I would like to see what happens if you put one of those $10,000 cables on Quibids (which has to be the most lucrative legal scam I've ever heard of).

Thanks, Tony. They came yesterday, and I hooked one up to Fios. On the tv was a message that said something like "your display is not authorized to recieve high quality digital signal". When I turn it on, it says 1080, and I've been using component video for the 4 weeks we've owned it.

What The F?

It's not the "you are not subscribed" message?

I plugged it in again, to get the exact wording, and it worked. I don't get it, but I'll take it.

With our comcast you have to subcribe extra for HD 'digital' programming, of course it all comes down the cable digitally, they just only give you analogue outputs if you don't pay the extra.

Is this what you're seeing, your box knows you are making a digital connection, but you don't have that service.
