I'm a new Dish subscriber trying to get VoomPQ on Dish to match VoomPQ on Voom.

My Samsung DLP processes everything at 480p, which is the setting I used with Voom on Voom. Now that I've switched to Dish, I've found that I need to set the 811 Dish HD Receiver at 1080i. The result isn't perfect, but I estimate that the picture quality of the Voom channels on Dish are about 95% of what they were on my Voom receiver.

Has anyone else confronted this issue?

nystrand: I'm sure you meant 720p on your set, not 480p ;) . Here's is a thread concerning PQ on the V* channels.

Can HD be chosen ala carte?
