[Juan]

there are a few distant info screens availble to select customers.. also looks like food-hd will be the next HD freebie

 

[db2]

Thanks for the update as always digiblur.

Looks like it's going to be another week of take off the old free previews, add the new free previews and turn on a couple of locals.

 

[Poke]

Yeah would be nice to see the RSN's start showing up!

 

[JohnH]

There was substantial code shuffling in the Interactive areas.

Don't see anything obvious, yet.

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

They were supposed to launch Disney Interactive Today as well as add a few games to the other programs. No mention of The Weather Channel Interactive, but I did notice Channel 100 is heavily promoting Interactive Weather from Accuweather today.

Yes it will be removed. From what I remember it will be replaced with HGTV HD of Food HD.

 

[Stargazer]

Would we see something in the uplink info when they add the local on the 8's application?

 

[roachxp]

If channel 599 is available I don't see it, and I call E* to sub and they know nothing.

 

[digiblur]

Generally the CSR's don't see it in their system the same day its uplinked as available.

 

[TNGTony]

roachxp,

They won't know anything about this channel until about 6am tomorrow (Thursday). That is when the channel is officially launched.

The channel is available to subscribers now, but no one can subscribe until tomorrow because the CSRs computers have no info about it until them.

See ya
Tony

 

[Dishlover]

[TNGTony]

No mention of The Weather Channel Interactive...

If some people are beta-testing TWC Interactive, it's already uplinked, is it not ??

...but I did notice Channel 100 is heavily promoting Interactive Weather from Accuweather today.

That does NOT bode well for Dish releasing TWC Interactive very soon.

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

If some people are beta-testing TWC Interactive, it's already uplinked, is it not ??

Correct, they have a special feed of the Weather Channel running somewhere in the 5000's which they are doing the testing from.

 

[jgags6]

I was really hoping we werer going to see more HD channels soon, Im starting to get bored with the ones we have

 

[JohnH]

Wonder how long it takes for the TWC App to update once you select the channel?

 

[dimi1963]

Boring.... I want to know about HD channels... Where is CinemaxHD? Comon *E hurry Starwars saga is coming up soon....

 

[Mike4HDTV]

So is HDNET at full bandwidth temporarily since there is no free HD preview channel at the moment?
