AVIA is a basic calibration dvd.It helps set the contrast,sharpness,brightness,color and tint levels on your set.It also has many more tests you can use on your set as you get use to it.The dvd also helps set speaker levels for home threater speakers. The dvd is a step by step on how to do the tests,Once you have watched the dvd the tests are real easy to do. AVIA costs about $40.I use my AVIA dvd about 4-5 times a year to check the tv settings.Try www.deepdiscountdvd.com The last thing I can think of is to connect the dvd player to cables you are using to see HBO.If you have cable unhook the cable box and hook up the dvd player.The idea is to get the dvd player connected to cables you viewed HBO on.Then you will know whatis the weak link. Since HBO is good,then the tv set is good,and whatever cable (dvi or component)you are using to get that picture is good also.When you connect the dvd player to the same cable the picture from the dvd should as good as HBO.Hope this makes sense.
