[QUOTE="u235, post: 72575, member: 1485"] Maybe I'm too picky. You're right about macroblocking (that is, pixellation). When I look closely, it is little blocks I see. Only transmissions from mobile units show the problem - I assume they would have the lowest bitrates? Golf is the worst because it shows close-ups of faces and one's eye picks up the distortion quickly. Cycling isn't too bad, strangely. The legs going up and down look fine, there's just a bit of bleed between helmets and necks, and backgrounds aren't great when the camera tracks a rider. So it seems to be when there isn't much detail that it becomes more noticeable. Rugby and Formula One are fine, stationary cameras maybe with better bitrates. My son can't see it at all, and thinks I'm an idiot. [/QUOTE]
