I love OnDigital...

...what with its "ghost" images of people left on background
changes in
Start Trek Next Gen...

...its picture breakups whenever someone turns a light on in the house (and
yes, I have replaced *ALL* the light switches recently with decent MK
ones!)...

...it even does it when the central heating boiler kicks in!

Hell, they can't even tell me when they're going to get round to
broadcasting ITV on my nearest transmitter!

Tell me ... why does the OD box even have a selection for TV type 4:3 /
16:9? Is that the answer in some poll that they were doing because it sure
as hell doesn't seem that the box uses that info for anything!

*grin* I look forward to the day when the country has gone properly and
completely 16:9 ... of course that'll be the same day that the US gets a
fully transparently flexible multi-resolution encoding format which is
backwardly compatible with they "old" high definition tv
standards.

*grumble*

(P.S. I censored the subject so no-one got offended...)
