yes...ghosting on some channels (mostly lower ones e.g. 3-20)...and lines that seemed to divide the picture into thirds on SciFi (in particular, but not the only place, I'm sure -- ch66). and a weird scanline on family guy that I thought was fox in general, but, well, since it's not there now, I'll have to wait for FG next week to photograph it.

hmmm, Well I think I'm getting a bit of ghosting on most channels. Some are worse than others but I think that is kind of to be expected with anything analog where nothing is forcing all of your signal to reach your tuner at the same time. The thing that gets me is I used to get no ghosting on any of the channels I watched, and now on some of them I do get pretty bad ghosting. This weekend I thought I could help it some by buying the best splitters I could find and a whole bunch of nitrogen filled cables. While it got a better, more crisp picture I also didn't seem to stop any of the ghosting. On some channels it just does it. Which makes me think maybe it is just something between the cable company and me. Not the cards or the drivers. But I don't know, maybe this weekend i'll see if I'm hyper sensitive and install the old drivers again and see if it did in fact happen with something in the code. Maybe others will have experienced the same thing I guess. If not, then I'd have to say its dumb luck with the cable connection. I wish I knew what the vertical bars were though. I know those weren't there before. I rarely see them on the 500, but I almost always see them on the 350. (not just on tv-out, in the recordings, I can watch them on a monitor of a completely different system and they are still there)
