Samsung SIR-T151 HDTV Receiver with Dolby Digital DTV Decoder
Does not work well with my TV
I have a Sony KV-32HS500 TV, with a 4/3 screen size.  The device only outputs in one format (e.g. 1080i or 720p), which is selectable on the back of the unit.  If it would instead output the signal it receives in its native format, then my TV could choose to convert the signal in a way that is optimal for viewing on that TV.  For example, if I have 1080i selected on the back of the receiver (which is needed to view 1080i HD broadcasts), and am trying to receive a 480i digital signal, it will convert the 480i signal to 1080i.  The picture will get displayed in a small window on my screen because the sony sees a 1080i signal and displays it in widescreen format.  If the receiver would output the 480i signal, then the TV would be able to display it on the full screen.
