[Scott Greczkowski]

Wow INHD didnt expect to see that one!

 

[DWS44]

9468 INHD ADDED TO Tp 27 ConUS beam on EchoStar 5 at 129w

:shocked

Nice!

Ok just FYI this has been confirmed and INHD also has guide data. (Here is the output from our SatelliteGuys Uplink Report tool which confirms John H's findings.)

I just checked the INHD Website and notice the Exclusivly for Cable wording has been removed.

 

[Sean Mota]

I just checked the INHD Website and notice the Exclusivly for Cable wording has been removed.

The exclusivity quote was taking off a long time ago. Like a year or two if I remember correctly.

 

[Sean Mota]

ahh crap I have also just read that not only did they kill hdnet and hdnet movie bitrates, but hdnet movies is at 1440.

what is wrong with these guys at dish and their block about 3 1920 channels on a tp?

they are getting along ok with hbo,hdppv,and tnt on a tp

Damn it. More F**** HD Lite. What the f*** is going on? Is Dish going to become like DirecTv:? G... I can't wait for FIOS to be around.


,mmmmmmmmm..... Freaking HD Lite Bug*******

 

[mdonnelly]

Yep, FIOS and (maybe) Lightspeed will be the savior of us all, eventually. Meanwhile, at least I'll be able to get some Padres and Phillies games in HD now and then.

 

[Cyclone]

Lightspeed will be the most skimpy of all with the bandwidth. Fios has hope however, and even regular cable will look good once Switch Digital Broadcast is implemented.

 

[bowens]

Sweet! FoodHD and INHD coming. That's awesome.

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

Maybe Digiblur can update us on the HD status of NFL HD, HDNET and HDNET Movies.

 

[mwgiii]

INHD is not available.

9468 INHD ADDED TO Tp 20 on EchoStar 3 at 61.5w
9468 INHD ADDED TO Tp 27 ConUS beam on EchoStar 5 at 129w

HOLY CRAP!

HELL HAS FROZEN OVER!

 

[John Kotches]

The first step to availability is adding the channel to a TP though. If the channel is not on a TP, it's an absolute certainty it won't be made available

Cheers,

 

[abricko]

I'll take it! HD Lite or not! Way to go Dish throwing us an unexpected surprise, lets hope they can also get us Cinemax and MHD then they will be the undisputed HD Leader!

 

[DWS44]

lets hope they can also get us Cinemax and MHD then they will be the undisputed HD Leader!

Not at all thrilled about HD-lite, but I'd like to see those two as well.

 

[digiblur]

Maybe Digiblur can update us on the HD status of NFL HD, HDNET and HDNET Movies.

Been snowed under with work this morning since 7am today and worked late last night till 2am. I'm catching up though...

When I checked 61.5's mux INHD was in the tables but there was NOT a stream for it yet as the TP had about 13-14 megabits of null packets. I will check later today when I get a breather and give us a report of 61.5 and 129 and include another update on the bit rate of the HDNet mux.

 

[digiblur]

61.5 Mux

 

[John Kotches]

What's HDTV3???

 

[BFG]

the demo channel

 

[digiblur]

110 HDNet mux

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

From these numbers it seems like people should be moaning about HDNet and not HDnet movies which is getting a lot more bandwidth then the other channels.

Also NFL is the lowest bitrate of them all which is really not abad thing since 95% of what they show is NOT HD.
