Several channels are grayed out in the guide for me. Nick West, Newsmax, INSP, Pursuit, BTN (main only), and FSPa (Ch 622, I do subscribe to FSP 621). The channels are watchable but why are they greyed out? Anyone seeing this?

(should I post this in the main area? I am running CE software so I thought it should be here.)

I too am running CE software and the Nick West is not grayed out for me.
BTN 610.1 however Is,
As you said, you can still watch them, I would guess it's a glitch.

The only one I have grayed out that shouldn't is 610-1 BTN Alt (and only the HD version). The others you listed are not for me.

They all remain grayed now but 622 is white and 621-1 is gray.

Would it kill someone at Directv to had HD on the guide to Velocity? It should be VELHD. 408 should be UMASwHD. Moviemax doesn't say HD. Consistency people!

I think Velocity might be only HD, as its not available unless you have the HD pack.
So therefore Yes. Thats a no brainer.

The other HD Pack channels have HD on the guide. And Velocity is not in the HD pack.

Now Link TV 375 is greyed (grayed?) out. There are several channels white that I don't subscribe to. That's not new it just doesn't make sense.

There is no SD for several channels and most of them say HD. Also, there is a SD feed of Umas and they look the same in the guide. Minor issue but it annoys me.

Gol TV and Fox Deportes are not grayed out for me. They've never been grayed out though, with stock software, last week's CE and this week CE. I would have noticed it right away since all I've been watching is soccer. :D

Someday we will have Fox Deportes HD.
