Why go HD? HDTV is the biggest breakthrough in broadcasting since color TV. It offers wider pictures with greater detail and the clarity of motion pictures. Compared to standard television (NTSC), the true HDTV image has twice the luminance - vertically and horizontally - and is twenty-five percent wider. Standard television aspect ratio is 4:3 (four units wide, three units high) - the HDTV aspect ratio is 16:9. The 16:9 ratio is is much closer to the average widescreen image shown in movie theaters. The biggest difference, and the greatest appeal of HDTV is its clarity. While it is possible to see the lines that make up standard television pictures, HDTV lines are not at all noticeable. The fine-grained HD picture contains five times more information than does the standard television picture and is accompanied by multi-channel, CD quality sound. The difference in video and sound quality is dramatic!

In order to receive High Definition channels, you must have an HD Converter, DVR Converter or CableCARD for each television you wish to view these channels as well as a subscription to Full Basic cable and an HD ready TV. Additional premium subscriptions or pay service may be required for certain channels. Off-air HD channels do not require a converter box, however your TV must have a built in HD tuner.
High Definition video requires an HD ready TV, meaning your TV must have an input for either component, HDMI or DVI cables. HD Converters have the ability to output HD video in 1080i or 720p format. Not all programming will be broadcast in high definition.
Video OnDemand service is not compatibe with CableCARD.
Video OnDemand and High Definition service may not be available in all areas. To check for availability, please click here.
