Yeah, IIRC last time it was a Verizon FiOS broadcast instead of proper cable...hope it's not web-based this time.

I was the one who found the EPIX HD version and did the initial crappy capture. Sadly the fault is not FIOS. FIOS is regular FDM for TV not IP (though they do use IP for VOD services). Since FIOS has a lot of bandwidth they don't remux the signal they get from EPIX, so in many ways it is much better then other cable providers, no additional remuxing, compression or SDV. The signal from EPIX was super compressed on the regular broadcast as much as the VOD. Lots of macro-blocking in the beginning "red jungle" chase. I am just worried that its going to be crap on all EPIX broadcasts and maybe another source all together would be better.

All other problems with the capture were my fault since my capture equipment is terrible. If no one else gets traction on this, I'm going to try again and this time try to record a copy off my cable card. That would capture the original stream from FIOS. But like I said it will probably still be a compressed mess.
