They should just do as DIRECTV does and if there is an hd version of any channel it takes the place of that channel and the sd version goes away. Then there is no need to have hundreds of mirror channels cluttering up the guide . I have a slew of channels locked out in my locks menu to clean up all the clutter.

They seem to be employing this with some of the EA channels, but that is all MPEG4. If they drop the SD's that are on 110 & 119... customers w/ MPEG2 systems will lose the channel all together... that would be bad...

What I am trying to say is if you have an hd receiver or dvr , the sd versions automatically go away if there is an hd version. Even better the hd channel takes the lower mapped channel numbers. There is no more 9500 or what ever virtual channel they choose. THat is how DIRECTV does it on their hd receivers. To me it is much less clutter and it doesn't lead to confusion for the subs.

It's nice having the SD channels for DVR recording. I have tons of Hanna Montanna, cartoons, and the daily Dr Phil shows recorded and it does not take up much DVR room. I record the better stuff - probably the stuff I like - in HD.

Not true.My parents have the directv hd dvr with hd locals and they also have the sd locals. They didnt automatically go away. I was there yesterday telling them about removing them from the list, but i am not sure if theydid or not, but they definitely didnt go away.

MikeD-C05

Feb 20, 2009

Well I had the hr 21 dvr last year at this time for 6 months and all new hd channels added in the national channel range became the only channels I could get once they were available. I don't recall the locals did this or not but I know that the National cable channels did this. I think there was an option in the menu to enable this, but I can't remember anymore what it was.

Feb 20, 2009

I would rather the SD versions don't go away. My wife doesn't care if she watches her shows in SD or HD and she has a tendency to pile up 10 Gray's Anatomy's and Desperate Housewives before she watches them. I don't want them taking up all of that hard drive space when she will probably watch them on the 2nd SDTV anyway!

Song Name Game Part 3!

Sometimes a thread gets so many posts in it that is can cause issues for the server so that why today we introduce The Song Name Game Part 3!

So let the game continue!

The last song was added by Bobby who posted...

One Meat Ball - Andrews Sisters

CONTINUE ON AND HAVE FUN! WELCOME HOME TO SATELLITEGUYS.US!

Here are the original rules for the game as posted by WebbyDude back in 2006. http://www.satelliteguys.us/threads/68645-Song-Name-Game

Just name a song title and the band who performed it. The next person does the same thing, but needs to list a song title or band name which includes a word from the previous entry. Pick songs from any genre.

Example:

Long Live Rock and Roll -- Rainbow

Rainbow in the Dark -- Dio

Another example:

Ride the Lightning -- Metallica

Lightning Strikes -- Ozzy Osbourne

Get it?

An additional note: we all know that song titles, sometimes, use profane words. Because this is a family friendly website it is advised that you clean up that title up a bit. This is accomplished by using something like sh!t instead of the real word. Thanks....

Star Trek: Starfleet Academy - Paramount+

Season 2 order already in hand:

'Star Trek: Starfleet Academy' Renewed for Season 2, Tatiana Maslany to Guest Star in Season 1

I've not been optimistic about this show based on what I've read so far. Seems to be aimed at a younger audience. Interesting though that Tatiana Maslany will have some sort of role.

Yeah, the foot stuff was just nasty. I kept thinking of how dirty her feet would get traipsing around shoe-less. Funny, I love being shoe less at home and never wear shoes indoors in my home for long, but seeing her laying on all her furniture with her bare feet hanging out just kind of grossed me out.

I don't know, but I still don't like her walking through the station or the academy with out her shoes. It looks unprofessional and very "hippy like" for someone of her status and I personally don't get off to feet, so there is that.

Stargate SG-1 cancelled, Atlantis renewed

Monday - August 21, 2006 | by Darren Sumner

The future of Stargate is in question today, as SCI FI Channel has cancelled the long-running Stargate SG-1, Multichannel News reported today and a GateWorld source has confirmed. The news regrettably follows the airing of the show's milestone two-hundredth episode on Friday.

Stargate Atlantis, meanwhile, has been renewed for a fourth season, with the network hoping to see that the spin-off series can stand alone, according to a source.

I think they were more of a transitional receiver bridging the VIPs to the Hopper. They were a PITA to install and were buggy. Personally, I thought at the time that they were the best receiver out there. The versatility of the VIP's with the new Hopper GUI and, by far, the coolest-looking front plate and lighting.

I don't recall that they came out just before hopper, but rather that they came out even before 722. Or could be thinking of 921.

As to the title pf the post, "rare" does not necessarily mean valuable or desirable.
