Futurpilot asked:

I have a 37 inch Vizio HDTV and an S-cable. I’ve connected the computer to the TV via S-cable but there are no S-video inputs on the TV menu. I have component 1 component 2, HDMI 1 and 2, AV 1 and 2 but nothing for S-video. Can someone please help?

I’m considering buying a dish network non hdtv receiver to use with two of my television sets (also both non hdtv). Will this receiver be obsolete in two years or so when the switch is made to hdtv?

am asked:

I use to hook it up so it would work through my VCR and on channel 3. But now with HDTV I have to go to input and choose one of the many video options, but none work.

Will HDTV calibration extend the life of the TV and also reduce it’s power consumption?

It is a 60″ Pioneer Elite Plasma HDTV. The picture is awesome right out of the box so I’m not that concerned about enhancing the picture. But I am interested in reducing it’s power consumption and extending the life of the TV if calibration will do this. A technician wanting to perform the service told me that it would.

I live in a mobile home park and the rules won’t allow any big antennas but I need an HDTV antenna are there any good low profile antennas? My nearest signals are about 40 miles away.
