On my other TV I was able to use Native resolution on the HD Tivo menu, however with this TV it only appears to accept 480i. If I choose any resolution other than 480i, I get a black screen with the sound coming through. I am fairly certain everything is hooked up right, and the cable card is getting the 1080i resolutions to the Tivo. It just appears that this TV will not display anything but 480i. What am I missing?

- Sorry I wasn't clear on that. I am using component video cables, so that should not be the problem.
I am wondering what you are making the connection with, If you are using s-video or composite from your tivo to your hd tv it will only produce 480i. in order to get 480p and above you will need a component video cables or better(hdmi) in order to produce the signal. You may have already known this, but I couldnt tell be the information provided. Hope this helps.

When I start the TV the left side is very distorted - jumpy, blocky, fading all of these things. Eventually, it just sorts itself out and is perfect. I've just had a new antenna installed - but it made no difference! Would appreciate any advice.

Have you fixed it or gotten rid of it yet? Because if not, I have a solution for you. I had the exact same problem and TV as you, and I fixed mine by leaning it forward. I think there may be a leveling safety feature for the screen, and it gets out of wack. So maybe try leaning it back and forward until you find the sweet spot.

I use this tv for a PC monitor, HD satellite viewing, and XBOX 360. I was having intermittent problems with the HDMI audio bleeding in to the other inputs. Sometimes if for instance I turned on the PC, I could hear the audio from the HDMI output on the satellite receiver through the TV speakers. Other times, I might just hear a crackle in the audio when in PC mode. If I switched back and forth between HDMI and PC inputs a couple of times, both issues would go away. I tell this just as background to what happened next. Since I have my PC hooked to the VGA input on the TV, I have been forced to manually switch the HDMI input from the Satellite receiver to my XBOX 360. (Sorry, I was too cheap to buy the $100 switch). Anyway, I usuall make this switch hot (TV on, Satellite receiver on, but XBOX off. This system although a pain, was working until yesterday. I was watching HD satellite, when I decided to play XBOX. I switched the HDMI cable, but when I turned the XBOX on, it wouldn't start up. I immediately assumed my XBOX had crapped out , but when I switche the HDMI cable back to the satellite, the TV would not recognize the signal. I have since tried the XBOX and satellite on another tv with HDMI, and both still work fine. I am thinking that some sort of switch in the tv has gone out, but I don't know. Should I just junk this TV for a new 1080P? My problem with doing that is that I use PIP with the PC on one side, and HDMI on the other. This tv does that, but I can't find another tv that does.
