QuestionUnder external inputs/HDMI signal format it says "enhanced" to display HDR but only inputs 2 & 3? Does this refer to devices such as DVD players etc. or do I need to change my current dish hopper hdmi from input 1 to get 4k/HDR for normal tv viewing?
Asked 8 years ago by Rob.
- Answer Hi Rob, It will depend on the specifications of the connected device. HDMI 2 and 3 ports are designed to handle High-Quality HDMI formats (4K 60p 4:2:0 10bit, 4:4:4:, 4:2:2 etc.). Lower HDMI formats will work on all HDMI ports.

QuestionI just recently purchased the Sony 55” 55X800E at Best Buy. This replaced an Insignia 32” TV. The picture quality of the Sony is poor compared to the Insignia. Fuzzy colors and the images are not crystal clear. Not like the TV in store. Any ideas?

- Answer You are looking at the insignia. Turn on the Sony and you will see the difference.
