    E vs D

    I'm setup much the same way and agree with everything but the national SD comment. SD is better on E* to my eyes.

    Questions: Poor Picture Quality & Getting Out of 24-month Commitment

    As far as looking for better PQ on E*, it really depends on what channels you're looking for. E* has better PQ on SD channels(D* has the worst SD I've seen out of 4 different providers) and a few HD channels like ESPN, ESPN2 and the HDNets. The rest goes to D*(except HD locals which vary by...

    HD Channel Count Up - HD Quality Down

    The new HD channels on Directv10 are better than anything on E*. However (as stated by others) channels like the two ESPNs and HDNets, look much better on E*. I'd also give E* the edge on HD locals PQ, but I think this varies by market (what encoders D* uses for each city, etc).

    So is it HD-lite or not?

    Yeah both of them, both show 720p(both tv's change resolution as well). It was 720p during the testing as well.

    So is it HD-lite or not?

    Is A&E HD a 720p channel or a 1080i channel? Googling it indicates 1080i, but it's 720p on D*.

    Image pixelation problem on some HD channels

    Huh? Maybe I missed something but I've seen people complaining about audio dropouts on ESPNHD via D* and I stated that since the problem doesn't exist on E* nor Comcast, it's likely a D* problem.

    D*'s REALLY trying to get the word out about the MPEG4 requirement

    And you obviously have not viewed the HD LIL's from the Boston DMA on D*. The NBC and CBS look worse than what I used to get on BEV and NESNHD in MPEG4 is a joke.

    Image pixelation problem on some HD channels

    Considering there is no audio dropouts on E*, I'd say it's a D* problem.

    From E* to D*?

    I like the native mode as well, it's a plus for the HR20. To me, DLB is definetly not overrated and a must for a DVR, especially for a sports fan. I just don't get why D* with all their emphasis on sports would neglect this.

    From E* to D*?

    I have both the 622 and the HR20. The 622 is by far the better machine as it stands today. Responds better, has DLB's and a 30 second skip rather than "slip". I would think that going from the 622 to the HR20 will feel like a downgrade to most.

    Need service after "move"

    Just "move" home to get the service call and then "move" back a few days after the work is completed. No big deal.
