Xbox Picture Quality

The judder is a know issue with Uk & EU 50hz and hopefully be fixed in an update. For the picture quality, run the TV calibration wizard from the Xbox settings. My picture quality is good coming from a Sky HD box.

I too have noticed that the picture quality has dropped on Netflix. however, the quality has dropped on BOTH my 360 AND my xbox one as well

OP try all options on your tv. On my old plasma with a native 480p res I ran at 720p because it looked better. I have no idea how its technically possible. Even 1080p looked better but I chose 720p. None of this made sense to me as the tv could only natively
pump out 480p. The tv was designed to handle the higher res somehow...how I don't know. so try your tv with the various options and just take what looks best.

With anything audio and visual, it's all about what's good for you. If you don't like it, and you have the option to not use it then don't use it.

Blurring is more the Xbox 360s way of hiding bad anti aliasing, or lack of it. Anti aliasing is very taxing on the ancient GPU hardware the Xbox 360 has so you'll find this is a common technique used on the system along with some other techniques such as
MSAA and the new (for consoles anyway) MLAA. Some games may allow you to turn it off.

Actually, the archictecture in the 360 GPU allows for some very low performance cost AA, however, because of the design, it isn't the greatest AA.

If it is really that much of an issue, run VGA. I run VGA in order to correct the image since my TV is 16:10 instead of 16:9. It claims to be 1280x720 but actually I run at 1440x900 to fix the issue. The Xbox 360
doesn't work like a PC game in the matter of resolution. If you change up the res in a PC game, your frames per second will decrease dramatically but image quality will go up. On an Xbox 360, image quality doesn't change, because all it is doing is upscaling
or downscaling the image on the TV, the 360 isn't doing any extra or less work. It is designed to render in one mode, the only difference is what level of quality is transmitted. When you change the res, you don't change the quality. Now, I would say that
there is no difference between 720p and 1080p because most games are natively designed to run at 720p (same goes for PS3). Only a few games natively run at 1080p and they are usually arcade games that aren't the best looking. Some games are even natively run 600p
like some of the CODs and Halo. The only time you will really see any image quality difference is if you run interlaced vs progressive. So yes, at 1080i you will get an image that may not be up to snuff to 720p. And no, at your resolution you said, it is not
upscaling to 720p, it is downscaling to 720p, which is fine, since for the majority of games it is the native resolution.
