Greets -
I have a working MythTV box that I'm going to be updating to use with
OTA - ATSC HDTV channels. I'm looking at using the HD3000 adapter
like everyone else. On the pchdtv.com site there is a sample HDTV
video clip (tst.tar aka tst.ts) at the bottom of the downloads page:
http://pchdtv.com/downloads_right_down.html
I downloaded and played this clip on a few of my systems (Dual 2Ghz
G5, AMD64 3Ghz, and P4 2.8Ghz) using current mplayer and xine
builds. In all cases the quality was shockingly bad. The most
noticeable problems had to do with what appeared to be interlacing
(shouldn't even be there?!) and edge artifacts like around the
engineers head in the opening clip. The background zooming by the
train in the second scene also showed noticeable problems with edges.
I'm curious if this is the quality that is expected from the HD3000
or if this is just a recording of a poor quality 480i stream that
might have been uprezed to some HDTV format. Is anyone willing to
post 5 - 10 second clips of HDTV streams they've captured with the
HD3000?
