WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN DIGITAL CABLE AND HIGH DEFINITON TV?
High Definition has five times the picture resolution of digital cable which produces a far clearer picture. HDTV is shown in 16:9 ratios, as opposed the 4:3 ratio of standard definition. Some HDTV programs also broadcast in Dolby 5.1 surround sound.
HOW MANY HIGH DEFINITION CHANNELS DOES SOURCE OFFER?
Source Cable presently offers 59 HD channels. In addition, Source now offers On Demand New Release movies in HD at $6.99 each.
WHY ISN’T THERE ALWAYS HD CONTENT ON THE HD NETWORKS?
The amount of HD programming available on each network is dependent upon how much HD programming each network has at their disposal. Some networks offer 100% of their programming in HD while others don’t. When it’s not available, the networks will broadcast programs in standard definition. You can tell which ones those are as they normally have black bars on each side of the picture. All of the networks have stated that they will offer more and more HD programming in the future.
