    1080p changed to 1080i

    Actually, that is NOT correct... The ONLY difference between 1080P and 1080i is how it is displayed... For example the receiver is CAPABLE of displaying 1080P @ 24hz and also displaying that same content @ 1080i and 60hz... the main difference are simply flags int he stream that tell the...

    Tired of paying for HD, and not getting HD content? It's time to act!

    exactly..I'd gladly (And do) take the higher quality SD thats broadcast on some HD channels, over the crappy normal SD Dish or Dtv broadcasts.. Take Scifi for instance.. the SD feeds on the HD channel rival C-band analog quality and when there is HD content that they have acces to I get great HD...

    Tired of paying for HD, and not getting HD content? It's time to act!

    it IS up to the channel..the provider simply PROVIDES.. blame the channels...Dish adn DTV have ZERO control over a channels content, they can't force TBS, or any other channel to offer MORE HD and as long as a channel is showing SOME HD, there is nothing the FCC will or can do... If you are...

    Tired of paying for HD, and not getting HD content? It's time to act!

    Ummm..you are blaming the worng people.. you CAN'T, in any way, shape or form, blame the providers.. they simply carry the signal provided to them by the Channels... TBS offers an HD channel, dish and Dtv carry it. It is advertised, by the Channel owner as HD, so dish and dtv advertise it as...

    Dish dimply wanted to retier the voom channels and call it even.. VOOM refused, so dish followed there only other course....IF voom won't let them retier, then they will remove the programming..Voom sued, so the channels remain untill the court case has been heard... VOOM, if they really want to...

    Eastern Arc?

    not possible... 61.5 is way to far off to get with one dish along with 110/119... they reason you can add 129 is because it falls into the 9-10 degree spacing range... 61.5 is almost a full 50 degrees from 110...no way a single dish could see both

    Currently 61.5 and 129 are mirrors (Except locals and a few specilized channels).. National HD content is the same...I can hit either one if I need it....(once they do the eastern arc thingy)

    dish customer service + scifi hd talk

    No people thought it because of what was NOT said.. if it wasn't meant to lead people on then why not specify lil markets?? There is no reason other than it was INTENTIONAL.. you don't leave important information like that out for any other reason

    dish customer service + scifi hd talk

    Many?? a few in some markets ..I doubt but a VERY few in each even subs to HD... besides, as was stated it was worded to calm the masses...it was intentionally misleading by not saying lil markets...just as his last statement will likely ultimately be just as misleading... maybe his "source" is...

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

    They have your money, thats all they care about....heck some of the SD channesl are so bad you can't even watch them, but dish still compresses more and adds more channels... In all honesty, the local cable has better PQ than dish does...just not as many channels..although... everythign I watch...

    As I said in another thread, IF you cant' trust the info you are given, but then pass it along as it WILL happen.. then you can't expect to not lose credibility and not get bashed...you also should not expect to be able to pass Vague, or misleading information and not get criticized for it...

    Sure..I only subbed to them over dtv because they TOLD me Sci-fi was coming in the next month (5 months ago) but that goes to show what I mean.. if you don't trust what YOU are told, but still go out on a limb and say it WILL happen.. you can't expect to then blame someone else when it...
