Cox probably does this.

On my calibrated TV the quality for FoodHD just isn't that impressive.

I Had my brother tune mine thinking it was something going bad with my tv ! This explains why. My brother tuned it well. It looks good but not as good as it did before and I thought my tv was getting old and the backlight fading or something.

Great that this came out I was looking at tv's online.

Comcasts problem is they need to stop running on the cheep and upgrade the bandwidth to the CMTS's. They want to run DOCSIS 3.0 and offer more channels but most CMTS's can't handle it. Nobody is going to see ANY upgrades to their home until the infrastructure is upgraded!

FoodTV used to be my favorite channel not just because I liked the content (who can refuse seeing food, seriously, it's the healthy alternative to eating), but because of the content quality. Honestly, the stuff used to pop on my 60" Samsung plasma.

I have indeed noticed a rather significant reduction in quality on all the HD channels. They seem to be increasing compression even more so on less-than-prime channels. Interestingly enough, they added SciFi channel in my area and promptly crippled it with compression so much that action in Stargate Atlantis was laughable with the artifacts. My jaw literally dropped when I saw the tiling. Unacceptable Comcast, unacceptable.

Bad choice of channels to compress, BTW, especially considering the viewership.
