I had Direct TV replace my existing HD Receiver with a HDTivo and I have to say that the pic quality is very disappointing. OTA images are not near as clear and it seems like the fine edges of the images have been smoothed over or blurred.
This is very frustrating to me because we don't have a choice of which HDTivo we get. They are using the cheapest possible converters and components to make these things. They MUST be further compressing the HD signal for the storage medium on the Tivos.
Is this an example of what we have to look forward to? Now I'm going to have to pay for another receiver connection so I can view live HDTV in order to have the best pic quality.
This is very disappointing.
