What is the difference between TVGuardian HD and TVGuardian SD?

The High Definition model will work on both HD and Standard Definition TVs. The SD model can only work on SD TVs.

I would say the HD its the only one I have so I don't know how well the standard version works.

Hey - not sure what an 'old SD' style TV is but I'm using the converter box on an old Projection TV and it works good. The antenna is kind of flimsy so I got a sturdier one to use with the converter.

I just picked one up from BB today, and the included manual isn't much more helpful. According to the manual, it is going to be up to the individual production of discs as far as what you'll be able to get from components. IF the protection is enabled, without HDMI you will only be able to view 480i or 480p. 720p or 1080i, either through HD DVD or upconverted SD DVD would/could be blocked. Hope this helps. Like I said, I have the unit and I'm watching it now with SD DVDs until tomorrow, and the upconversion is MUCH better than my previous Toshiba DVD upconversion player. Star Wars III was absolutely fantastic (picture wise. Unfortunately this unit cannot yet "upconvert" poor scripts, but I digress). If anyone wants to ask anymore questions, I'll be picking up a couple HD DVDs tomorrow (Tuesday 4/18) as well as getting some from Netflix, so I'll have plenty of review material.

Engadget seems to think the same thing: http://www.engadgethd.com/2007/10/23/tivo-hd-vs-series3/See side note at bottom before chart.

I'm having the same problem with the 1TB my dvr expander. Let me know if you found a fix. I've had a 500gb on my other sa 8300 hd and never had an issue.

I've heard this models great with HD. But I'm not planning on updating the box or getting a newer generation gaming system quite yet.I currently have no TV. My goal is to find the most cost efficient TV I'll be happy with for years. In other words, one that handles SD well for now, but handles HD good enough that when I switch to it I won't feel like I should buy a newer model.

Hi TG: Both offer the same encryption cypher level: AES256 The DTV is the business version. There is a model that can be centrally managed by administrators and anti-virus. It is a wee bit faster on writes. The DTLP is the personal version, hence the "P", and is all you need for home use. I have used many different encrypted products and am quite satisfied with the performance of mine. I strongly suggest you review the Kingston Data Sheets for these drives and other information available on their website so that you are fully informed to make your decision. Thanks for your question and hope this helps you. Jack

All HDTVs have the same quality through SD. You'll be able to see the broadcast but not clearly. If you go to a friend's house that has an HDTV broadcasting SD and go to another place with HDTV and SD, you'll see it's basically the same, pixelated quality. Hope this helps. It's not all that bad though but it's definitely not worth getting an HDTV if you plan to use only SD. You can try this out. Good luck!

No, this appears to be for Standard Definition (SD) only. Look for a hybrid model that works with ATSC and NTSC if you want High Definition (HD).

I returned my simple TV Device and purchased the HD homerun Device the HD homerun device has two tuners built in, is the same size box as this simple TV, and records files to windows. I then got an app "instantTV pro for my ipad and I am happy now. I have other ways to save and view TV shows on the IPAD if needed

HD is digital. Digital either works or it doesn't. It is not like analog signals where you can have varying levels of performance. If the HD picture is not breaking up then this signal booster should not give you an improved picture.

The unit does not have an internal HD. It's a digital channel selector (television off air) for local stations.

There is more than just the difference of cable card input in the 96D. As for CableCard - it enables you to get rid of the cable box and instead rent (usually for about $3 - 5 a month) a small card (think PCMCIA like) into the TV and be able to decode the digital cable signals without the box. The downside is that the Cable Card 2.0 specification is rather recent and with 1.0 which most cable operators have today don't do OnDemand type programming. Both TVs will be able to pull down over the air HDTV signals with an antenna (your local stations). Now for the differences between 96D and 95D. The 96D features a USB port and a firewire (IEEE 1394) port. The USB port can be used for potential firmware upgrades (though I haven't searched to see if there even have been any yet. The other difference is that the 96D supports 1080p in "Game Mode" while the 95D, while fully 1080p, does not use 1080p in "Game Mode". From what I have been able to tell those are the big differences.

I have been tweaking my new set's picture for 3 days now. The high def is terrific but I only get 12 channels of HD. Since 50% of my viewing will be standard def cable channels, I am very disappointed that I can't get the SD picture to a level of acceptability. (I feel compelled to go to another room and watch non-HD programs on my old 36" CRT.) Any suggestions on setting changes for SD programs? A lot of the screen is blurry and pixelated (with or without the 120-Hz on).
