[JohnH]

HM! Looks same here

 

[Airblair]

They're talking about it in the "NO RSN's IN HD" thread over in the Dish HD forum. So people are seeing it.

Alright! This is great news! I wonder if they plan to light each of them up as games show up on each channel??

Thanks Digi, JohnH and Scott!

C'mon guys. Red Sox. 4pm. NESN HD

I'll keep checking for others guys and you do the same. Be sure to report back here.

You can beat that bitrate either. 17mbps of MPEG4. Some of E*'s MPEG2 don't have that bitrate!

I would be REALLY surprised to see NESN HD on Dish. I am not getting my hopes up.

Hey, I know I'm not going to win Powerball, but I keep playing anyway!!!

Crossed fingers - MASN please.

Who would have access to this channel. Would Fox Sports Midwest have to be your RSN our could you see it if you have the Multi-sport pack?

You could see it in the Multi-sport pack, but the pro baseball games would be blacked out if you're not in the DMA for FSN-MW.

Oh my God, that would be awesome.

To think that I was actually having fun over this:

[bowens]

Come on and light up the rest. I'm waiting on SunSports and FoxFL. This is awesome though.

Edit: Anybody in these areas home so we can see what the quality is like?

 

[ClevelandRob]

This may be dumb questions but what HD RSNs are uplinked? Are those the only ones that will be HD? Are FSN-Ohio or Sportstime Ohio on the list?

I've been excited for the RSNs and it just dawned on me that I probably won't even have any! E* needs to give us Northeast Ohioans something already! I'll take just a couple locals!

 

[SarKen]

C'mon guys. Red Sox. 4pm. NESN HD

Yes!! NESN HD Please!!!!

I wonder if they will do like Comcast does with FSN North here in the Mpls Suburbs, they dont have it on all the time, they just turn it on when there is HD content.. of course they also put it on over one of the INHD channels...

But flipping them on/off on day of games is better than not having it at all.. Are those 2 channels having HD games today?

 

[RandallA]

"they dont have it on all the time, they just turn it on when there is HD content"

That's exactly the plan.

I was wondering the same thing. For those that can see either of the 2 live HD RSN's, does it show future games in the EPG?

 

[Airblair]
