I just got a Samsung LA32R81BDX and i am unable to pick up any HD channels. However, when i borrowed a friends $99 ASUS external USB HD Tuner a few months ago, i could get them all flawlessly on my PC.

Suggestions? Am i just retarded and unable to tune it properly?

    everything's plugged in and switched on? (sorry, have to ask :P)

    is there some kind of autotune thingy on the remote?

    Haha, yep its all plugged in etc.

    The autotune grabs all of the Standard Def channels perfectly. But does nothing with HD at all.

    And yes, the TV is ment to have an integrated HD Tuner.
