DirecTV HD Scrolling Banner Updated

[ScoBuck]

I can't say when the change ocurred, I don't view this too often, but I was just on the D* website and it is now showing some channels in its HD banner that I haven't seen on it before.

The channels I am referring to are BET-HD, OUTDOOR-HD, CHILLER-HD, MTV2-HD. Anyone know any more about these channels expected launch dates?

What about the others on there that have not launched yet either? They are advertising like they already carry them and they don't.

The only others I see that are not yet on the air are DISNEY-HD, ToonDisney-HD and ESPNEWS-HD. Those 3 and ABC FAMILY-HD are supposed to launch this month IIRC.

That would be great if they launched this month. My daughters are really looking forward to Disney, ToonDisney and ABC Family.

Has anyone heard when the Outdoor Channel HD is coming? D* website has it on on the scroll but not listed on the coming soon channels.

Outdoor Channel 2 HD has been up in testing on DirecTV for awhile now. I was able to tune into it a few months ago due to a bug in one of the CE's and it looked amazing.

I wish they would flip the switch already and turn it on for all!

Thanks Scott!!! This is one channel I can't wait to see in HD.

If you look at the actual channels page (DIRECTV: Superior HD Programming - All HD Channels), you'll see that it has Disney, the Family Channel, and ESPN News listed under the "Coming Soon" group.
