Hey folks, first-time poster here.
I have a Sony KV30HS420 television. For OTA signals I have a Philips indoor amplified antenna with an RF out hooked up to a Craig CVD506 DTV converter box. The Craig converter box has both RF and composite video outputs. I get decent HDTV signals with this setup, but because the Craig only has composite or RF outputs, my television sees the signal only as a native 4:3 signal (this means that the HDTV signals have bars on top as well as the 4:3 bars on the sides).
The Sony senses 16:9 signals and zooms in when the signal is sensed (DVDs fill the 16:9 screen automatically).
I want the HDTV signals to fill the screen automatically (without changing the zoom with the remote) and to do this I think I need to get the signal into the component inputs of the monitor.
Is there any sort of RF to Component converter or even Composite to Component converter so I can get the signal from the Craig into a component input of the Sony?
