If you looked at satellite HD broadcasts I would suspect you would find even worse bitrates among several of the HD stations. It all comes down to bandwidth - the cable satellite operators have limited bandwidth and are trying to cram as many stations in as possible, and in many case this means

Re: [H] HDTV Math

Yes, I have read about how comcast compresses their already compressed (by the network) signals trying to cram more HD stations into less space. I am just trying to figure out why our local NBC affiliate seems to be getting compressed to a greater extent with worse results? FOX and CW give a

Re: [H] HDTV Math

Brian, I pay for HD and would like to think I get HD, but if comcast is only giving 2/3 of the bandwidth that is considered HD, I may look elsewhere. I have read that digital over the air broadcasts better than analog. I am about 30-40 miles from Seattle and Tacoma, where all the networks have

Re: [H] HDTV Math

Digital OTA broadcasts will be the best signal in terms of compression, no doubts about it. The only thing better is BluRay. Part of this goes back to past discussions we've had on here about whether 1080i is better than 720p. The biggest reason for the difference you are seeing is in the
