It is now evening and so my room is at the correct light level to see the best possible picture on my HDTV.
I wrote before that the 8300 HD was not recognizing the HD signal and it was coming in at 480p.
I also wrote that the replacement box was set to be at 1080i all the time.
I have now discovered that the new box also is not always recognizing the 1080i signal. Now that the box is set so all stations are playing 1080i; the aspect ratio stays correct depending on the signal. However if the HDTV light indicator is not on I am still getting a 480i signal on the HD channels.
