gb iPod shuffle hp today in Staples because they had it on sale but I'm wondering if there's any drawbacks to buying this one compared to buying it directly from Apple? As far as the electronics, is there any difference between the iPod and the hp iPod?

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    Electronically, there is no difference. The only difference comes in support. Apple allows you to call them for 90 days and one issue after you buy them, supporting windows and macs. HP will only help you if you are using a windows, however that support lasts one year. Keep in mind that if you need support, you'll have to go to an HP authorized repair center or another one of HP's options as the apple repair site and apple stores can't help in that regard.

  • Is there any difference between an unlocked and sim free iPhone?

    Is there any difference between an unlocked and sim free iPhone?

    I think in the context you're using, they are pretty much the same thing. The only carrier on the planet as of this writing with the CDMA iPhone, which does not use SIM cards AT ALL, is Verizon in the U.S.
    There is a difference between an unlocked iPhone and an iPhone sold without a contract, but still locked to a carrier.
    This list details all of the currently supported iPhone carriers. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1937
    Some carriers sell phones that are NOT carrier locked (i.e. SIM FREE). Some sell locked phones, but offer unlocking services for their subscribers. In SOME countries, unlocked phones can be purchased directly from Apple. Apple also sells locked phones, that do not require a term commitment with the carrier at what is usually the same price as an unlocked phone.

  • Any differences between inner join and join without any keyword(inner join)

    Are there any differences between following two join statements?
    Join Statement 1:
    select column1, column2 from table1 t1, table2 t2 where t1.t1Key=t2.t2Key;
    Join Statement 2:
    select column1, column2 from table1 t1 inner join table2 t2 on t1.t1Key = t2.t2Key;
    Thanks for your reply.

    Some people find it easier to read and understand one rather than the other. Personally, I find the ANSI syntax (JOIN ... ON ...) easier to understand. The join conditions that apply to each table are listed right next to the table; you don't have to hunt through a long WHERE clause to find them. Also, it makes debugging easier. If you forget the join condition, then you get a syntax error, pinpointing where you forgot the join condition. Using the old syntax, if you forget a join condition, you get a cross-join, and it may not be obvious that any error occurred, but even if you do notice the mistake, you have no clue where it happened.
    Join Statement 1:
    select column1, column2 from table1 t1, table2 t2 where t1.t1Key=t2.t2Key;This is the old join syntax. It works in all versions of Oracle (so far).
    Join Statement 2:
    select column1, column2 from table1 t1 inner join table2 t2 on t1.t1Key = t2.t2Key;This is the ANSI join syntax. It works in Oracle 9.1 and higher. The keyword INNER is optional.

  • Is there any difference between "jsp:useBean" and "scriptlet" ?

    A few days ago, I asked similar question. But I didn't get the answer I wanted.
    I want to know the differnce between <jsp:useBean../> and <% .. %>(scriptlet).
    I tested in three environments(Oracle Jserv, OC4J, and Apache Tomcat).
    In Oracle Jserv and OC4J, a problem occured. But, Apache Tomcat does not occur a problem.
    For example,
    1) TestClass.java (Bean)
    public class TestClass {
    private String txt;
    public class TestClass {
    txt = "Test"; ----- (g
    public String getTxt() {
    return txt;
    2) test.jsp
    <html><body>
    <% TestClass test = new TestClass(); %> ---(h
    <%= test.getTxt() %>
    </body></html>
    Assume that I visit "http://localhost:8888/test.jsp".
    In Tomcat, if I change "Test"(number(g) to "Test1" and compile the browser shows the change.
    But Oracle Jserv and OC4J does not do that. They also show the old String.
    So, I changed <% TestClass test = new TestClass(); %>(number(h) to <jsp:useBean id="test" class="TestClass" />. That is, I changed "Scriptlet" to "JSP useBean Tag".
    Then, Oracle Jserv and OC4J also show the changes.
    To conclude, is there any difference between "JSP useBean Tag" and "Scriptlet"?
    Can't I use a scriptlet (to make a class) in Oracle Servlet Engine?
    Thanks.

    It could be as simple as the JSP not recompiling between java recompiles - ie, it compiles in the link to the old class.
    Try changing the JSP file (add and delete a space) after you change the java code, and then see what happens.

  • Is there any difference between the iPad and iPhone cables?

    Alot of people are mentioning that there's difference with the speed while syncronising/backup. I am just wondering is there any difference between the cables? and how can I distinguish it? Coz I have most of the i- products and I have just mixed up all the cables >__< Thank you!

    I can confirm that iPad/iPod cables are identical. Don't know about iPhone. IF there is a difference, you'll know immediately - function or functions won't work.
    There will be NO speed difference. Either the copper is present or it isn't and copper is copper.

  • Are there any difference between iPhone 4S and iPhone 5? What are they?

    What I already know is that iPhone 5 has a larger screen and is slimmer, but are there any difference between the two.  I have iPhone 4S now, should I buy iPhone 5?

    There are a number of major differences between iPhone 4S and iPhone 5, the major one being the processor speed.  iPhone 5 has a much faster processor – two times faster than the processor in iPhone 4S.  This difference is only significant if you use your phone to play high graphics games that require a lot of processing power.  This processing speed also makes the applications load and run faster – iPhone 5 even boots in a shorter time than iPhone 4S.  You can use iPhone 4S comfortably now but when games and graphic apps designed for iPhone 5 are released, you may be forced to upgrade your phone to run the smoothly.

  • Why don't I see any of my application's classes in Mission Control?

    Hi Forum,
    My system: JRockit JVM version R28.0.0-679-130297-1.6.0_17-20100312-2123-windows-ia32, Oracle® JRockit Mission Control 4.0.0 (M4.0.0-20, 130319); JAX-WS annotated Web Services; EJB 3.0 annotated SLSBs;
    When either analyzing the live remote WLS/OSB server through JRMC's management console, or viewing a previously-dumped jfr file in JRMC, how come I don't see any of my application's classes in any of the various traces (memory, gc, events, etc.)?
    The application's architecture is basically:
                             OSB
         (proxies, xquery transformations, biz svcs)
                              |
                             WLS
               (jms, jax-ws, ejb, jdbc, jaxb)                         I've created and viewed a couple dozen jfr recordings. I've patiently trawled the management console traces. But I've yet to see any of my application's classes; nor any of the classes from the apis I've listed in my "WLS" layer above (jms, jax-ws, ejb, jdbc, jaxb).
    All I ever see in JRMC's management console or in my flight recordings are either classes at the OSB infrastructure-related, or WLS container-related classes. Plus, of course, the usual JDK classes.
    Based on the "Shows classes that take up more than 0.5% of the heap..." label I've seen displayed on the "Object Statistics/Heap Contents" tab, I've been assuming that my applications classes (plus those other api classes above) just don't take up more than half a percent of the heap. Is that right? If so, then that's "a good thing"! Right?
    If I've assumed incorrectly, please can anybody fill me in on where to look, or how to see more application-related classes?
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Hi,
    That sounds really strange, I can't imagine how some classes could be filtered out. There is no filtering mechanism built into the JVM, the Management Console or Flight Recorder.
    Are you 100.00% sure you are connected to the right JVM and that your application has loaded correctly?
    I've been assuming that my applications classes (plus those other api classes above) just don't take up more than half a percent of the heap. Is that right? If so, then that's "a good thing"! Right?
    There is a cut off around 0.5%, if it's good or bad thing depends on what your application is supposed to do :)
    If you want to see all classes with the exact count you can use the Memory Leak Detector, but you have to go to Window -> Preferences-> JRockit Mission Control->Memory Leak Detector->Trend and set the instance count threshold to zero.
    Best regards
