[QUOTE="porky996t, post: 837192, member: 75318"] Hi Phil, I, too got rid of my Sky box over two years ago and started using MP instead. Welcome to the learning curve! I use both DVB-T and DVB-S/S2 signals to receive Free To Air programmes. Whilst I think I have a good picture, I do find that when upscaling to a full HD image some channels are not as detailed as others. This is particularly noticeable with channels such as "Yesterday", however, I do find "BBC2" very good though. I suspect some channels use a lower bitrate on transmissions. As wishy washy said, this is going to happen with a SD transmission, as you are effectively zooming in to the image. I use a combination of codecs, and have PowerDVD11 set for the H.264 channels (generally HD) and the MS DVD Codec that comes with Win7 for standard SD transmissions. HTH, M. [/QUOTE]
