Re: re said by voipnpots2:I've always been curious as to what satellite TV is like (as far as picture quality). I have HD cable, and I couldn't imagine better channel quality. I have read lots of reviews that U-verse gets picture problems. What I don't like about U-verse is that everything depends on where you live because it is based on how far you are from their server or whatever. How is the phone quality for U-verse? Does your internet slow down at night (mine does)?
Phone is great, no issues there. If you have cable provider internet, yea, it will slow down because you are on a shared line with all your neighbors. U-Verse internet is FANTASTIC. No slow downs at all and extremely fast! My only issue is the TV quality. The pixelization is starting to distract our viewing because now we are ALWAYS looking for it.

| By pixelation, do you mean the clarity of picture, or the fact that it sometimes "freezes" and gets all pixely and sometimes the sound goes on and off during that time. If it's the latter, my cable does not get that much of that, but occasionally it does. |

It would be more of the former, clarity. When I look at the picture, either moving or darks, there are areas where the blocks can be seen. I've had very, very few freezes, the connection is top notch; however, I believe (after reading a bit) that the compression used is still not perfected. Not sure, but I never saw this on my satellite HD.

| If it's the former, I only see it during very fast-moving scenes. It was very noticeable in the movie Speed Racer with all the crazy fast scenes. You may want to try viewing the On Demand material to see if that goes away. I've noticed that with Comcast, HD On Demand material has better sound and picture than just regular HD channels. |
