I also had the pixelation and stuttering. I have a home made HD DVR and I always wondering if its the computer or the station. I'm glad to know it was the station.

I was also getting picture breakup and audio loss during the Packer game. My signal strength was at 99% and didn't budge which got me a thinkin'.
What if I was getting too much signal? I added a 20db pad and the problem went away and I was still at 99%. (no preamp used)

Yep that usually fixes it when you have high signal strength, pad it down and remove the multipath that is causing symbol interference.

I had the dropouts on my HR10-250 as well.  Nothing on my RCA DTC-210 though.  I was watching both OTA with a signal strength of 92.

Shouldn't have to worry about it this weekend.

According to TitanTV, the 11/19 Pack/Pats game on CBS will NOT be in HD. :mad:

I was getting audio drops during the Packer game as well.  I've also experienced them on other FOX shows - Prison Break every week.  I can deal with it a little during a game, but not during a show.  Missing some dialogue for several seconds is a real bummer.  Anyone have a good solution, if any exists?

I'm getting FOX HD OTA through a DirecTV HD TiVo receiver.

:confused:  I was also getting the audio drop outs and pixels . I know what you mean Gregg I also have more invested in my audio than my video. I'm using a Dish 811 with a signal of 88%. I no longer subscribe to Dish but use the OTA. I thought it was my setup at first. What I really fine annoying is I've been watching House tonight with not one problem for the last 30 minutes. Why the packer game lol?

FOX 5.1 REALLY DOES SUCK FOR THE GAMES LOL!!!!!!

A source at Fox6 just told me that this actually is due to issues at their transmitter. They are aware of it and "were on it right away."

I've asked them to keep me posted. But with two weeks till the next Fox game, they'll have plenty of time to fix it. :)

Digital Audio is great and all, but I still find Wayne and Larry on the radio to be more entertaining.  
Kudos to WTMJ - they've done a great job syncing the radio broadcast to the digital TV signal this season.

Lots of Digital Audio and Video Equipment

I used to do that all the time with Jim and Max... but I figured there'd be no way for them to synch up the audio with a digital signal. May have to give it try this Sunday. :)

Sometimes WTMJ is a little off on the first series (mainly when the game isn't on FOX), but they fine tune it during the first commercial break and are good for the rest of the game.  Being that the Pack is on CBS this Sunday, this may occur.  Not a big deal.

Except WTMJ is NBC not CBS.........CBS has been doing a decent job at least the surround audio is in the surround channels, unlike FOX>

I think he meant WTMJ radio, not ch 4.
