You probably don't need a great screen to see this. It's soft, but that isn't the worst problem. Considering it comes from the other side of the world and I'm getting it in HD for free (via roof antenna) I'm ok with it.

Seems to me Cameras zooming in and out are likely contributors to pixelation. - oscar 08:35:26 08/20/08 (1)
more a function of the camera than the broadcast.
- I think it's a package deal showing the network's commitment to HDTV quality - Jazz Inmate 22:45:46 08/25/08 (0)
  If a network cares about its HD broadcasts, it invests in the best hardware and trained personnel, including cameras and cameraman, as well as processing and broadcasting hardware. NBC is not the best. The problem I mentioned should not cause pixellation on a quality HD cam that is on the right settings and streaming to disc or broadcast on a system that can handle 1080i. So either NBC doesn't have the right gear or it hires people who don't know how to use it right. Either way, not the best HDTV broadcast.

No motion blur at all on my 52" DSP @ 1080 - LWR 06:27:18 08/20/08 (0)
some of the camera work is phenomenal.
