[TWC] Dallas/Ft Worth Metro Vol II -- Time WarnerThis is a new variant of the Time Warner Cable thread for the Dallas / Ft. Worth area. Some of us thought the old one was too long (it had 3,104 replies, which is more than double the size of the next largest thread - plus it spans four YEARS of posts). Thought it was worth starting up a new one, so here it is. The original thread is still here: » [Cable] Dallas/Ft Worth Metro Vol I -- Time WarnerPulling this out of the old thread, this is my list of what TWC DFW has said they're adding HD wise, but we don't have a formal date for yet (just appear on various legal notices): By my count, here's what's left to come that they've announced in current or past legal notices. Let me know if any of these were added, and I just can't see them due to my access. 725 - TV One HD 726 - Galavision HD 729 - G4 HD 731 - WE HD (Women's Channel, I think) 732 - History International HD 733 - The Cooking Channel HD 734 - DIY HD 735 - CMT HD 737 - Nickolodeon HD 742 - Fox Business HD 743 - TruTV HD 749 - Investigation Discovery HD 750 - VH1 HD 772 - National Geographic Wild HD 773 - G4 HD 791 - The Outdoor Channel HD 792 - NBA TV HD 793 - GOL TV HD 794 - Big Ten HD 795 - Tennis Channel HD (ZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzz) 818 - HBO Latino HD 819 - HBO Family HD 821 - HBO Zone HD 826 - Action Max HD 831 - Showtime 2 HD 957 - Team HD PPV |

As mentioned in other threads, good news today, the deal with Disney also included ESPN 360! Now all we need is a Hulu app for the 360 and I think I'll be able to dump TV service all together and just stick with RR for Wideband. |

My belief and I could be wrong is that the subscription to ESPN3 is based on your video service. Dump TV service, you dump ESPN3 also. Hob |

Hob Interesting, the X-Box page describes it differently but that's definitely possible. Edit: Upon further research, it more appears if your X-Box is coming across RR as the ISP in a market with ESPN's agreement, it isn't linked to your TV service. Time will tell I guess... this really could be the key to dumping cable! Awesome! |

Re: [TWC] Dallas/HereesFt Worth Metro Vol II -- Time WarnerHere's some info on 798 (ESPN Goal Line).. » www.centurycitynews.com/ ··· NE/68706I have it. It's just a static channel, showing a non moving graphic, and playing music. No guide info TiVo though. |

Thanks, didn't really know what it was but figured it was some sorta place holder for College Football or they were starting to finally add some of the new HD that are in the pipeline. |

Re: [TWC] Dallas/Ft Worth Metro Vol II -- Time WarnerWhat's strange, after years of teeth knashing, I can't really think of any channels I'm wanting in HD now other than the Outdoor channel in HD...
Perhaps Nick or Nick Jr. for the kids, but it seems like TWC finally caught up to everything I wanted... |

Like I said back in the old thread, I'm pretty pleased with the new HD channels. I'm almost to the point that every show I watch is on an offered HD channel. There are just a few HD channels I'd like that I haven't seen in the announcements * more Showtimes (There's still only one HD Showtime) * IFC and/or Sundance * maybe BBC America? |

I'll have to check shortly, as my kid is watching her post school PBS shows at the moment. But yeah, I think the one thing I want more than any other channel at the moment is BBC America HD. |

My list in the first message had a few errors, I noticed. One of which was having G4 in there twice. Here's an updated list of what was added today. 727 - The Outdoor Channel HD 728 - Investigation Discovery HD 729 - G4 HD 730 - HSN HD 731 - WE HD (Women's Channel, I think) 732 - History International HD 733 - The Cooking Channel HD 734 - DIY HD 735 - CMT HD 737 - Nickolodeon HD 742 - Fox Business HD 743 - TruTV HD 750 - VH1 HD 772 - National Geographic Wild HD 782 - NBA TV HD 793 - GOL TV HD 794 - Big Ten HD 795 - Tennis Channel HD 818 - HBO Latino HD 819 - HBO Family HD 821 - HBO Zone HD 826 - Action Max HD 831 - Showtime 2 HD 957 - Team HD PPV Of these, there's several I appear not to have a programming level for. They are: 732, 733, 734, 793, and 818 - 957. These are the three yet to go out. 441 - KFWD HD 725 - TV One HD 726 - Galavision HD I would have liked to have had KFWD in HD when they were running the original Star Trek episodes on Sunday nights in their remastered form. Edit: I've submitted a missing channel report for all the channels added today (even the ones I don't have access to due to not having digital plus tier) with TiVo. Hopefully we'll get some listings by the weekend, but I'd say start of next week might be more realistic. |

At this moment, KFWD in HD is pretty pointless. *All* programming is upconverted SD, even when they have HD source material. I'm not sure of the exact electron flow, but while they can broadcast a HD signal, some master control bits are pure SD, with no current time frame for an upgrade. |

Edit: All these channels show up on tivo.com as "null" channels, which is what happened to 'em a day or three before showing up on my TiVo with guide info. Either they acted really quickly on my reports, or someone else had gotten 'em in before me. |

So I guess what we're still waiting for, in addition to a few HD channels like BBC America and some of the additional premium movie channels, is the multi room DVR.
Any further update on it's rollout, additional costs, etc? |

Pure conjecture, but since the 3400's they're giving out don't support it, and iGuide has major problems handling it from other reports, I wouldn't hold my breath. |

Got an email from TiVo saying my lineup issues have been deal with.
Forcing a call to see if the new channels are in today's data packet, or if it will be tomorrow. |
