ESPN-HD looks worse?
ADVERTS 1
Especially the ticker, when it scrolls it pixelates, the PQ for the Mich St/NC game looks grainy. I have a bad feeling more HD is maybe being added to the TP?

ESPN News HD is also pixelating.

It could be a problem on ESPN's end.

Might depend on which arc each of you are watching these channels on. Would be interesting to know if one is having more problems than the other right now.

I have 119/110/61.5
ESPNNews is fine to me, watching the HD hightlights of the Mich St/NC game on sportscenter I don't see the mosquito/pixelation that I saw live.

It seems like every time a commercial comes on it just stutters and stutters in the commercial window. Even the sliding graphics aren't perfectly smooth on the left side of the screen. I do not believe this is a receiver issue since it doesn't happen on other channels except at times where I have seen others report the same issue, like NFL Network a few weeks ago. I have also tried resetting the receiver, but that does nothing. It looks like a Dish encoding issue since it wasn't present on cable and it isn't present when highlights of games are running. Others should be able to see it if I am onto something though. Then again, it doesn't always happen...

wow i'm not crazy? Get out!
I see that sliding graphic thing you mention as well! What the hell is going on!!!!!
That stutter thing bugs me, I have to change the channel and come back and hope the movement of the game is smooth.
