Chicago HD locals

I don't think the HD locals were ever MPEG2.

It would really help me if you guys mentioned what displays you're using, especially the size.

61 DLP...

61 DLP...

Thanks. The difference should be apparent on that set if it was anything to be too concerned about.

It's barely noticable on the locals, however SCIFI Comcast vs DIsh is night and day difference...

I had that audio droput too during the Super Bowl...wondered if it was the Dish upload or a problem at the source?

I was watching the SuperBowl at a friends house who had "Wide Open West" cable. It suffered audio dropout as well so I suspect it was the source, not Dish.

Chicago. I get green screen pixelations every Sunday evening during Desperate Houswives. I could care less but it drives the wife crazy. This only occures Sunday evening. It seems quite consistant. Been happening for months. The rest of the week seems fine. Anyone else experience this? Any explainations?

I get those too on Desperate Housewives , but on Houston hd DISH locals. Makes you wonder if this is a ABC hd thing. I wish someone could take a poll and see if ABC is the only station having problems and if it is with all hd local packs in the country. I would love to isolate the problem down to one thing like the national hd signal on ABC . What is funny to me is that Fox is in 720p as well but it never has any problems with green screens or pixelations. It looks like ABC is the only station that can't do hd right.

Chicago HD locals are on 129, you can expect occasional dropouts.
