Re: Old Movies In High-Def

Just a matter of time before the bandwidth allocates your television provider to send a less compressed signal. This happened with regular Digital Tv on sat's as well. Fades would always come out tons of boxes because it's one of the toughest things for them to compute with such a low bandwidth. When I saw Digital Tv signals at first i thought i was viewing a VCD it was that poor. I believe cable provides a better digital signal though because they can reach 10mbps (that's about 1Mbyte per second which is plenty of headroom for HD content and high end Standerd def digital tv). With the impending Fiber Optics broadband (in America atleast I know Europe has had this for awhile) rollout we are bound to get better and better pictures.
