You may have a 1080 tv but using a 720 video source, I know my tv when using the cable box, is a lower number since the box is not an HD box but my Roku delivers a full 1080 signal
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.This is not because of the HDMI cord that you just purchased. Your TV displays the signal as received. For example, 480i resolution is received from Standard Definition (SD) cable and DVD players, and 720p or 1080p resolution is received from High Definition (HD) sources, such as Blu-ray players. Therefore, you would need to adjust the video source for signal quality, and the TV settings for 120Hz.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Have you checked your TV settings? Also, some show/movies are not in 1080p/i and your TV will make the adjustment to w/e the highest it is for what your watching.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.That depends on the source that's providing your signal. It's a TV cable set top box you'll need to change the settings on the box to reflect 1080. If it's another source the same steps should occur. Plus be sure your TV supports 1080. Another thing to consider is if your source is a PC the video card may not support 1080.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.It has nothing to do with the cable. You need to take a look at the settings on your TV, then make sure the broadcast source is in 1080P vice 720p. It's likely a setting on the TV, though.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Your cable provider may only broadcast in 720....
