Re: ha! said by WileEC:said by wifi4milez:Thats incorrect. Feel free to browse the forums here, depending on what STB VZ sent you there is a HUGE difference in picture quality. Many people are reporting terrible SD quality with the 7216 model. Somehow I doubt that. I have 4 STBs: a 7100, a 7200, a DCT 700 and a TiVo HD. The SD picture quality on every single one of them is exceptional and I'm a professional in the field of video. If in fact there is a problem with the 7216 (and I'm not saying there is), then that's a problem with the 7216, not the SD picture quality of FiOS TV. So again, thanks for playing. Yes but if hundreds of thousands of people (myself included) HAVE that particular STB, then it is a problem with FIOS TV. I forget the model of the second STB I have, but the SD quality on it is fine. Given that its a known fact that Verizon is shipping boxes that provide a poor SD signal (especially noticeable on a large HD tv...), one would think they should address it. I know they somewhat recently updated the firmware and it helped a little, however I think those boxes are just bad overall. Keep in mind that for most customers perception is reality. Most people dont check these forums to figure out why the picture quality is so bad, its a really bad PR move on Verizons part to not remedy this asap.
