| 1187793 | 2011-03-20 17:30:00 | Hi guys, I have a 40" Sharp Full HD LCD TV with a built-in Freeview HD decoder. Looks and sounds great but I have a question... Why does the picture from the analogue signal (terrestrial UHF) appear to be brighter than the picture received via the digital signal (terrestrial UHF). When I am on the Analogue TV setting the picture is much brighter but if I switch to the Digital TV setting the picture appears a lot less brighter but clearer and sharper. Mrs Chief believes because of this that the analogue picture is better than the digital one? I have tried adjusting the brightness, colour and contrast settings for the digital setting but this makes no difference? Should it be this way? Any thoughts... Thanks, |

I actually got up on the roof and removed the VHF aerial so the only analog TV I can now receive is prime because it's UHF. Not helpful really but maybe have a read through the book? my sony has a button that selects various preset modes such as theatre, sports etc - some of these are very bright indeed. |

Altho it probably doesnt help that the outside aerial doesnt have any prongs / whatever you call on it lol. Just the aerial bit screwed to the side of the flat But when I can be bothered buying / installing Win7, I'll probably stream it thru the Xbox, so I can connect it to the TV. To save me buying a decoder |

| 1187796 | 2011-03-22 08:09:00 | Problem solved... I just changed the AV mode from stadard to Dynamic fixed and the picture became bright but the clarity and sharpness was preserved. It's like a preset mode for the type of media you're watching, I have options for gaming, movies etc. Thanks for the replies. Cheers, |
