Now avabile to subs
Just a minor correction ;)

9480 FilmFest - is not new
9475 is actually WorldCinema
WorldSport is on 9477.

Correct?
 
Wow!

Wow, I'm amazed how good these new channels look on the 211 and how easy they were to get! I did nothing, they just popped on! I'm assuming this was because I carry the "everything" pak, but whatever the case it was a nice surprise.

Except...

...where the hell is Starz?
 
If you read Scott's post several days ago, Starz wasn't planned to be added on Feb 1st, but it is planned in the future.
 
Others have tried to call and it does no good. I am fully expecting these channels to not be on tomorrow until I call to upgrade my programming.
 

Anyone able to self install???

Help me upgrade dish latino HD
