2008-03-31 16:05:08.602788+02 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

When DVDs first came out, the computer graphics weenie in me hated 'em: I saw all the blocks and artifacting and aliasing, and preferred VHS, although even then I admitted that it was probably because I was used to the VHS artifacts and not yet used to the DVD artifacts. HDTV is out, but apparently Comcast is re-compressing the HD signal in order to squeeze out a little more bandwidth: A discussion forum entry comparing Comcast's HD to FiOS HD, once again someone doesn't have their codecs tweaked right.
