    Hi all
    Just want to be sure about this TV as its on it way but i may have made a mistake

    This tv has a resolution of(horizontal x vertical - in pixels) 1920 x 1080.

    Does this automatically mean its FULL HD.

    Its just its not list on the site as being FULL HD.

    Edit
    Oh CRAP Oh CRAP Oh CRAP
    It s listed as High Resolution WTF does that mean?

    Are you asking about the tuner and if it will display HD broadcast programmes?

    EDIT: Did a little online research and found your Philips telly and it has both NTSC for analog and ATSC for HD (digital) programming, so you should be OK and not need an adapter box for the HD signal.

    Thanks for you work blue lagoon but I m a littleconfused about the tuner.

    I thought a HD tv would display any HD signal as long as it came from a HD source Eg Blu Ray Sky HD etc.
