Bad picture with Sky HD

    We have had sky plus for past 2 years, always with a perfect picture. We have a 42" Samsung Hd ready tv...about 3 years old. Other people with Sky themselves would come to our house and comment on the great picture. Anyway, a few weeks ago we upgraded to the HD box, and since then the picture has been nowhere near as good. The background is all blurry at times and it is really noticeable at night time when the room is dark. It was connected to the tv with just a HDMI cable, so I connected up the Scart again to see would it make a difference...it didn't. We don't have the HD pack, so would it make a difference whether I watch it through the scart or HDMI? Also the teletext only works through the scart...is this right? Would it have something to do with a dodgy HDMI cable, or has anyone any suggestions?

    Do you also have a terrestrial maerial connected to the SKY HD box.

    If so, are the terrestrial channels bad too or just the satellite channels

    Try:

    1. Services -> Settings -> Picture and set 'HD Resolution Output' to 'Automatic' (I use 1080i and picture is fine on my 42" Panasonic)

    2. Try another HDMI port if you have one

    3. Try another HDMI cable
