Re: [HD] Any New HD Channels scheduled in future? said by jaw2012:Is that really 8Mbps for HBO HD? I always thought the conversion from Mpeg4 to Mpeg2 was a big reason for the lower PQ compared to the other HD's, but if the bitrate is really 8Mbps, then no wonder.
8mbps in mpeg4 is equal to 16-19mbps in mpeg2. People here talk smack about something they don't know about. |

8mbps in mpeg4 is equal to 16-19mbps in mpeg2. People here talk smack about something they don't know about. The HBO feed VZ sends down to us is Mpeg2, so the original 8mbps bitrate means nothing, because the bitrate changes after the conversion from Mpeg4 to Mpeg2 which eventually lowers PQ. No way around that fact, any conversion will lower PQ. |
