I believe it's well documented that ABC has major technical issues in the ability to flawlessly produce College Football in HD. However, it seems the problems seem to be getting worse.

The problem that I'm referring to is the sputtering of the HD cameras during their college broadcasts. It almost seems as if the cameras can't keep up with the action or something as the picture doesn't flow smooth and instead sputters through motion. If you haven't seen this, it is really indescribable. I find this very annoying and as a result try to avoid College Football on ABC-HD because of this.

My question is whether ABC is aware of this issue and when will it be fixed?
 
I too have noticed a sub-par picture with ABC college football. What gets me more is when they say its in conjunction with ESPN. ESPN's picture looks great and nothing like what ABC is showing.
 
A viewer on the West Coast (Washington) PM'd me on AVS to confirm that he has never seen the "stuttering" phenomenon on ABC-HD CFB games.

Am I the only one who sees the "stuttering"???
