The one suggestion that is repeatedly said to have some success is the connection of a composite video (yellow) or s-video connection between the receiver and the TV, as well as a second audio L/R connection. Then you can select the SD video input while you’re watching SD programming and the HD input for HD programming. Another possibility if you have analog cable service along with your digital cable service, is to connect the antenna input to your NTSC tuner to the cable. Many TV will scale analog signals to the HDTV screen without the decompression artifacts (because there is no compression with analog) and the picture will look better going through your TV tuner.

Thanks for this informative and comprehensive post. It is too hard to chase down individual posts. Do you have a preference of connecting a composite video between the receiver and tv with audio l/r connection versus the cable splitter with a coaxial video cable to the tv. I don't want to spend more cash on something that doesn't work. And as other threads have mentioned, cables are not cheap especially if you go with the ubiquitous and pricey monster cables. (I think i will consider other suppliers but I still need to choose one plan vs the other)
I have a panasonic dlp pt50dl54, cablevision with scientific atlanta 4200HD, onkyo speaker/reciver htr500 system
And like many others, I'm not thrilled with the SD quality image on my new system. Thanks.
