I agree that it seems odd that everyone has to rehit the boxes to get it. Hopefully it will still be up when I get home

24 is now on in HD. I am currently at work on my (during my conference period) so I cannot see it. Is it in HD or is it stretched HD?

Hmmm, since I am at work & this is the first I am hearing of this, I think I will just schedule a recording. That ought to do the trick of updating, eh
*Edit
Well I chickened out after I read some more responses in this thread. I reauthorized both of my HR20-700's & then set my Bedroom box to record SWAT (listed as HD?) at 1700 Eastern. Wish me luck

Overall, I am totally glad to see DirecTV trickling out HD. I was really starting to get fed up but getting Fox News HD shut me up for a while somewhat. I still wish they would add the promised HBO/MAX channels and also Travel Channel HD.

I reset my box and still getting error 721. I subscribe to the HD Extra pak.
Edit-
A quick call to the D* automated system fixed it!

Only available for HD Extra Pack customers? It figures. I was hoping some new HD would launch this week such as Travel HD. So I guess this is what was meant when new HD would be added in October. Kind of a bummer!
