You need an HDTV cable box, so you'll have to call them. WARNING: Most likely, however, the Comcast box will lack a DVD slot -- essential if you have a subscription service, like Netflix.

How do you connect a playstation 3 HDMI to a comcast box?

You don't. You either connect the PS3 to your HDTV with HDMI and the Comcast box to your HDTV with HDMI cables like I used to have or you connect the PS3 and Comcast Box with HDMI cables like I did to my home theater and then connect the home theater to the HDTV with a HDMI cable. My Comcast box is HD and I have a Sony HDTV and Sony Home Theater equipped with a HDMI repeater.

If i have a digital cable box and plug it into my basic cable will i get digital cable?

No. No when it comes to subscription channels such as MTV, Food Netowrk etc. You have to have a cable box that is from a local cable provider and call the company to activate the service. If you have an HDTV with a digital tuner, you can plug in the basic cable from a wall into your television and scan for channels. You will only get unencrypted / basic network channels such as CBS, NBC, Fox, PBS, etc.

Starting from an HDTV cable box using a split cable going to the pip output can you connect another tv to the pip output and get an HDTV picture on the other tv?

Hi, It really depends on your PIP output on the cable box and whether or not the output is HDTV or standard TV. And in some cases, the PIP output will only display non-HDTV channels, depending again, on the box and the cable company. However, IF the cable company says that a HDTV signal is available from the PIP output on the cable box, then it'll probably work. The only way to be sure is to connect a TV and find out. Hope this helps, Cubby


When you have a HDTV with antenna will it be necessary to go with a cable company?

No, and actually you will probably get more over the air channels than before, and with much higher quality than you might expect. Some of the channels are being broadcast in HDTV format, which has higher resolution than standard TV. Look at other questions about HDTV and how to find out what stations are in your area and how to choose the best antenna.
