analog?

if you have a cable box than your getting a digital tv signal now all cablevisions lines are digital its just the prelaid analog coax lines already run through the house that people dont want to replace that is limiting people and making them see a lower quality tv signal im experiancing that problem right now the reason its so much better on fios is because the fios guys lay new cable through the house(i talked to one). i think both have then same tech and quality i like optimum because it has boost with 30/5 and i consistently get 25/4 or higher.

Cablevision is compressing the picture. I have new lines in my house and the picture quality is terrible. Even from across the room.

Oh, and when I suggested on the Yahoo board that the picture quality should get better when analog channels were dumped the last time I was pretty much laughed at. Seems Cablevision is happy with the quality right now.

Maybe for you... the Equator channel on Voom looks great on my HD sets, as does FoodTV and the other HD channels.

There is proof that they compress the channels floating around on this board. Cablevision has 3 and in some instances 4 HD channels in frequencies that are only designed for two. So if you think they look good, that's your opinion, but I'm telling you real HD looks a lot better and Cablevisions HD could look a lot better.

that came across wrong, i apologize. But I still think Cablevision needs to ease up on the compression... 4 hd channels on one frequency is just not good.
