Stuck pixel in cricket transmission?

[penna]

Has anyone else noticed this during the HD cricket (last night's England match for example). There appears to be a problem with one of Sky's closeup cameras where I get a "lit pixel" effect on the screen.

First time I saw it I thought .. doh .. it's my TV! But it only appears when they cut to that camera

(About halfway up the screen, above the score)

Yeah I saw that last night and also had a moment of slight panic that it might be my TV.

I attributed it to light reflecting on a tiny spec of water on that particular camera.

Could be wrong though.

The wonders of HD.

Doubt you'd have picked that up on SD.

Not just me then

It's been like that on most games they've covered for the last week I think

Oh right.

I only saw yesterday's game so that blows my water theory. Must be a faulty camera. Write in and tell them.

Also spotted it here and had a brief moment of panic, I think it was just the one camera.

It was. The one used for the closeups of the player at bat.

I spent 3 hours checking my TV with various Dead Pixel tests, drove me mad,
Glad someone else noticed it.
