Default ITV UAFE Semi Final

Hi,

Watched a bit of the footy last night on DTT. The quality was dreadful.
Apart from the ultra low bandwith the vertical resolution looked like it was
from the days of 405 line.
Diagonals were all chopped. Same on Analogue. I suspect a source issue.

Is this part of the ploy make SD DTT rubbish so the sheeple will have to
move to HD.

Then repeat....

If the problem was only present on Analogue and DVB-T ("DTT"), and was
intentional, more likely a ploy to get people to switch to SD DVB-S
("Freesat") in a few weeks time...

Well the resolution of ITV1 on DTT is 704x576, on DVB-S it's only 544x576.

Not around here it's not, the slightest bit of atmospheric lift or
drop and 3/4 of the lines disappear! :~(

I assume you read the original complaint/problem, to which my half
tongue in cheek reply was directed?...
