BBC iPlayer - poor picture quality
Just watched the Football League Show via iPlayer and the quality is really bad. It is as if the video has been deinterlaced so the motion looks blurry and nor very fluid at all. ITV programmes watched through catchup seem to be the same quality as the actual broadcast but it seems that the iPlayer quality is not. Any thoughts?

Why not download it first then watch it, rather than stream it.

because it's a better experience to watch the show on the TV rather than laptop?
Although admittedly for any BBC program with lots of movement - yes, the VM-OD-iPlayer is crap at the moment and I'll web stream or download the show instead. Rather a smaller screen than constantly jumping pictures.

Re: BBC iPlayer - poor picture quality
The TiVo iPlayer app just streams the content from the BBC website I think.
