Bad quality on HD TV
Sometimes it happens that an HD television also has poor picture quality. There are several reasons for that. It's rarely the TV set.
It can lead to great disappointment if you have bought a modern HD television and can still only enjoy moderate to poor picture quality. You should try to find out what is causing this problem.
Sometimes an HD television has poor picture quality too
- First of all, you should keep in mind that an HD television alone is not a guarantee of good picture quality. The appropriate receiver is much more important. This must be able to receive programs in HD quality.
- If you then have a corresponding receiver, you should not connect it to the television with a Scart cable. That would also lead to poor image quality. A so-called HDMI-cable.
- You should also set the highest screen resolution in the receiver. This is the only way to ensure that you can really enjoy HD.
- If you have poor picture quality on your HD television despite correct connections and settings, it may be due to an incorrectly aligned antenna or satellite dish.

Bad picture quality with old films
- Even on the most modern HD televisions, old films have poor picture quality. Unfortunately, this cannot be changed.
- You should also keep in mind that not all TV channels can be received in HD quality. For some private broadcasters, HD reception is chargeable. To do this, you need to get a so-called HD + card. The card is similar to a credit card. It is plugged into the slot provided for it on the receiver or on the television set.
- Most HD + cards are prepaid cards and cost around 50 euros per year.
With the appropriate devices and the appropriate settings, you should no longer have poor picture quality on your HD television. If the problem cannot be resolved at all, it is better to have a professional come over to check it. Of course, there can also be a technical defect.
