    Looks like Dish is kicking into PBS HD mode with the CW's to follow? What will be last? My Network TV or Telemundo HD?

    Looks like Time Warner will be the first to play chicken with ESPN not just Disney HD channels later this fall.

    Like a CSR or any other Dish employee could comment on pending legislation. :rolleyes: I understand your frustration but seriously... She's nicer than I would've been. I would've tried to sign you up for AEP or at minimum AT250, so you know you'd get just about everything when Dish and...

    D* announced it but has yet to add it. We all know what the deal is w/ ESPN and the Rainbow channels. However, the fulltime RSN's aren't part of any lawsuits AFAIK, just not a big priority for Dish right now. Honestly, I can't say that's high on my list of wants. Of course, I'm not a...

    Very long shot... The Soup is pillarboxed. The HD shows (e.g., Kendra, the Kardashians, Chelsea Lately) on E! tend to be letterboxed.

    HGTV and Food Network SD look pretty bad (VHS-quality).

    :confused: You built a time-traveling Delorean? Seriously, UPN and the WB are off the air. Most former UPN and WB stations became either the CW or MyNetwork TV.

    I don't mind HD adult stuff. However, Hustler has some of the worst looking Blu-Ray's in terms of PQ. $13.99 for their stuff is definitely too much. $13.99 for Digital Playground's or Anabolic's HD videos would be understandable. Either way. I'm definitely glad for more HD content. Maybe...

    Is D* carrying this as well? With Direct dropping Vs. and passing on WFN and ESPN U HD(for now), they don't seem to be placing as much of a premium on the non-major sports.

    Good grief, people. TV One is a channel that competes with BET. Anyone notice that Bend, OR actually got a HD PBS? This is a town with less than 100k. Yet quite a few larger metros are left holding the bag. Dish does some strange things.

    It should work just fine provided your switch doesn't go nuts. I never had a 61.5 dish. My four Dish locals come through in perfectly soft HD-lite. Sorry, Dish, I do notice the difference between down-rezzed, bitstarved MPEG4 and my fuller bitrate MPEG2 OTA feeds.

    Any rumors, Scott? I'm hoping for the Comcast suite (E! and the rest) and ESPNU HD. The Rainbow stuff would be nice, but I know better. :hungry:

    They need to move FTV and Mav on 129 as well. Both of those channels (especially FTV) macroblock like crazy.

    Reads a little like the defunct Rush HD from the old Voom suite. That was one of my favorite channels. I wouldn't mind checking Fuel HD out.

    Uplink report 4/10/9 --- BET HD

    I got it. I have the exact same package plus 3 premiums. They're showing The Cookout with stretch-o-vision pan and scan! Maybe Dish is doing the upconversion. No other Viacom networks stretch 4:3. VH1 HD is showed a pan and scan 4:3 upconverted pillarboxed version of Grease earlier today...
