So What was your First V*10 program?... or Channel?

[dfergie]

I actually put it on Rave for a minute... surfed the rest....then went to HD news while I checked the forums... Now watching Sheryl Crow on Rave ( Seen it several times but... ) Heh... just realized I posted this in HDTV progamming... if not appropriate... please move...

Don't have the channels yet, but looking through the guide I think I'd probably watch/listen to the music the most as well. Although they don't have that many concerts, so In about a week I'll probably have listened to every concert they have.

 

[dfergie]

Watched most of Sheryl Crow... on both my hd set and my X1... looked very good on both as do all... the Guides are off ...(not right programming on some)

here's the rave channel at a glance:

http://tvlistings2.zap2it.com/grid_one.asp?station_num=34307&partner_id=national

just click on any program and you'll see it will be played at least 4 times this week.

I think it's neat that there's a channel dedicated just to playing these concerts over and over, but sometimes I feel as if that's not really a good value.

I hope to make a catalog of all the concerts they have and list when they'll be playing

I also see the voom programing forum has made it's home into the HDTV programming.

so I can move this thread there.

Thanks ... Now days you dont know where to post... what if D* picks these up... V*D* forum...

Yeah, my first channel early this morning was also Rave. I then flipped through, watched HDNews for a few minutes, and then went back to Rave.

Good stuff...

 

[dfergie]

I agree Mark... any Hd is good... now if E* will get UHD with same bandwidth.... ( I have it on D*) but .... I'm loving the Hd news also...

 

[dfergie]

Better yet folks what is or will be your first 921ed or 942ed or even downrezzed Replay V*10 program... ( V*10 not yet in Replay guide)

 

[markdl]

Well, my first timer that I have set is for Futureworld on MonstersHD on Saturday morning, followed by Class of 1999 on Saturday afternoon, and Bubba Ho Tep and The Evil Dead on Sunday night.

 

[dfergie]

Gonna have to set a timer for Bubba Ho Tep...Btw... first timer was for Rave Video mix this morning at 4am Mdt...

I can't remember, I was flipping all over the place. Regarding Sheryl Crow, I tuned in Rave because it has the Montreaux Jazz listed and it ended up being her Come On America show. I hope Dish starts putting more info in the EPG, just seeing Music or Art or Series sucks. On HDNET they put the description for Smart Travels in but they don't on Equator.

Yeah, I've been wanting an improvement here since I got Dish. It's like that on all their channels. It is pretty pointless to list the type simply as "Series" or "Movie" when we can usually figure that out by looking at the length of the show.

Sean says its zap2 its fault they provide the guide info for Voom... There was Cavalry movie on this morning I would have loved to have caught all of... Ditto with the Dean Martin Movies yesterday....I have been 921ing the Video Mix off of Rave the last 2 mornings and archiving to DVD Ram...

 

[DarrellP]

Dish doesn't even have the Voom10 on their website yet. Maybe they'll wait until the "rush" is over? I emailed a buddy I used to work with and told him about it so he called up and got it. He already has a 61.5 dish for CBSHD and the HDPack.

 

[dfergie]

Yeah I tried to get it Sunday morning online...
