no blocks on my HD cable here...not a single one
I think you said you were on Comcast. Unless things have changed...
Also, how big is your TV? I've got a 61" and the compression was VERY evident.

comcast isn't even scrambling pay per view feeds or ondemand in my neighborhood...
I believe Comcast is still passing locals through as is, without any extra compression. But I'll double check that.
from your link...the only channels I have in HD are the locals and I'm getting them over the wire not OTA
well crap, i was having fun arguing with you.
I have no way of knowing for sure what Comcast is doing with your local channels. Your local channels are most likely received via an antenna farm or a fiber connection with the local stations and then fed to the local headends.
The channels being discussed in this thread are national HD channels that have been sent through the CMC in Colorado via satellite, your local channels are not handled in the same way.
So, bottom line, if you're having issues with your local stations then it's a local issue and is not related to bfdtv's findings/subject of this thread.
If you do a scan and discover that Comcast is putting, say, your local ABC, NBC and CBS all in one 256QAM slot - 3-HD per slot - then I would contact the respective stations and see if it being done with their consent. I really doubt that is happening though.
bears & broncos squaring off right now...should be a great game considering they traded qbs with each other during the off season
I am seeing a bit of blockage in the pic on this game because it's going up on satellite despite it being a local channel...there were none for the falcons game yesterday due to it being local...I'm going to get an antenna
Wierd. It looked fantastic VIA DirecTV last night.
