ESPN Monday Night Football is Not so good

[riffjim4069]

Watching the Michigan vs. Vanderbilt game on E*. The picture looks grainy and the fans in the stands look like they are draped with mosquito netting. Does anyone else see this? Just noticed Dish Network is sponoring the Florida St. vs. Miami game Monday night. I wonder if ESPN will encounter a mysterious "fiber problem" just like VOOM experienced last October.

Lets hope next weks Ohio State vs. Texas game is done with the same equipment.

I confirmed last night that ESPN looks just as bad on cable. My uncle has time warner cable and a 52"DLP and it looked the same; crappy. So now I am 100% sure that this is not a D* problem. I will say one thing, he has a boat load more HD channels than I do. That kinda made me angry. And he gets it all free because he is an emlpoyee.

The ND vs GT game looks good on ABC (OTA), but the USC vs Arkansas game has that same Mosquito net look at feel to it as the Michigan game. And the games on ESP2HD looks even worse.

I am watching the USC/Ark game currently and I think the picture looks very good, sharp and crisp , at least on my set ....
I don't see any mosquito net effect, then again, everyones set up is different.
I'd say it looks as good as the OTA ABC ND/GT game.

By the 4th quarter it looked OTA quality on mpeg4.

Good news there...I am eager to see the difference between the mpeg 4 and ota when it is available next month.

Most mpeg 4 channels are VERY close to OTA. I have both.
