My wife is not too happy with the SD DirecTV picture I'm getting on my 567. When watching the football game last night, for example, the regular pre-snap view showed a lot of pixelation and blurring along the line of scrimmage. Some of the player photos shown when profiling a player appeared grainy. I understand this is not the fault of the TV but rather the compression that DirecTV performs but I'm hoping to find some solution. I notice that premium channels such as HBO look much better than most so I'm guessing DirecTV provides more bandwidth for these signals. Does anyone know if DirecTV is working on this problem with their signal??? If there was hope of this improving over the next year or so I could probably convince her to keep it.
I really like the DVD PQ via DVI, I like the no burn-in issue as we still watch a lot of 4x3 tv, I like the brightness because it's in a well lit family room, and I like the look of the TV itself but I'm not sure my wife can live with the SD PQ.
I guess my alternative will be to purchase a cheaper CRT and deal with its issues for a few years and then look again at DLP but this is not a solution I'm too excited about.
