Correct, in fact I hear that CV will stay with two SD/HD boxes (4200 and 4250). They are not buying DVR-boxes. They are deploying their RS-DVR (network dvr) service soon.

Scripps network demands seem outrageous. Over $1.00/subscriber for food network. At least that's what scripps think that it is worth. http://www.ilovehgtv.com/category/cablevision/ Thread on dslreports.com: http://www.dslreports.com/forum/r23571464-iO-Cablevision-dropping-HGTV-and-Food-Network

I definitely agree that Cablevision overcompresses their digital channels. I've been able to compare Dish network and Cablevision's HD channels on my 37" LCD HDTV. I understand that cablevision still uses MPEG2 and Dish uses MPEG4 compression for their HD. For the SD, both Cablevision and Dish...

Family cable $49.95 IO Silver $72.95 IO gold $92.95

No surprise, here. Cablevision has added channels this year. Programming costs keep going up. All the cable/satellite customers will go through some rate hike soon.

Cablevision has agreed to carry EI http://www.multichannel.com/article/CA6439321.html

Are we going to get the EI free preview? The preview is only running until sunday according to the indemand website.

I bet HBO, CINEMAX and showtime would follow eventually.

Both National Geographic HD and Discovery HD are turned on here.

Yeah, I want to see more HD with cablevision. What are they waiting for? Capacity issues? Pricing issues? They also need a better looking UI on these Scientific explorer boxes.

The broadcast channels are unencrypted. The rest for the most part are encrypted.

Maybe they will add a new hd channel once inhd2 goes off the air in August.

I don't know of anyone who has been able to avoid the charge, even with complaining. One way around it is that if you already subscribe to a premium channel, then the nav package is included.

At a minimum, they will charge $5 for IO nav package along with the digital box. This charge, apparently, can't be avoided.

Other than SNY, Cablevision has no plan for new HD.

They don't carry it.

What I've seen is people without boxes with family cable, they get forced into getting a digital box and that's where this fee comes in. I know what your saying about the premiums, if you subscribe to one, then you would not charged extra.

They didn't mention SNY at all

No new HD channels, that's dissappointing. Nothing about SportsnetNY, yet . I think Cablevision has bandwith issues. They need to get rid of more analog channels and move them to digital quicker.

Oh, by the way. If you get a digital box without any IO package, you will be charged the required $4.95 IO navigation package. Even if the cable box price is the same, you'll be paying more.

Most of the premiums here are on digital already. We still have about 5 analog premiums(HBO,cinemax,encore,etc).

I only got a notice that they are shutting down Fittv in march. They removed a PPV channel on 2/1/06. So, the rumor is not true for central NJ. Eventually they will do digital simulcast with the existing analog channels.

That really sucks, the satellite providers like DISH network have more HD channels that Cablevision.
