  On a HDTV broadcast on a plasma was the digital artifacting on some shots. I noticed this particularly when the camera was following an athlete against a moving background. The edges of the individual on the screen was often obscured by rapidly shifting blocking artifacts. Really weird effect resulting from too much compression.

    I didn't see any artifacting at all... how are you getting the content? On the contrary, I was blown away by the picture quality.

  Yeah, I kinda noticed the same 5 O'clock shadow problem with some of the other female athletes. Still, hi-def 16:9 along with Dolby Digital sound is incredible!

  Another problem is that the coverage is at least a day or two old. I am also getting very tired of the ads for "LAX." However, the PQ of the events, and the fly-overs of Greece, is amazing.
