The DVD player is an Aveis DP202AS. I can't find any websites for Aveis but I get the impression that the player may be a rebranded Daytek, Daewoo, Prima, Insignia, or other brand.

Cable to HD cable box
output of HD cable box to output of DVR-it's a Pioneer upconverting to 1080p
both HD cable box and DVR connected to HD TV with HDMI cables
TV only has one HDMI output so I have used an HDMI switcher which works fine
problem: when viewing TV through DVR it is NOT HD
I had output of HD cable box connected to DVR "antenna" before but got same results, no HD on DVR
any suggestions?

Here's my situation:

For starters, my home desktop PC (Dell inspiron from around 2003/2004) is using Windows XP, and I intend on getting a new desktop PC soon.

I have a Samsung Smart TV in my living room. I recently had my cable company install a wifi modem to my office PC (the outdated XP desktop). I have the Samsung wireless keyboard that I use on my Smart TV in my living room.

I ran a speed test on my internet...

I've got an Ipad with US ITunes with Xfinity app and a hidden VPN but it doesn't airplay and US Apple TV only has an ABC and HBO app on their interface

Any one think of a "work around" so I can get it on my tv.
