Not me, I never have to zoom for The Smithsonian Channel 367. I sure am enjoying our new HD channel. The programs have been awesome. Thanks again DISH for getting it back for us.
I just recently discovered that we finally had the Smithsonian Channel in HD and I was really enjoying their programming. I'm sure I'm seeing a lot of old reruns, but they are all new to me so until I start seeing repeats I'm happy - or at least I was. Now the HD channel is no longer HD. In fact it looks like garbage. For instance, the Smithsonian bug is just a nearly unreadable smear on the lower right side. And yes, the now fuzzy wide screen picture no longer fills the screen.
I'm using a VIP722 and watching with a projector on a 104" screen which really makes the degraded image look awful.
Does anyone have an idea why and if they intend to fix it?

I just checked this morning and it's still in nearly unwatchable fuzzy vision for me. I'm on the eastern arc if that makes a difference.
Is there a way to tell what mode you are watching, 1080p, 720p, SD, etc? I am watching channel 367 right now and it looks great to me. I would say a good 720P version. I am watching it on a Samsung 1080p HD TV, HWS, and Western Arc.
How can you tell it is SD JSheridan? Looks great on my TV in WA. Could this be a EA/WA issue?
The SD is in a square in the middle of the screen and looks a little fuzzy.
That was quick! It's been messed up since at least yesterday. We start talking about it here and it's fixed in minutes.
Satelliteguys Rules! And thank you Dish.
Makes you wonder if someone is listening in! LOL
Thanks whoever!!Makes you wonder if someone is listening in! LOL
Might have been DIRT.
Had to be.. Tried a chat with Dish this morning, no luck their. They were trying to say it was something wrong on my end. Thank you Scott for having this forum.
