Comcast cable box setting 1080p or 1080i

Transcription

1 Comcast cable box setting 1080p or 1080i I have highspeed Internet with DLS and unlimited data. 80% of our television usage is through "You Tube" for 1080p or 4K programing. We also use "Red Bull" app, and NBC app which are 1080p and free. We just have Comcast for HD cable and ON Demand. We purchased our Samsung 65 inch curved 3D UHD back in January 2016 and have been watching 4K, 3D movies, and 720P, 1080P, AND 4K programing, converted to 3D for many shows. The LG BH100 and Samsung BD-P1000 are not typical of most Blu-ray disc players, with regards to how they handle, 1080i/1080p issues, but they are examples of how both of these resolution formats can be handled, at the discretion of the manufacturer. The majority of content is captured at better resolution than 720p and 1080i. I personally believe that the X1 box should be set for the highest resolution that the TV supports. According to some in this thread no measurement equipment is necessary. The content is shot native 24 fps with at least 1080p resolution. Get the Most From Your Tech With Our Daily Tips. Are you watching the HD channels? Most cable/satellite providers have separate HD channels. For example, Channel 2 might be CBS in standard definition, but Channel 1002 might be CBS in high definition. It's important to check with your provider to find out where the HD channels are. OK, on to the setup. There are three main options, but sadly with most boxes there are only two: 1080p/60 represents the same frame repeated twice every 30th of a second (enhanced video frame rate). said by Napsterbater: 720p, 1080i and 1080p are all considered HD.. Also no live "normal" TV station is 1080p.. Please Rusty, That is nothing but assumption on your part. Comments like that should wait until we see the finished product. I can be accused of overly supporting Comcast. But in this case you are trying to sell an ice cube in h**l. Considering the current technology and considering where things are obviously heading, supporting Comcast's decision to 720p is at a minimum naive on your part. DirecTV is already ahead in picture quality and Comcast's decision to go to 720P will only move them farther behind. You folks might want to look up ATSC 3.0, "the next big thing" in broadcast which includes 4K and looks like the HEVC group got their shanks into it. Of course given how slow your local broadcasters were to ramp up to HD then it indeed might be quite a few years off. They have a business decision to make you as an customer also have to decide what to do. What's the Difference Between 720p and 1080p Resolution?. WHAT??! So you can only get 1080 with an X1 box now?. However, there are variations on how some players accomplish this task. The following are two interesting examples from two players that are no longer in production but are in still use. Comcast doesn't broadcast at all (meaning over the air). Comcast's cable only (non-local broadcast must carry channels) are now in 720p60 in mpeg4 format. the local channels are carried in their native broadcast format (720p or 1080i) in mpeg2 format. In USA there is no broadcast of 1080p. the reason Comcast moved to 720p60 is that no native TVs are now using interlace format (CRTs) and all streaming must be done in progressive to smart devices and to the streaming website. said by yhp: So when Comcast finally starts offering real HD, what will they call the $10/mo "HD Technology fee" we've been paying for the last X years?. The Evolution From Analog TV to Digital TV. said by telcodad: While those shipments are apparently going to employees first, they are getting out the door as corporate cousin, NBCUniversal, prepares to produce some content from the Summer Olympic Games in

2 Rio in 4K and HDR.. The opening ceremonies take place one week from today: Friday, August 5, That's not much wiggle room to get those Xi5 boxes deployed. How can I tell if the mpeg4 conversion has been done in my area using my X1 equipment?. This thread is about cable channels being converted to 720p. Local channels are transmitted as they are sent to Comcast, NBC, CBS, and PBS typically in 1080i, Fox and ABC typically in 720p, although there are a few "rogue" affiliates of various networks that transmit in the other format.

I received and from comcast, from titled: Billing Alert Credit Card Authorization Failure ( CaseID -XGRNHCKYZ) on November 30, I called your 1800 number and had Mark try and reset my password. After 64 minutes I told him once he figured it out to call me back. The only thing he was able to do was change my password so neither one of us could get in. I called back after 30 minutes and was waiting for my call to be answered when the next person hung up on me. The last person I called after 20 minutes Mary (34145) was able to fix my problem. Thank you Mary. However the rest of your customer support team is terrible! Please reply!!!!! Comcast installs old, used equipment for new customers and when their service doesn't work because the equipment is refurbished, they blame the customer and charge the customer for the service call. Chris: We do have NFL Network as well as NFL Red Zone. In some cases your box may be outputting 480p, 480i or 480 Stretch (perhaps others), and the tech-help scripts do not point them to setting the device in the following way. Chris: Do you mind if I ask a few questions to make sure we get the accurate information?. Comcast's customer service is the worst! Half of the employees live in a foreign country and can barely speak/understand English. Also, who wants to provide some foreigner with their social security number, address, phone number, name, and date of birth. Talk about the potential for identity theft!

Change it: Your Comcast/Motorola HD Cable Box may be outputting 720p, not 1080i. Comcast is a cable, Internet and phone provider in the United States.

Chris: The NFL Network also shows live games. I agree with you, George, but will millions of customers? Maybe someone in the Finance department thought it would save a lot of money to not have to pump out the higher number of pixels? I dunno. 1080i only sends 580 rows of pixels every 1/60th of a second, where 720p sends 720 pixels per 1/60th of a second. The difference is in how the final picture looks. I don;t know if it costs more to send 1080i or 720p. Speculation on my part. An inquiry to Comcast customer service resulted in a fairly quick response from the customer service team. The response time was approximately 2 hours from the initial . This satisfied us because we received communication from a representative instead of an automated response. See the response below: Comcast is money hungry and all they care about is ripping customers off!. You: Does COMCAST gave live TV of all NFL games?. on Change it: Your Comcast/Motorola HD Cable Box may be outputting 720p, not 1080i. I agree it's sneaky. They SAY they broadcast 1080 and they do. They SAY you will get HDTV, and you do. They

3 just don't say you'll actually get 1080i when you receive it. Please cancel my phone service at please cancel my cable service, and my alarm service. Please.I will no longer be paying you for the poor servive on these accounts. I have been on hold for twenty minute and have just been retranferred back into voice mail. As of today my Comcast channels have changed. I received no notification of this. I did not get a new channel listings guide in the mail. I can not find a listings guide online. Please notify me by about where to find a printable channel listings guide online. My Comcast company is located in Pottstown, PA. When channels change again, which I am sure they will, please mail a new channel listings guide to your customers in advance of the change. Thank you. You: Now u bothered me and I already am a paying customer. I would not recommend Comcast to anyone, unfortunately, it was the only company in our area that offered both tv and internet packages. Well, we subscribed to services and a week after having them installed everything crashed. It took almost two weeks before anyone would come out. Not even a month later our services went down for another week. These people take atleast a week to "fix" anything just for it to go out again. When we contact customer service they are rude and short, we have asked to speak with managers just to be told that they could not transfer us. (I've worked in a call center, I know this isn't true)i've been told they would give credits, call back, etc. to never hear from them again. Now my bill has increased by $20 (something I was not told upfront when picking my package), and will increase again in 6 months. When I called to ask about this I was immediately transferred to "retention" without being given a chance to fix the problem..while doing this I was disconnected several times, and when trying to call back it went straight to an automated question of having them call back at a later time or getting more information about this option. I wasn't allowed to decline. When I finally talked to someone in "retention" I was advised that he could not "fix the past" and there was no using "crying over spilled milk." Now I am trying to pay this bill and cannot get through, will only ring once. Everytime I think my experience can't get worse it does. I will give one star, because I am unable to give a 0. I'm not sure. When we contacted customer service through the form, we received an immediate, automated response. Our question was not immediately answered. Chris: Thank you for visiting Comcast. What questions can I answer for you today? My address book disappeared. I called on the 21st and a "ticket" was started. I was called back the 23rd and was told the ticket was explained better now and resubmitted. I called the next Tue and was told it takes 72 hours. I called Fri, today, and was told I could fix it myself. Not being computor savy, I asked to talk to a superviser and was put on hold for 5 minutes. My wife called and was hung up on 3 times. The fourth guy said he would stay on line for a tech, but disonnected in 2 minutes. My access page takes 60 minutes to load now and still no address book. Where do I go?

I left her to see if she could get through an entire message to get the number she needs.

When the customer service representative does not pick up, the automated system repeats multiple times. When the Comcast customer service representative answered the call, they were helpful with my request of information concerning initial service. The English speaking rep was extremely polite. The mailing address on file with the corporate side of Comcast is:. You: this is a sample of poor customer service. Имя * * Сайт Отправить комментарий
