Does anyone else notice a huge issue with some of the HD channels through Comcast? It would seem that a few of the stations when they are broadcasting in 5.1 do NOT have any information being sent out through the center channel. Could they possible do something this dumb? Why would they not have information coming out of one of the most vital spots for things like dialogue????? Insane! Ok, funny story....
I was watching SNL when Dane Cook was doing his monologue and I didn't have my left, right or surrounds turned on, so only my center channel was on. I could hear everything that he was saying, but all of the laughter was missing because it was mixed into the other channels. Well, I was watching it without really paying any attention and I kept thinking....oh man....he is BOMBING! No laughter! I kept thinking something is strange and then I realized that the problem was on my end of it. It really showed me just how important the 'laugh track' can be sometimes.
