Question Samsung 32" LCD TV >>> HELP?!?!? <<<<

Hi,
I have recently brought a New Samsung LCD TV (LE32R7).
I am very dissapointed with it, as the picture is very poor. I did for a while run it through a normal TV aerial. Picture wasn't very good but of corse I expected that.

But few days ago I have had SKY (digial box), installed into my spare room. But still the picture is very poor . It seems to be very pixulated and fuzzy.

I realy dont know as what to do? It should be a great picture as it is a HDTV and With the SKY digital box. Even my DVD's seem to be the same, and I have a top range DVD player and picture on that is also not good.

Could please someone recomend me as to what I should do.
Has the TV got a fault? Or is it just not setup right?

Any help is much appreaciated!
Thanks

I think, it also depends on the cable u use as well. For eg, to use the HDTV, u need to have a HDTV cable....

Did you check the manual of your TV? coz usually manual provides all the information on how u get the better picture.... Also try n contact with the manufaturer, i dnt know but if ur TV might come out faulty or something..

Ive read through every thingand doesn do anything. I figurd that the easiest way to find out is by trying it out wth the DVD player as it should always provide a very good picture. It also has the HDMI cable which is preety straight foward but nothing.
Meanwhile I'll try to get hold of the manufacturer

Not even a single percent..
You should try out a HD DVD on it as well (if there is any out in the market), coz that will make u completely sure that there is somthing wrong with the TV.

Buying a HDTV does not mean you will get a great picture (Sky, DVD), you also need to get SKY HD, only then you will get the great looking picture you are after. Sky HD costs extra £10/month, and costs around £300 for the HD Box.

Alternativly you can try to connect the tv to your computer and playing some HD material on it.

LCD's are designed for one particular resolution. If it's not at that resolution, the picture doesn't look as good. I don't know if there's independent controls for the various inputs or not, but you might want to check the manual to see what controls you have.
