In a rare occurrence (at least for me) there were two high definition
college football games being broadcast at the same time Florida at Tennessee
on CBS and Notre Dame at Michigan State on ESPNHD. Switching back and forth
between the two, it appeared the 1080I game being broadcast on CBS had
better picture quality than the 720P game being broadcast on ESPNHD. I was
watching both games on my *FRONT* projection Zenith Pro 895X CRT using a
Pioneer Voyager BD-V3510HD cable TV terminal. The Pro 895X can natively
display both 1080I and 720P signals, and the Voyager BD-V3510HD can pass
multiple resolutions through to the display device so I don't believe it was
an artifact of my equipment; especially since the ESPNHD picture was not as
good of quality as Sports Center which aired immediately prior to the game
or the ABC MNF game this past week. I have only just recently got ESPNHD
and this was my first opportunity to watch a college football game on it so
I am curious as to what other people's experiences have been with ESPNHD's
picture quality when it has been broadcasting live remote programming HD.
