7 New Channels added, Is it true?

[Sean Mota]

Someone is reporting that 7 new channels have just been added at the Yahoo Group. If someone can verify, please do. One of them is Starz-HD.

P.S. changed title...

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

I hear Starz-HD is UP!

 

[Sean Mota]

Plus free ppv. They are showing boxing...

261 & 262 STARZHD,263STARZ, 264STARZF, 265ENCR, 266LOVE, 267MYS

 

[Sean Mota]

261 & 262 STARZHD

are the only new channels. I just confirmed with my wife. All the other channels had been already in VOOM. You need to reboot the system in order for the channels to show up in PG.

 

[Sean Mota]

I thought the others were already in VOOM, maybe I am wrong. My wife did not see any PPV channel so that still up in the air.

 

[Sean Mota]

Lord of the rings 1 & 2 in HD! Here we come.

 

[Sean Mota]

Ok. I guess those were not in before. You can see that I rarely watch those SD channels. The PPV will be in on the 13th for the Boxing. No PPV channel number.

 

[Sean Mota]

No Spice - HD, but that maybe just a few days or hours away... As I had the wife go through the entire channel lineup (risky proposition). I wonder what she would have said if spice-hd showed up in the line up. Ah ah.

 

[Sean Mota]

Here are the channels
STARZ HD EAST 261
STARZ HD WEST 262
STARZ 263
STARZ Family 264
ENCORE 265
ENCORE LOVE STORIES 266
ENCORE MYSTERIES 267

I wonder what happened to this one. Why it was not added? The whole package I assumed it would have included this one as well.

268 ENCORE TRUE STORIES

If you lucky she would say "hey let's put the kids to bed early and watch some TV"

 

[Sean Mota]

Are you VOOMERS happy now with Starz HD? This one is one that E* nor D* have.

 

[jabroni]

Happy as a bug. Finally, Voom scores big and trumps both D and E. I really want to watch both LOTR's in HD. I may have to pull the trigger over the next week or two and dump all the excess baggage I have with Direct.

 

[Acerone]

Very nice Why no program announcement from Voom about the new channels?

 

[rudolpht]

Plus free ppv. They are showing boxing...

What channel is this?

 

[Stargazer]

Is that spice channel going to be free as well for the next 2 or 3 months?

 

[Sean Mota]

PPV is supposed to be added by 12/13 for the free boxing but it hasn't. I thought for a moment that it was already added. Not yet.

Spice-HD will be free I am assuming. The whole idea is that it is a promotional thing.

 

[rudolpht]

PPV off the guide says No programs of this type. Are you talking about 311 for the rare NFL HD?

 

[Sean Mota]

Agree. By Dec 13th, VOOM will need a PPV channel to show the boxing match ups that were announced in press release. See Sticky for Press Release. I thought that VOOM will activate the PPV but it did not happen...

How about Encore Westerns?
