Should 3D Y/C under advanced video menu be turned off or on when viewing up-converted dvds on an HDTV?

Own an Insignia ns-lcd 26. Also under Advanced Video Menu I have turned off: Noise Reduction - - Spatial Noise Reduction - - Speckle Noise Reduction - - Temporal as well as 3D Y/C I also have the Sharpness turned to zero considering dvds and digital television broadcasts are pre-sharped and it's running though a digital cable. These settings seem like things for Analog video or using analog video cables. Not digital tv signals or dvds through hdmi (digital cable). What do these settings do exactly? Am I correct on this? I'm sure other HDTV and SDTV owners may have these settings as well as other fake enhancement settings.

1. Well ONE thing you FORGOT.... Speckle should be turned on for Analog grainyness.... And Another thing you FORGOT.... Those Engineers are smarter than both of us combined. Those Settings are only ACTIVE when NEEDED. A Digital Signal doesn't even come CLOSE to those Circuits, and ONLY the Analog signals that NEED it will be processed by the Noise Reduction Circuit.... Those Engineers are GENIUSES....of course that does not mean they don't do stupid crap like whiz on an electric fence, but you see a reduction in it. So set your settings, but don't turn them on and off ALL THE TIME....it's automatic.
