Are you watching HD channels - ie BBC1 HD rather than BBC1 old-stylee?


On our box BBC1 S(tandard) D(ef) = channel 1, BBC1HD = channel 101


102 = BBCHD (which is some of BBC2 plus some other BBC stuff)

103 - ITVHD

104 = C4 HD


Most of the rest of the channels are not broadcast in HD yet (and a lot of them probably never will be.




Jonathan Dimbleby's chest hair is most alarming in HD.

Is it definitely full HD, rather than HD ready, ie 1080p?


If not then the benefit is limited.

Also some HD channels really aren't much to write home about and some programmes look better than others.

BBC HD should look at least pretty crisp and their nature shows should make your eyes bleed a bit with the clarity, if not something is wrong in your setup somewhere along the chain.

The resolution on the TiVo box may be set too low, there should be somewhere in the setup menu a way to change this. If tv I'd hd ready set it to 720p if it's full HD then 1080p there also maybe a setting for auto which will pick up your tvs highest resolution. If you leave the tv on and pull out the hdmi when the TiVo box is on, when you plug the hdmi back in most tvs flash up the resolution in the corner momentarily

    • James  may have initiated the boards but there would have been a group of people who would have taken in turn to keep boards up to date. When locks and boards were vandalised  it took some while (around 2 years) for the council to repair/replace and many of the group who maintained them, moved/died. I know James was not seen so much in ED due to  family  illness/bereavement  and I believe he also changed his job.
