FOX11 HD looks is neer downloaded quality from torrent

624 x352 is comparale to TWC's "1280x720"

So that's why those divx files look so sharp on my old analog set...

I've noticed that anything I download looks 10x times better on my analog set than the analog cable signal does.

sorry my OLD analog set is a HDTV LOL

(1920x1080i@16:9)

it does not have a ATSC tunner... there for is old analog set

most HDTV downloaded from torrent is 1280x720 rez 4.5mbps x264 format

LOL

I know, I have the oldest tv of anyone on this forum probably...

And if you think my tv is old- you should see my cell phone! It's one of the ones with the monochrome screen. I love it and won't give it up until it dies.

The files I download are HD source downsized to 624x352 or thereabouts. They are xvid files, I can't play x264 or 1280x720 on my dvd player.

I'm not kidding, those xvid files look amazing on my old set. I didn't realize the tv was capable of that kind of quality.

Just goes to show you how many years I've enduring a crummy fuzzy cable signal and didn't know any better... :-(
