Re: Just Discovered Something
Thanks easyjay. Never even thought about changing the CoStar resolution setting. I'll have to try it out later today with my newer Vizio HDMI capable set. I'll report back..... This Hitachi tv I'm using as my main tv has been a gem. No repairs at all in almost 10 years, and it's a projector bulb lcd...

Re: Just Discovered Something
Ok after further investigation and troubleshooting, the problem is the copy protection from the CoStar. If I take it out of the loop and hook the HDMI port from my DirecTv box directly through the above converter box to the tv via component cables the picture and sound is good. But add the CoStar in...

Re: Just Discovered Something
Thanks guys. Have to do some thinking on this. Don't want to spend too much as the current tv is almost 10 years old.
I figure a couple more years at most for it. It's a Hitachi 50" LCD, early HD tv

Re: Just Discovered Something
Thanks, bookmarked. Now the quest to find out if the Co-Star supports the digital signal conversion output spec.
Maybe someone on here will speak up....

Just Discovered Something
Ok, expecting a Co-Star to show up on my steps any day now. Just discovered something though. I went to look at the HD TV I was planning on hooking it up to and discovered the TV doesn't have any HDMI hookup capability. So question is, does anyone make a HDMI to component hookup converter? Frustrated!
