How do they continue to have a pixelated screens when there’s a lot of action? It’s 2021 might be time to get that fixed.

Must be your local affiliate. No issues here

Fox is basically the only one that broadcasts in 4k, and it's perfect

Same here. I just heard a sports talk radio guy bitching that our local FOX affiliate, KMSS, had the worst over the air (antenna) signal of all the area stations. He said it’s like scramble-vision at times.

Guess it sucks via DirecTv too, because that’s how I’m watching the Wisconsin game, and it’s pixeling like a bitch.

While the 4K picture quality has been nice, something about the color has been off to me. Too saturated.

Fox is way better than CBS.

NBC is the best.

On Bay Area Comcast all the Fox channels have always been utter crap. As long as I remember they have been highly compressed.

ESPN used to have a beautiful 720p signal, sent out in the traditional MPEG2 format. When streaming took off a few years ago, they initially kept sending MPEG2 over cable, but eventually they started sending the same compressed h.264 signal as the internet stream, so the cable quality has gone down.

You need a better TV, baw. That 4k looked awesome on my set.

I watched a lot of B1G games on Fox last year and the quality was crap. It’s WAY improved this year.

I can count the Iowa QB's nose hairs on BTN which is probably Fox I'd guess.

It’s always been the worst.
