    Picture Quality NE CT

    Has anyone in northeastern CT noticed a change in the picture quality? I seem to think the quality has gone down. Not static or anything in the picture. But it seems that they've decreased the bitrate or something. To me at least it seems the picture has more pixelation than it used to. The...

    When should one negotiate new pricing

    I do like my services from my cable company. I would like to keep most of them. But I think my bundle pricing expires after this month or next month. If I can't get a good deal I'll have to downgrade my internet, eliminate some packages and possibly move my phone service to another provider...

    Charter SA Explorer 8300HDC DVR

    Do you think I should have my DVR changed out? Or is it my HDMI switch? Sometimes programs will stop showing in the middle of recording. Say I'm recording Daily Show while I'm watching every once in a while the screen will black out and I can't get it back until I stop the recording. When...

    Question on MPEG-4 Change

    My sister lives in one of the new DMAs going up. If they call DirecTV, would they get the H20 free or do they have to find that on their own? I'm still not clear on how the upgrade process works.

    Magnovox LCD HDTV has Screen Problems

    I recently bought a 15" HD LCD TV. A Magnavox 15MF605T. I got it because it was inexpensive. After reading reviews I saw that a lot of people said they had the same experience I was. Now the sound from the TV being poor is one thing. I'm going to hook it into speakers. But the picture is...

    Indoor Antenna To Pickup OTA HDTV

    Althought we're only 6-12 miles from all towers. We had problems getting more than 1-2 channels with rabbit ears for analog channels when we moved in. Now I have a little HDTV in my bedroom and need to pickup an antenna to pickup my locals. Our house is on the side of a rocky hill. Most of...

    HDTV picture jitter

    My brother in law has an HDTV. It's not very old. But he has a kid who has whacked the screen a couple of times. No damage. But what he tells me is happening is that the picture jitters up and down very rapidly. It's a very tiny amount but it's there. There is also a slight ghosting effect...
