According to the Chat (http://www.satelliteguys.us/showthread.php?t=73975) FoodHD and InHD don't have signed contracts yet.
Tom Bombadil said:Really, HGTV is being broadcast in full 1920x1080???
More resolution than HDNMV???
I didn't know that.
If so, then it figures they would do it with a channel that I never watch. Where the full 1920 means next to nothing as compared to a movie or a nature channel.
Even as a dire opponent to HD-lite, I couldn't care less if a DIY show is downrezzed.
kokomogator said:Jokes on you though if you have the 622. It doesn't allow you to delete it from the HD list!!
Kirby Baker said:To properly answer this, those people with 8PSK equipment and TS Reader should be able to read the full specs of the stream I think. It wont allow them to see the picture, it will show as an encrypted stream, but they should have no problem seeing its resolution, audio type, and encoding type (mpeg 2, mpeg4, etc).
digiblur said:Incorrect. If the stream is encrypted you can not see the resolution. But we can see the flag on the type of video stream, mpeg2, mpeg4, etc.
Without doing any illegal activities, the only people that can see the resolutions are the people with modified receivers that allow them to record their subscribed channels they to a PC.
Tom Bombadil said:Oh yes it does!!
Hit Menu
Hit 5 (Locks)
Hit 2 (Channel Locks)
Move to channel list and go down to 9461, check the box in front of it.
Hit Done
Hit 8 (Hide Locked)
9461 now fails to appear in any list, even the ALL CHANNELS guide.
And if you enter 9461 on your remote, it takes you to 9460.
HGHD is now dead to me!
FOOD HD is next on the hit list. Don't want these to accidentally appear on a guide when my wife sitting next to me.
INHD can stay if it ever appears.
I've used this process many times over the years to remove channels from the guide.
Kirby Baker said:HDTV3 from 61.5 is still 1920x1080i, Aquarium show on right now, 12.4 Mbps, and looks like crap! Cheers.
Scott Greczkowski said:I understand that they are moving INHD tonight to its own transponder and are giving it full bitrate.
I also hear they are making other changes to 129 tonight at around 1am Mountain Time.
