All the core HD-Pak channels are being sent in their native resolution. (TNTHD, Discovery HD, ESPNHD, HDNet, HDNet Movies)
All 10 of the VOOM channels are being sent in 1280x1080i. (HD Lite)
Only 3 of the VOOM channels are being down converted since being on Dish.

That is correct, although I think that CBS HD East is being down converted to 1440x1080i I think that is an engineering issue more than anything.

Universal is in full native hd 1920 * 1080I.. Espn2 is in its native form of 1280 * 720P also.
CBS HD East is at 1440 x 1080I while
It is reported that nbc and Cbs are in 720P but we wont know offically what format it will be in when it launches!
Like bob said, hard to tell when a channel isn't even launched yet and is still in testing.cbstv said:
I am curious if Dish will even carry all HD-LIL's. My DMA has two distinct ABC affiliates. Would kind of be a waste to carry both, but unfair to only pick 1. I know other DMA's are in a similar situation too.

HD-LILs will be native?
(so the only channels that are down-resed are the voom channels?)

cbstv, to recap. The HD-LILs are not launched yet - thus no one can tell you what resolution they will be in for sure until they do launch. Currently the only channels that are being down-converted are a couple of the VOOM channels that used to be in a higher resolution. It should be noted that this only applies to a couple of VOOM channels, the rest were always at the lower resolution.
Well judging from all the griping that's been going on I assumed most if not all of the channels had been downconverted. Guess these people are just LOUD when they get mad.
I may have missed this in a previous post, but will VOOM (plus the soon to be added add'l voom channels) all remain HD-Lite from here out? If so, I can see no reason to keep my VOOM subscription, since the PQ change lately is most obvious..cbstv said:
