The Real World Cup!
The Real world Cup is?
Who will do the better at showing the matches.
Day One!
ITV HD 1 BBC HD 0
ITV HD Great pictures very clear and vibrant.
BBC HD Great pictures again clear and vibrant, however . Sound and Picture loss in the first half.
Looking forward to Day Two.
Seeing as they are all using the same equipment i can't see that?
They may have been taking the same feeds from SA, but they will have all been doing their own encoding/uplinking.
Which is still the standard 720p transmission
Sorry I have not got rich mans tellie so I can not comment
Day Two.
ITV HD 1 No problems
BBC HD 0 Oh dear! The match has not even started and we have had sound problems on two occasions.
Just watched South Korea v Greece.
ITV are not using Dolby Digital, just plain stereo. Cheapskates!
At least the Beeb sound is DD
ITV only broadcasts DD 2.0 sound!chudleighpaul:ITV are not using Dolby Digital, just plain stereo. Cheapskates!
As I said, Cheapskates!
ITV HD went to an ad break just before the goal. Most of England missed it!
ITV - I don't want to be told to buy a Hyundai while Stevie G is putting us in front!
....and most of the first half in SD. A famous error for the goal. I doubt if it's their fault, though.
ITV obviously lost the HD feed and cut to an advert while the switched to the SD feed!
Oh no!! Missed the England goal in HD in ITV but the USA goal was beautiful in HD.
Yes the BBC HD are using 5.1 Dolby Digital. And ITV HD are using 2.0 Dolby Digital.
But the BBC HD breaking up sound does not sound to great when you are in fear of any damage to your speakers.
And I have the ITV HD sound running through Dolby Pro-logic II so I get the same effect of 5.1 sound without the nasty break up.
Day Two
ITV HD score a home goal with that rubbish gaff when England scored and we all saw a stunning motor vehicle by KIA!
Just when ITV HD were doing so well, a bit like the goalies gaff.

In which case it's Germany 1 England 0
I watched yesterdays matches on Sky Sports HD (Germany) and the BBC and ITV's attempts at HD were just poor in comparison!!!
