Hi Doc,

You are correct (mostly). The 2910, because of the Faroujda chip, does have some macroblocking under certain conditions. It's noticeable if you look for it, but I'm not sure I'd characterize it as "severe". The link I provided for Curtis to the DVD Shoot Out site discusses the issue.

As you can see, while it exists, macroblocking only gets a passing mention. The consensus of the things I read/ researched is that this is not an issue to knock the 2910 out of a set of choices. The Genesis / Faroujda chip combination delivers stellar PQ, but also brings the small macroblocking isue.
