Re: Any chance of improving my Direct TV

I had the same problems with DTV, the scifi channel had the worst compression artifacts making it almost unwatchable, in fact the commercials seemed to have had better quality than the actual programs. After hearing all their excuses, blah blah blah...I got fed up and switched to cable (the other crooks), at least their quality was better and I didn't have to pay extra for the HI-Def channels. I don't see any solution to the highly compressed transmissions, unless some new type of compression with higher quality for the same bandwidth gets invented. But then they would probably try to squeeze more channels in the same space.
