Up to a point but ultimately, the quality will be down to whoever the broadcaster is using for playout and how much the broadcaster is prepared to pay. Many broadcasters seem less concerned about quality. They appear to give priority to squeezing in low res. / low bitrate channels in order to get a cheap carriage deal (on all platforms).
