Anyone have any ideas about etiquette? I was watching the playoffs at someone else's house. The signal was so bad it made my eyes hurt, literally. How do you offer to help without insulting a man's setup that he's clearly invested tens of thousands of dollars in?
Have there been any EngadgetHD posts on HDTV etiquette? Am I the only one having this problem. Do people get offended when you try to help? I know I'm not that abrasive...
Hey, I would speak up, as long as you picked the right time (i.e. not while that person is beaming at how awesome they think their TV is). I know that with my setup at home, which we spent a lot of money on, had any problems with it, I would want to know what they are and how to fix them. In fact, I'm so paranoid about that that I'm seriously considering having a professional come over and criticize the calibration and whatever just so that I can have the peace of mind that there are no problems.
