136 - FXALT added to 119.0W TP 18 (Not Available)

Hmmmmm... FX Alternate?

 

[bhenge]

As always, thanks for the updates!! So is Carib gone???

 

[Airblair]

136 - FXALT added to 119.0W TP 18 (Not Available)

Hmmmmm... FX Alternate?

Maybe for baseball playoffs? Are some games on FX?

 

[jcrandall]

Last year there was one game that FOX aired two at the same time. FX carried the alternate game that wasn't on your local fox. So you will have one on FOX, one on FX. Either the FX or FX Alt will be blacked out based on what is on the local.

The only problem with this option is that it is NOT FX-HD Alt.

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

That would be my guess, they did the same thing last year as well so that you could see both games on FX.

 

[JohnH]

Rumored to be a possibility of an additional game on FX this weekend.

Be advised with this update the NHL Center Ice Channels were turned on and now appear in the EPG. Strangely absent is the NHL HD channel and any indication that tonights VS HD game will be carried.

 

[JohnH]

Scott, strange your update does not show the new names for the Free Preview Showroom channels. I thought it previously had this capability.

[Scott Greczkowski]

It had problems last month too. The only way we are going to get this to run 100% is to clone you john (and store you in a computer)

It does with the information changes... my snapshot from around 1pm central still has the old names but with the TP moves. I thought it was weird but it must be in the middle of the changes as I don't even have the RAVE one.

Let me re-run it again...

Second set of changes for today

Now if only I talk JohnH out of his TID conversion list!

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

I hear he is tickelish.

 

[Poke]

Yeah just got my 211 for the BR activated in and I noticed that FXALT when ahead and put it in my Favs..

 

[JohnH]

Thou shalt not do uplink activity between 55 and 00 and between 25 and 30. Use might not get a complete version of the tables.

Other computer has info you request. Memory span is sometimes short.

I did mine an hour later and it was still halfway changed (Scott's time is eastern...and mine is central). Maybe I should add that designation to the times on the top. Hmmm...

 

[Poke]

Keep the info coming in guys thanks for all the info!

 

[BFG]

287 NFLHD became RAVE

no!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


what the f is this for!!

dish sucks!!!!

this is already an mpeg2 channel and I already get this and hdnet and hdnmovies remains down converted

 

[oggusfoo]

what the f is this for!!

Who would even have a Vip receiver and an HD tv hooked up through component or HDMI and not have HD service? If you are eligible for the previews I bet you already get these stations. There is nothing that my cable company didn't have in their basic package. At least last month they had FSN-Espanol, now they have crap!

 

[JohnH]

Worldsport would have been a better choice for upgrading to VIP series, but apparently there are some problems with people not upgrading to the additional slot for HD.

 

[drock85]

Will Showtime HD be available during the free preview?
