Nope...its not just you. It is absolute
crap.
Its
the 56K MP3 version of a TV picture.
Because there are only 6 true channels allocated
for
the 6 Muxes they are cramming so many channels on one Mux that the bitrate
is
waaaayyyy too low :-((
Thats
what really pisses me off about Digital TV.
It IS
capable of perfect pictures with a decent bitrate .......or thousands of
channels of worse than Analogue.

Is
it just me or is the actual picture quality of OnDigital absolute
shite?
It
just seems soft and squidgy - the only half-decent channels being the FTA
BBC1/BBC2...
...I
find it amusing when watching - say - Star Trek Next Gen on Sky One that
when
you get scene cuts that you still have shadowy "ghosts" of the actors from
the
previous scenes still visible. Watching the "blockies" on some of the movie
channels is quite scary and is reminicent of some of the very first MPEG
encoding I did seven years ago at my last company!
Is
this the "better quality digital future" that I heard Chris Smith banging
on
about earlier this year ... it's scarey t think that it
is!

Didn't think you could do that with On
Dogital It thought if you cancelled subscription then they t ok the
box back?
I own my own box - I bought it for 199 when then were
'giving them away' at the launch. In due course I got a cheque
back for 199. Only condition was (I think) that I had t subscribe
for a minimum of 1 year. A few weeks after that promotion they
changed all the terms - they obviously realised that after a year if
everyone stopped subscribing they'd have no revenue, and would
have 'lost' thousands and thousands of expensive
boxes.
