Need help with HD reception

 

confused HDTV girl

Hi everyone,

I just hooked up my ScientificAtlanta 8300 HD receiver to my Sammy HLP5063w via HDMI.(i have adelphia cable)

While the number of HD channels are rather
limited ( 8 or so with "NBC-HD", "ABC-HD", "Fox-HD","-HDNET", "HDmovie" channels in addition to regular NBC,ABC, etc), the pictures look absolutely stunning, esp on those HDNET channels with 1080i resolution. However, I am slightly confused and my boyfriend has been frustrating - so I wanna take charge.

My questions are :
1) For some reason, the other channels (when TV is set on the HDMI connection) shrink for some reason (black bars left and right) unless I use the zoom feature and lose resolution.

2) HD broadcasts on other channels (i.e. TNT) don't seem to come out as HD.

Has anyone experienced or fixed these issues??

Any suggestion or comments would be greatly appreciated. thanx guys =)
