This is totally screwed up. How much bandwidth is this subchannel going to use 4-5 Megabits. (Sarcasm Begins)Yeah, real wise NBC use a subchannel to show the thing that screws up digital TV the Most, SPORTS bunch of IDIOTS!!!(Sarcasm ends)

Right now the NBC Weather Plus SubChannel in my area uses between 1-2.5 Mbps and it looks good. If it were to be replaced with the fast motion of sports, at that bit rate, the encoder would not be able to keep up, the subchannel would macrobock like crazy. Everything would look like it's made of Legos.

Highly Ranked
