    Very annoying to see that RTÉ have the ablity to move the titles for RTÉ News up and allow for a ticker across news programmes, on Budget day.

    They could easily provide the same with RTE NEWS CHANNEL the time in the RHC and the weather in the left hand corner as light text dogs/bugs.

    RTE News has a resolution of 544 x 576 on Saorview, which is embarrassing in 2020.

    For comparison...

    Sky News (SD) is 704 x 576 (also looks very poor) and CNN (HD) is 1920 x 1080.

    ...and yet we can stream from services like Netflix, Disney+ and even YouTube in 4K UHD.

    They should have carried it on RTE1 and then obviously it would have been in HD.

    Strange alright that it wasn't on ONE, it usually only used when they have clashing sports on both ONE and 2.
