We were having some trouble with our HD box and changed it out for a new HD
box from Comcast and now all NON HD programs are being shown in 480i instead
of 480p. What would cause this? Would it be the cable box? I don't see
how it could be the TV because it didn't do this before the change.

Thanks...

Press guide and info buttons (while cablebox is OFF) on the box (not the
remote), then follow the setup on the screen. Make sure that you
unselect 480i and have 480p selected and all the rest of options such as
1080i, 720p, 480p, etc.

Also, when setup is complete, use the remote and click on menu TWICE and
select Set:Picture Format. Select upconvert-1.

If that doesn't work, call Comcast.
