In Reply to: Cablevision digital cable, crappy hdtv quality? posted by Frank25 on November 26, 2006 at 18:31:02:
AS GTF stated, HD isn't quite ready for prime time. More pecifically, the networks don't quite have it down right. They are still learning. Some networks/stations are better than others. CBS as a rule seems to be ahead of the other networks. Its not uncommon for someone at the staion to forget to flick the switch and turn on the HD signal until the firast batch of comercials.
That said, cable companies frequently have their own problems sending the sinal, and if you are close to your local stations, you may wish to try to get OTA. I find this usually gives me a better picture.
Lastly, the Scientific Atlanta boxes are famous for being dog-doo.
