Hello anyone who has the 6900 HD Combo Super.
I've had it a few days and I'm finding slightly poor picture resolution on some channels, for example, the standard definition ones on Astra2 that don't have such a high bandwidth as some other broadcasters. I'm seeing some 'blockiness' which I can't seem to avoid by changing any of the Display options.
(I'm currently using the latest official firmware, but the latest 6.63p patch seems no different)
You might say, well, those channels simply are not very good quality, but I didn't notice this on my other/last receiver which is a Vantage X221TSCI.
I expect to see a little of this problem only on the terrestrial Freeview channels which, I think, have access to less bandwidth than their satellite versions.
Is anyone else finding what I've described on this model?
Frankly I'm not impressed, to be honest. I went for a Technomate thinking everything generally would be better than in a Vantage. Was I naive?
Thanks for your thoughts and observations,
Lee
