Why it is on my widescreen when I watch TV the picture is blurry at times, but when I watch DVDs its crystal clear. I use DirecTV.

And are there any other good Audio fourms. I just getting in to this.

Thanks

DVD has a considerably higher level of resolution than satelite. Also, most satelite signals (as well as cable) are significantly compressed to allow for a larger number of channels.
