Horrible posterization problems with HDMI/DVI

Video Asylum

TVs, VCRs, DVD players, Home Theater systems and more.

I tried switching my component cables to an HDMI/DVI connection from my Denon DVD-1920 to my Samsung 26" HDTV. The results are a picture which shows horrible posterization. The posterization is very evident when playing "The Lion King" at the very beginning of the movie where the sun comes up. With the HDMI/DVI cable it looks grainy and blotchy while with component cables the transition is smooth and lifelike.
Is there something that I am doing wrong? Or is this a natural result of HDMI cables?
Thanks
