F1 Broadcast Quality

I'm talking about the picture and sound quality, not Fox's version of how to do a race.

 

I recorded it on a DirectTV DVR and the picture kept breaking up into large pixels while the sound had lots of weird noises and distortions of peoples words.

 

Did anyone else experience this? There was a small amount on the last Fox F1 broadcast but nothing like this. I'm not having problems with other programs I record.

 

I've set the DVR to record the Speed rebroadcast later in the week and will have a look at that to see if it has the same problems.

I recorded using a Tivo and the quality is fine, but I recorded off a normal quality channel not HD if that makes a difference.

No problems at all here. Watched the whole race uninterrupted. I have direct TV hd

I had a bit of pixelation and garbling of sound - but not a ton. I am on Dish. I wonder if it was weather related given that we live pretty close, but the weather seemed fine, and typically doesn't interfere with my signal.

A friend living in Littleton had it worse that we did here. He is on the Ecostar system. A friend in Boulder on DirectTV had no problems at all.

 

It was a decent day, I don't recall any rain, lightning or other atmospheric disturbances.
