Well the Dish guide doesn't show it. Since Yahoo says its 1 hr. 24 min I would guess that would be 2hrs for total showing time. Does that sound about right?
I ask cause I have manually set the record time. Thanks.
God they don't even show it on 7 day HDNet Guide.

I wonder which version of Close Encounters they are showing. There are about 4 different versions.
Original Theatrical Release,
Special Edition (Meet the nearies is totally different and the extra and unnecessary stuff inside the ship among other things)
Criterion Collection release from 1990 that intercut both versions with some deleted scenes
and the "final" version from 1998 which was Spielberg's re-edit and final say on his project.
The original release edit, though excellent, was definitely rushed and a little sloppy.
The 1990 version was a hatchet job. The special edition had some scenes that should have remaind on the cutting room floor. And the last release was okay.

I do find that the HD transfer of some movies is often not the best version ( Legend is a good example, in fact Theatrical versions with studio-ordered cuts have been the norm for HD release, instead of the Directors Cuts that are better 95% of the time. )
The same thing occurred with CD transfers of LPs ( For example, Iggy's poorly conceived remix of Raw Power ended up on CD instead of Bowie's classic mix that heavily influenced rock music. )

The HD version of Dances with Wolves was the full 4 hour extravaganza on HD Net Movies, so it can happen.
