Jerky, Jerky, Jerky ...

[Janice805]

Since the latest software update I've been experiencing LOTS of picture problems. The most annoying is the JERIKESS on channels like TNT, HDN, SCIFI, and even my local CBS. Some of my SCIFI and CBS recordings were unwatchable and I had to just delete them. Couldn't even watch them.

Then, I went to SCIFI and TNT live and it was doing the same thing. There are probably other channels doing the same thing but I don't have time to check them all. Besides the jerkiness, I've also been experiencing (at other times) on those channels bad depixelation (and other weird picture problems), even losing the picture altogether. Even on FNC HD.

Anyone else having these issues?

You are not alone.I think its DTV's encoders and not the software the have had alot of this for some time and sometimes you can hear the encoders make a BRRRip type noise but the jittery picture is from there encoders they use and the problem only seems to be getting worse.
