Anyone else trying to watch Lost tonight and finding that it stutters and looks like complete junk?

I dont watch live tv anymore - too many commercials I need my FF button damn you.

Since it was ABC, then it probably does stutter and look like crap - its terrible here of late for anything on that channel it seems

I will take a look at my recording in a bit and see if it does the same.

LOST is still on?

Watched it last night off my HR-20 HD-DVR. Same problem for like the first 15-20 min of the show.

I've also noticed some problems with the audio the last two eps. Kinda sounds like a blown tweeter even though my speakers are just fine. Like a crackling on the dialogue. I think it's all ABC's fault to be honest as I never have that problem on any of the other 15 or so shows I watch.

I didn't see any problems other than the storyline is starting to suck.

Ours also stuttered from my DVR... And now that you mention it, I do remember a slight echo in the audio on last weeks episode. Glad both accounts were not just me!

ABC seems to be the worst at HD broadcasting of the major networks with CBS being the best.

Yep, mine stuttered also.

ABC cuts frames I believe and that is why it gets jumpy. I thought i read that somewhere. They are trying to keep higher quality by dropping frames and I think it sux

So what? They're trying to drop from 30FP to 24FP? That's just dumb.
