Cinemax HD On Dish When?

[David Dietzel]

Cinemax HD has been available for some time.

When will Dish add it?

"V For Vendetta" has been running on Cinemax lately and it sure would have been nice to watch it in HD.

There have been rumors reported on this site for months, but when? Only Charlie knows.

Agree, Cinemax HD is long overdue on Dish. But it has nothing to do with V for V, I so much did not like that movie (watched on DVD), that will never watch it again even on syper HD. But it is only my opinion

Which means what ??

It means that its been rumored that it was coming, but it hasn't materialized. That's all.

:haha [insert knee slapping smiley] I think highly of Mr. Ergen, but after watching him on Charlie Chat- I kinda doubt he has any idea when!

I gather that's your thought also.

Oh yeah, that was totally a joke!

I am not convinced he has a clue on a lot of the stuff that goes on.

That's getting common, ain't it ?

Last chat, I called (didn't get on) and dish said they had no information on when and to contact them (cinimax) for info. Seemed like an odd response to me.

But I heard here that dish had the contract signed, it was just a matter of them setting up the uplink to the satellite.

The question is which ones right?

 

[Sean Mota]

After DirecTv adds it, you will surely see it on E*. Can't wait until DirecTv starts making pressure on E*?

You can shoot down that "rumour". Dish has, in more than one instance, uplinked channels before contracts have been signed. It seems that if they're even close to making a deal, they uplink, i.e. test, configure, etc, etc, first, then wait for the final signatures, and then turn it "on" for subscribed customers.

I think MikeD has been reading in the pub.

Yes I think May looks good also.

INHD was uplinked for a few weeks when it too, looked immenent, then it went away
