I'm noticing a little bit of graininess on the mpeg4 channels. HDMI is by far the best on the mpeg4 channels. If you switch from hdnet to a 4 you can see the difference. I already got lost for a while on the family channel watching cartoons.
All in all, I'm definately pleased, the espn2 is definately great. I can see where I'm going to be for a while.

VAguy,
Do a check switch (Menu/6/1/1) and see if the channels show up when everything finishes.

I am also using 61.5 for Voom. I hope my channels do go out! All I can say is keep checking. You will definately have them tomorrow.
Ok, for vurbano and Sean. I have not seen the promo yet vurbano is talking about, but they had an "have you seen ER in HD" commercial on and it was in HD. The explosion in the building didn't have any obvious problems, but I also wasn't watching extremely closely cause I didn't expect there to be an explosion on an ER commercial
I can't watch The Equalizer, sorry. I will have to come back to this channel later.

just so im sure, on my 942. even if i reset i wont see these channels in the guide at all correct ? not even red.
So any chance those new HD stations will be in HDLite by the weekend?
Figured they be good at the start, but knowing Dish?
And has any one checked to see if the new Voom is HDlite or HDTrue?
Cause didnt Dish say it was a fiber issue to why that are HDlite?

If you are using a personalized favorites list, try switching to All Channels or All Sub.VAguyinAR said:
I know a lot of people reading this thread are pained over the developments. In my case, I bought a 942 the week leading up to Christmas and had it installed the day after Christmas. I was aware of some of the talk about MPEG 4, but when my local dealer assured me that I would be able to get ESPN2HD when it was added, I went ahead and bought the 942, figuring that Dish would be stupid to sell a $700 unit to someone who couldn't get ESPN2HD when it was added. Boy do I feel like a sucker.
I suppose I could go back to my dealer, but that's probably about the only recourse, I have, right? I pretty much know what he's going to say. "Sorry, but they told me it would be MPEG 2, but they changed their mind. Nothing I can do for you."
I was holding out hope that maybe I'd get ESPN2HD and Universal. Those are about the only two new ones I really want. Tonight I find out that it won't happen, and my $700 was a mistake.
Dish just got on the wrong end of this customer, and like ohters have mentioned, they will now suffer from the fact that everyone I know will get an anti-Dish message from me.
