    I Wish they would wake up and put the american superstations like NBCHD on 8PSK they by far look the worst, just compare CBCHD and NBCHD during an NHL game!!

    8PSK Conversion

    To break it down a bit.. the only channels that most of us have that are now on 8psk are 825 WGNHD,838 SHWHD,896 CBCMH,897 SUNHD,900 CTVCH, 820 NBCHW,823 FOXHW. Nothing very significant yet imo.

    8PSK Conversion

    On a side note, I've never seen HNIC look so bad last night, and no I'm not talking about the Flyers/Penguins. The Sharks/Ducks game in HD last night was full of motion artifacts and I even saw the odd bit of macroblocking. Hopefully Bell gets out of testing stage soon and starts to implement these changes.

    8PSK Conversion

    If the picture became blank with 18Mb/s on the screen, this was most likely a CBC issue and the 18Mb/s number probably was referring to the signal CBC sends to Bell.

    Besides, mpeg-4 compression would be less that 18Mb/s anyway.

    It would depend on how much bandwidth they chose to allocate to each channel, I think...

    8PSK Conversion

    I can't say I've noticed any change in picture quality, but they definitely have room for more HD now. I'm sure they'll continue to add new channels at their own pace though. They'll have to make do with what they have until the MPEG4 transition, which will be costly.

    8PSK Conversion

    Until very recently CBC was (the only one left) still broadcast in 1080/60i.
    Not anymore.
