Fox Sports 1

At least the current program listed in the guide for FS2 in correct (even though it still says FuelTV in the banner). Unless maybe the programming for FS2 was the same as Fuel anyway.

Any chance a check switch or reset would reload some new guide data?

For some odd reason my hopper just went into a random guide download

Did proper info for FS1 get downloaded?

I just did a check switch for the 3rd time this morning. As expected, the channel names still say SPEED and FUEL, but the guide data is now correct (at least as far as I checked for the UFC Prelims and Main Event).

Just turned mine on for the day, Speed logo and speed data in guide. Programming is actually truck qualifying with FS1 logo.

I just did a check switch, nothing changed for me. Right programming, wrong guide.

Mine finally updated with FS1 programming. When I turned on my TV this morning around 8am CDT it still showed SPEED programming. I was hoping this FS1 thing was just a bad dream, but alas it is not. Bye Bye SPEED.

Reset did nada.

Well most of the first half of the day IS stuff that would've been on Speed.

NOTE: FS1 programming is showing just no uplink to change the name has been done yet (which is stupid imo)

Seems like they could have prepped a little better...

How come the HD feed is not full screen? The bar on the bottom is full screen yet the video above has black bars on the side.

What is that?

The program you were watching was not shot in 16x9. I just got up and turned on FS1 and the HD feed from Michigan Motor Speedway is fine.

If they had the deal in place before the uplink Wednesday they probably would've changed name then. Programming guide is on Tribune though.

EDIT: PG was wrong on other services as well not just Dish

No. There was NASCAR testing/qualifying going on but the EPG showed the usual SPEED 30 min programs which pretty much sunk the channel like Pass Time, Wrecked, etc.

WHat NASCAR was FS1 programming. Maybe I'm not understanding what you were trying to initially say?

No it was shot in 16x9 it was a live studio show and it was in HD, but it had black sidebars.

The only thing I can think is because of the bar on the bottom they would have had to stretch out the picture to fill the screen because of the sports ticker bar.

What was being aired didn't match the EPG. The program guide was showing SPEED programs/filler...essentially what would have been aired had they not come to a contract agreement.

In my original post I should have specified that the program guide finally updated...not the actual programming being shown on air. The previous posts were talking about the program guide so I assumed my post would follow the flow of the conversation.

As an AT250 subscriber, I now have 27 sports channels I never watch, along with all the other sports on the four networks. Obviously I want the four networks, but why do I have to pay for 27 sports channels?

Hopefully, Charlie will now bargain hard with ESPN, and lower their fees, not jack them up so ESPN can spend another zillion on NFL and then come back for another rate increase. A viscous circle that has to stop.

If you don't like sports why do you have pay TV?

I did a red button reset before I left the house an hour so so ago. Just came back and the guide is correct at least through the 3pm time slot. But still doesn't show UFC for tonight.
