Have you connected this T.V. to a PC via HDMI? In my case I did, using one of Bluerigger's HDMI cable, but at 1080 the image doesn't expand properly..

No, not using HDMI. I'm hooked up with a conventional multipin connector from the comp's vidio output, and running at 1280 X 768 on the computer, which results in a very nice full screen PC image on the TV/monitor as well as an acceptable fullscreen TV image (I switch back and forth between the PC and cable frequently). By "acceptable", I mean the TV image is slightly laterally distorted at full screen, but is is not annoying to me.

Can't help you. I don't have an HDMI output on any of my PCs. I do have a media player with an HDMI out hooked up to this TV, and the picture expands properly on the screen...whether it be a letterbox video, or an older 4:3 TV ratio image.

It is suggested you use a fully digital connection (e.g. a Mini displayport to DVI adapter) if possible to preserve image quality, as VGA will generally always have (very) minor quality loss, due to it's analog nature. Something like this is suggested instead: BlueRigger Mini DisplayPort (Thunderbolt) to DVI Female Adapter Cable

The picture shifted to the left on 1080p. When I tried it with both 1080i and 720, it was centered appropriately. Hope that helps. Let me know when you try it!

If you have 120Hz, you shouldn't have a problem. Were you not able to watch in 1080p ? I don't know anything about changing refresh rates.

Turn the video settings on your Mac to 1080i and ensure the cable is pressed all the way in on the HDMI port. See my review of the product for additional information.

Sounds like a defective cable. I bought a micro hdmi to hdmi cable and it works great. Not so well with a micro hdmi adapter. If it doesn't work with another cable and/or the VGA cable, then the unit is probably defective.

Thanks! That makes sense. I did get a message that said something about HDCP. Can you recommend any HDMI cables that are HDCP compatible? I was trying to avoid spending a ton of money on one, but maybe I just have to. I also read on avsforum about firmware updates, etc. I guess I'll try a new cable before contacting Samsung.

No HDMI cable in my box, just DisplayPort and DVI. I used my own HDMI cable with an HP laptop and have it working fine at 2560x1440. HDMI is not limited to 1080 as one reply states.

Mine is sitting in the junk room. Most of the time the audio came through just fine for me. My issues was that sometimes the audio was so far out of sync it wasn't even watchable. It's a great concept, but a total POS in reality. Like Clayton said, try updating the drivers and see if that helps. I gave up on mine though. A 15' HDMI cable is cheaper and way more reliable.

I couldn't get mine to connect either. I purchased the HDMI adapter and it worked fine. I can only assume that the cable has a problem. Too bad because I really wanted the longer cable.

I'm having the exact same problem when trying 1080p. It lets me go to 144hz when not in HD though.

Hello, the video source must be on 1080i the avue can handled that resolution, even the 1080p, I use this and other converter from hdmi to sdi at my Tv Channel and both of them are working great. I hope this answer can help you!

Update: Watched a dvd last night (the same dvd I first tried) and the picture was perfect - even using HDMI 1080p setting! This time I chose "Anynet HDMI DVD" from the source list on my tv settings, which I don't remember being an option before. I previously chose "DVI". I wonder if that made the difference. Hmm. Anyway....glad my dvd's now look just as great as the HD channels. Thank you for responding C.Woodruff. :)LadyR

What do you have attached to hdmi 1 . I have a Dish 722 receiver which is a 1080 p device and the tv operates at 1080 p. I also have a Roku unit on Hdmi 2 and it also operates at 1080. I suspect your device on HDMI 1 is not capable or set for 1080

The only other thing to try would be an alternate HDMI cable, else contact AMAZON for a return/refund. good luck....mine worked great out of the box.

I would try a new Video in cable, if problem still exists check the hdmi cable. If not a cable problem, return it as the conversion chip may be bad.

It may be the monitor you have plugged in :) mine caps out at 1680 x 1050 ///// try plugging it into a hdmi tv :)
