It's a result of the addition of new HD channels and Comcast compressing 3 channels onto on one QAM

oh yeah, and there is digital noise in every color.... it's horrible upclose... they really are cheating us. plus their xfinity service always has problems like skipping, or channel errors.

If you're using an AV amp and look at the amp's LED display, I think you'll find the pixelation occurs when the amp switches back and forth from digital to sat/cable setting. In your YouTube video, you can hear the sound cutting off, which is occurring when the singles are changing back and forth. You have to adjust the settings on the amp and you'll no longer have the problem.

This is the same problem I had. 2 -1080p Vizios with HDMI connection. I called to complain, they added another digital box to my account and dropped my NFL Red Zone. I know retarded people who have higher IQs than Comcast Customer Service. I have DIRECTV now and I LOVE IT. Comcast is run by a bunch of monkeys. And that's an insult to the monkeys.

Make sure all of the coaxial cable CONNECTORS ARE TIGHT. Even one loose connector with intermittent ground contact will cause digital pixelation like shown in this video.  When a connector is loose it looses ground contact causing tiling.

Ours is even worse than this. Sometimes on HD channels but always during "PrimeTime" on all channels. Has anyone using Comcast Xfinity had this problem?

And how much are people paying for this SHIT every month? Not worth a damn nickel imo. Comcast has been the worst cable service available ever since they turned to this digital crap. There was nothing wrong with cable on analog, at all. There is no way to fix these issues because the problem is the cable service from them ITSELF. Every single person who has ever had Comcast box with this new digital crap experiences this. Obviously the problem is Comcast's technology being SHIT.
