picture quality

[cfkillers]

i have had dishnetwork for 5 days after having fios for 2 years. i recently moved and fios said they will charge us to come out and install in new home so i said dishnetwork has just as many hd channels. well dishnetwork hd quality is know were as good as fios. black scenes arent black faces look like clay on some channels a lot of motion artifacs. i have a 1080p tv. i know dishnetwork uses hd lite do they plan on going full hd anytime soon or do i need to drop before my 30 days and pay for what i watched so far?

You don't give any info as to what programing tiers you have and your set ups. My HD is great and has been for 2 year since up grading to it. Your post is difficult to follow.

i have a 211 and a 612 both connected by hdmi i have Americas everything package.
i also noticed that they are double and sometimes triple of the same hd channels.

Better get out while you can. Because PQ has just gotten worse. Except for a few channels. And if Fios is available by all means get it.

Agreed, if I could get FIOS it would be bye-bye Dish.

He will have to stay

He is past the 72 hr regret time period. The PQ is pretty good and it just depends on which location you are in as to how good or how many channels Fios has. I admit if I had a choice tween FIOS & E* I would like go FIOS since that would mean the i-net speed would be great as well. The pricing of FIOS is a bit high I have heard.

I will give dish a call and head back to verizon. I didn't think dish picture quality was so bad compared to fios.

Are they set to 1080i? By default they come set to 480p.

720p is better then 108i, but not better then 1080p

720p would certainly be better than 108i, if it existed... whether or not it's better than 1080i, however, is debatable. For most people, there's no difference, although it can depend on your TV.

 

[cfkillers]

when the installer left i switched to 1080i for both tvs. i even go back and double check to make sure.

Good luck getting out of your contract. You'll probably have to pay a hefty ETF.
