The compression used by certain digital broadcasts and DVDs may cause your TV's screen to display less detail than usual, or cause artifacts (small blocks or dots, pixelations) to appear on your screen. This is due to your TV's large screen and ability to show very fine detail, and is normal for certain digitally recorded programs.
