NFL in HD on NBC looks ten times better than FOX. Whats the deal.

HiI'mBrian · 10-26-2009, 12:39 AM

yeah .. CBS & NBC look 10x better than FOX. something I always noticed as well.

NBC - 1080i
Fox - 720p

Fox and ABC use 720p because the motion is smoother for sports. NBC, CBS, CW, and KTLA use 1080i because the picture is sharper.

That explains it, Thanks.

Sometimes Audio is a problem with CBS.

.

NBC is excellent in HD NFL!

this was the first week our fox Cleveland station/s have broadcast in widescreen HD for football. Picked a good week though, so I could watch my Steelers play the Vikings. Game scared the hell out of me for a while btw. lol
Sunday night football on NBC by far is my favorite. Now if only there was a way I could turn off Cris Collinsworth I'd be happy as a clam.

connect an antenna to your box.

The biggest thing I hate about Fox OTA during football is some replays go SD. I'm not sure if it's because of the local station here, because whenever it happens there's a station identification or a weather alert going on. I've yet to notice it on any of the other stations yet thankfully.
