DirectTv vs. DISH - picture quality ?

207.162.228.12


I had noticed that my friends Direct TV signal
fluctuates the tint on many of its channels. You can
actually see the pigment change in peoples faces from
'normal' to 'pinkish'. I also noted that during an 'NFL
ticket' game, the players had some 'ghosting' and when
the camera panned back to include all the players on
the field, it looked like it was overly compressed. Kind
of like a VCD.

After mentioning this to him, he noted that two other
people he knows have the same problem. I am
currently on the last few days of my Primestar setup
and have to switch to either Direct TV or Dish. I
haven't seen any of these problems with Primestar and
it's causing me some concern.

Has anyone else had these problems, and more
importantly, has anyone with the DISH setup
experienced this ? Unfortuneately, if I want NFL
ticket, this question is moot. However, I would still
like opinions......Thanks in advance.
