Hi,

I've just brought a new TV which was delivered today. I bought a Samsung UE42F5000 (http://www.samsung.com/uk/support/model/UE42F5000AKXXU) to replace a Samsung LE37R88BD. I did a quick hook up this afternoon but the picture quality hasn't really impressed me that much.

I went to the Tivo's video output settings and have 720p,1080i and 1080p (pass through) ticked. From ready other forum posts no UK provider broadcasts in 1080p only 1080i.

I' was having a look through the various settings but I have no clue what all of them mean. I was wondering if its the HDMI cable. The HDMI cable is astandard one that was giving to me when VM installed my Tivo.

Any help or tips on advised settigns greatly appreciated.
