What equipment do I need to view HD programs?

How do I know if a program is available in HD?
HD channels usually have HD or H in the channel name in the guide
eg. 7HDCTY and will also have HD in brackets in the program description
located at the bottom of the Guide screen.
How do I use the stretch and zoom functions of the NextBox

Why do some of the programs on my High Definition TV look sharper than others?
Even though your TV is high definition, you can still watch non-high definition programming. It could be that you are
actually watching a standard definition show, which will make the picture seem less sharp than you’re used to with high
definition. Please verify that you are watching a high definition channel in your Enhanced Guide.
