Duh. From a vile of plutonium unless of course you are in the past in which case you will need a direct lightning hit at precisely the right time.

| With digital TV it's something else, we are talking of QUAMS, But 3Gbps is a lot. We can usually put few HDTV on a QUAM but a QUAM cannot handle this now. So basically, if you want to broadcast this you need to span the stream on few frequencies. -- Jesus saves, but only Buddha makes incremental backups. | |

| Re: Current speed? Actually it's QAM not QUAM. QAM stands for Quadrature Amplitude Modulation. In one 6 Mhz channel cable company using QAM-256 mode can send 38.8 Mbps of digital video/audio.
Digital video is compressed with MPEG-2 codec. An 1080i HD program can be compressed to a maximum of 19 Mbps (usually it's around 15-16 Mbps). Using QAM-256 mode 2-3 HD channels can be multiplexed. If you use MPEG-4 or WMV9 codecs bandwidth requerement is about 1/2-1/3 of MPEG-2.
1080p HD video if encoded using next generation codecs (MPEG-4) and transmitted using QAM-256 or QAM-1024 -- very doable.
Thing is that there is probably very little noticeable picture quality improvement. If it was like 4096p then of course by all means I want that. But the difference between 1080i and 1080p - is not really worth it. | |

| Re: Current speed? hmmm...ordinarily I'd agree with you. But based solely on what's written, "Sattilite" is caplitalized, so it must be a proper noun. , I still don't have a good idea what Sattilite is though. Presumably, it's some high bandwidth way of broadcasting HDTV. Or maybe they're a company that did that intentionally in order to distinguish themselves. -- English is a difficult enough language to interpret correctly when its rules are followed, let alone when a writer chooses not to follow those rules.
