Sci-Fi HD...when can we watch?

[ltownsend]

Awesome!!!!!!

Then again, maybe they will come up with a third way. But yes, it will be in 1080i or HD-lite. We will have to wait and see which one.

This article in Engadget kinda confirms our hopes for tomorrow:

USA HD / Sci-Fi HD launching on Dish Network? - Engadget HD

Oh, wait, the source for that article is THIS THREAD!

Uplinked now

Both are being uplinked now. N/A to subs yet just in Test mode on 110 channel 9431 tp 17 at 110° for USA & channel 9432 tp 17 at 110°. Check to following : EKB: Dish Network Channel Chart (Unofficial)

In the back of my mind though, I keep flashing back to INHD (I think that was the channel, the one that was suppose to have some Howard TV shows). It was uplinked, we were hopeful, then the uplink went away and it never went live.

InHD (now Mojo) is owned by In Demand, the pay per view people, and In Demand is in turn owned by a group of cable companies. It probably went away due to contract issues.

I had Mojo with Cox cable. I don't miss it at all. I also never much cared for Howard TV, which Mojo occasionally aired snippets of to try and convince people to subscribe to the full VoD service.

I have heard nothing new since Wednesday. But I am still confident we could see it this afternoon.

If for some reason it does not come on today then it will not be flipped on until Wednesday, however again, all signs point to it launching today before Mondays Charlie Chat.

 

[aperry]

Thanks for the info Scott, I appreciate your updates.

I hope you're right and they do go live today, I really want to be able to watch Tin Man in HD.

Yes you would think that they would want something to brag about on the next Charlie CHat. I would love to watch the Tin Man series in hd this weekend instead of sd that I saved on my hard drive.:

Thanks Scott. It's refreshing to see a poster with connections realize that inside information isn't always 100% accurate and to present it appropriately. We're all encouraged, hopefully this won't turn out to be another "InHD".

If they lit Sci-Fi HD up today, I'd be smiling.

My fault....it is Sunday

This may be a dumb question, but how long after SCIFI-HD becomes available does my VIP622 actually see and be able to tune to it?

 

[jself1982]

It would be available on your 622 as soon as they make it available.
