That's odd. IME, picture quality on my Roku is excellent with HD content, even with me throttling the Roku's bandwidth to measly 3.5 Mpbs.
Then again, my TV is a 10-year-old 55" Samsung, so maybe not exactly mind-blowing quality by today's standards.
Yeah, I still had the cable box connected up along with the trial Roku Ultra on Input 2. ThereMay have been ground loops or other stuff going on. Plus I used a GE inexpensive HDMI cable that I had NIB unused ( My old Govt contractor threw away 3/8 dia, pro grade HDMI by the hundreds so i grabbed a couple of those and that is what is te feed from the xfinity X1 box) But wife wasn't in love with the platform or remote ( running youtube TV as a cable-cutter)
Again it was obvious Motion artifacts and blurring , seen in live new and on-demand. The still shots were very clean.
IDK.
