While many newscasts and television programs are now broadcast in high definition, that does not mean all viewers are seeing the crystal clear picture.
Getting the right set up for a high definition picture is not really complicated, but it can be confusing.
"There is quite some confusion with the customers," said Raul Castaneda of Best Buy.
To start, viewers need a television that is capable of producing a high-definition picture, Castaneda said.
"Without the TV being HD, you will not be watching HDTV," Castaneda said.
But getting a high-definition television set is just the first step.
Viewers will also need to attach their high-definition television to a high-definition signal and have the right kind of receiver.
Viewers with satellite or cable will need a new high-definition box, Castaneda said.
"What you need to do is call them and ask them to upgrade you to high-definition service," Castaneda said.
Viewers that have one of the new high-definition televisions with a built-in tuner do not need cable or satellite to get a real high-definition picture, they just need an antenna.
