ESPN-HD: SportsCenter in HD tonight at 11:pm EST

Anyone see that the guide has a 30 min sportscenter listed as HD? its blacked out here in chicago cause of hte cubs game....anyone seeing this? started at 4:15 CST

Titan TV has the 6:00 ESPN listed as HD but nothing else, I wonder if it's another on location type thing or just a mistake, most likely it's the latter but I'll check it out

not until june 7th right?

All i said was that it was listed in the pg as 4:15-5pm CST as being in hd. its was blacked out in the chicago area. It was probably just a pg bug, but i could not confirm because of the black out. I know it does not start until the 7th. Thanks.

SportsCenter will be shown at 2am, 4pm, 6pm and 11:30pm (all EST) on 6/8/04. From there on it will substitute the SD version of SportsCenter.

here we go...

WTF SD hockey highlights?

Gee... They could not get HD higlights of the NHL game.

Look they changed... to just show the end...

Just tuned in, looks HD to me. :)

great a live update from tampa in Hd. very good.

They didn't show the highlights but showed the celebration...

But no "real" gameplay HD footage. Craptastic. Very bad start to the "Digital Age"

missed the beginning cause i was still watching abc, looks like they've stopped stretching, the grey banner is still on the commercials

The ads look wierd with the gray bars on the side.

Looks like the same old SportsCenters with a lot of SD hilights which are unstretched... They have shown so far 20 seconds of HD hilights compared to 4 minutes of SD hilights.

they missed a chance to show hd of the cubs which wgn did in hd

The Cubs played the St. Louis today in HD. No HD... :(

pirates vs rangers was also in hd today, let's see if we see that, prob not

I do like the set, looks very good.

going into break, bball highlight not hd, mets game not hd (not sure if it was), hockey was

More SD hilights. Gee... Both Basketball Piston vs LA were in HD. Also Mets games are in HD. Is this what we all waiting for a darn F*** year? SD...

The NHL game was in HD on ABC and they are affiliated with ESPN, yet highlights were not in HD.
Go figure!

we should use the chatroom then a million posts

Good idea, chat is open

It's late now...

I am quite dissapointed so far. But looking at a positive, the stretch is gone event the commercials.


Where are the HD cuts?

WGN, the cubs and WHITE SOX channel, do all thier local games in HD.

Which is why I would like to see WGN Superstation added to Voom, to at least get some of the game if WGN can do it over thier Superstation, which I doubt anyway.

I would very much like WGN Superstation to be added. You'd get a ton of WB content put up automatically which would be great for people who can't get it OTA. Plus all those Cubs, White Sox, and Bulls games in HD.

Even the show after Sportscenter was not stretched. I'd rather look at the grey HD bars than that ugly old Stretch-O-Vision. Gee, I may even tune into ESPN once in awhile now.

ummmmmmmm.. who cares? glad the hype is over? ok so they wasted a wad of cash on this new facility. Now where is the money to rent more HD trucks so we can have more HD events? oops spent that on the new diggs?

SO yesterday before it went live we got sven hours of poker and today the same thing?

More SD sportcenter. Not even studio this time. What a joke!!!

Maybe "The World's Largest Tivo" broke down.

yes this sportscenter is being remotley produced from LA it seems, everything is an upconvert, nothiing is HD, the graphics etc...

I'm not sure why they can't make it happen. There's an HD truck sitting at the arena right now, why can't they use it.

Oh well, time to turn the TV off and do something else

Are they back to using Stretch-O-Vision?

30 minutes to Sportscenter. Would they have HD highlights today?

Sportcenter changed to 11:30pm est

they had a baseball HD highlight from the red sox game, of course I didnt see it...

Red Sox HD Highlights
The NBA highlights were in HD for the 1st show this time

Much better for night 2 of sportscenter :)

Good job, ESPN. I guess they worked out the kinks from yesterday's disaster. Now, about that SRS Circle . . . :)

Checked it out this A.M., same highlights as last night. Not much in HD. What is weird that they did a whole segment in HD (last night basketball game) and then went back to SD later on in the show.

Orioles game was in HD in INHD and they did not carry highlights of that either. I think that they have not worked out the different deals with the different networks to get them HD highlights. This is kind of lame if true. There's a ton of HD highlights out there.

I also find it strange that ESPNHD showed the Lakers v. Pistons Highlights in HD but then late night when they showed the replay of the game that it was in SD????

I dont' understand with ABC and ESPN being partners why they can't at least show the rebroadcast in High Def. It sucks because I only get FOX in high DEF.....

DBENE, you must be very lucky, cuz no one else in the world can get Fox in HD yet... So unless you're last name is Murdoch, its not HD you're watching... Yes, how can ESPN not be able to show the NBA Finals replay in HD? Lame!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My Bad I guess the FOX is not in HD , I thought any of the channels shown by the OTA were in HD....wrong. I guess they are just digital and sometimes show HD programs.

I thought for sure FOX would have some content in HD considering they have the rights to a lot of Sports. That is lame as piss.

what he is saying is that fox doesnt do HD yet everythinh is 480p. Some satations started upconverting their stuff to 720p, to prepare to go hd later this year

FOX is by far the worst of the major networks they only broadcast in EDTV for some reason other channels get with the program and others don't.. I think even UPN was broadcasting Enterprise in HD

They'll do their first HD broadcast with this year's Baseball All-Star game, and then I know the NFL next season, and hopefully some of the MLB playoffs, I assume they have the rights to the world series again this year.

Have you guys noticed (those that subscribe to Playboy-HD) that SportsCenter has a similar background to Private Calls.

Anyway, SportsCenter has a long a way of becoming the HD highlight center. This am they were still showing SD highlights of the Game 5 basketball game. The weird thing is that they have it in HD but some unknown reason do not show them in HD.
